The applications are closed, the places are filled and the battle lines are drawn…
‘Battle of the bands’ competitions come in for a lot of criticism from bands and fans alike for being unfair, troublesome and not particularly helpful to the music community. However, the folks over at the Leopard in Doncaster are promising that this year will be different. We hope so…
On the right you can view the launch poster and the lineup for the first round (click to zoom)
Here at DbR we’ll be keeping you up to date with the winners, bad losers and all the gory details coming out of the the Venue’s upstairs battleground.
Hotly tipped bands for this year’s crown include: Girlspit, Lullaby Junkies and Up Against the Wall Motherfucker; however, battles of this sort are always full of surprises and are about making a lasting impression on the judges – so it really is anyone’s game…
