In case you are confused as to what can and cannot be trademarked, you could take a look at this: http://www.thinkinglike.com/Entrepreneur-Word/Entrepreneur-Trademark-Q-And-A.html Read section five, specifically. As I stated in a previous post, I don't think I, or the band in California, would have a strong case to trademark the name "Volumes". It is one word and a word already commonly associated with music, unlike a name like "Soce the Elemental Wizard", which would be considered a "strong" and/or an arbitrary trademark. At best, "Volumes" would be a descriptive and/or a suggestive trademark.
As for the logo I use, it may be possible to trademark that (and to copyright that logo as an "artwork" - see the third paragraph of this portion of the "Trademark" Wikipedia entry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trademark#Comparison_with_patents.2C_designs_and_copyright), but I don't think that would grant me any claim to the URL, which is simply a text-based property, not a graphic property. (If a MySpace URL can be considered a property at all - maybe a rental property!)
I hope this answers your question.
