Guys,
Sorry to hear about what happened, sounds like an ordeal. I am a working musician who founded his own agency 3 years ago and I am running my first battle of the bands in March-April. I have tried to set it up from a musicians perspective. There is 5 heats of 4 bands per heat - total 20 bands. Each heat winner goes straight into the grand final, no semis. There is 5 heat winners and one judges choice from all the rounds - total 6 gf acts. The prize is winner takes all $2000 cash. There is no other add ons, just cash. So 1 x 40 min heat set, then if successful, 1 x 40 min gf set. Total 2 x 40 min sets, first place 2k. All the back line has been supplied by Billy Hydes, so plug and play. Production also supplied. The judges are independant and no act that I book is allowed to play in the comp. Furthermore it is open to covers and original acts. I am not supplying the 2k its been suplied by the venue you are playing at. I am trying to gain some exposure for gc bands in a tough market with a prize that will hopefully fund some of their future needs. If I could gain some feedback, and if anyone is interested pls feel free to message me I could use the support. If this one works, there is a strong chance I will have an opportunity to do more in the future.
Cheers, Andy.
