 * Hi,
 * I was wondering if there was a plugin or hack available for this. Since I’m using
   wordpress more as a cms then blog, tags play an integral part. So as an example,
   the webpage is a list of current band tours. I use categories as the tour name
   and the tag is the band name. Now, i want to have a link to the band’s website
   and other things. I prefer to enter this link when I enter the band as a ‘post
   tag’ or have some way to have a database with all the additional information 
   as there are a few things I want to add for each tag. Is there some way to add
   additional fields other than just a description to a ‘post tag’?

 * To add to my question. I’m reading about custom taxonomies and a plugin called
   Custom Field Taxonomies. Wondering if what I want to accomplish can be done with
   something like this?

 * I’m guessing I have to add to my database. Anyone can point me in the right direction?
