Guy here. Not in the market since pre-google, but if a date mentioned to me she googled me, I would just laugh about it and make some harmless joke. Not a big deal at all.

Guy here. I google every girl I'm interested in. A first name and a place they work is all you need.
Once I found out that a girl who gave me her number was married that way.

Hell yes. But the rule is to act surprised when they bring stuff up. Not "oh yeah I saw that on google."
This is how I found out my now-husband wasn't a serial killer.

rookie mistake there. But if he dumps you for that, he would have dumped you for something else anyway.

Strangely (?) almost nothing I'd expect to come up re: me shows up an any Google search, including good and bad.

Depends on what you found and what you said about it.
You said you found out he was in a band. Did you say "I looked you up online and saw your band. That sounds cool. How do you like it?" or did you say "I saw your band online and I really did not care for it"?
I actually feel that there are ways to disclose that you looked someone up that are totally normal and reasonable. If I found myself in this situation, I would make a joke of it. I would also then use the information that I found as a way to start a conversation about that information. After all, if you like this person, you are going to have to conversations about many of these things anyway.

Just like any relationship, look at what's in front of instead of what "should" be.
Too many people get upset and confused because reality isn't turning out to be what they had expected.
If he/she is acting ok, don't bring it up again (it's called self-sabotaging).

In this day and age, I think it is the normal thing to do as well as Facebook him as well. C'mon...YOU know you ALL would do it. Lol.
The only thing, is you are not supposed to disclose that you did it. Now that would be weird.
