I'm going to be a guest judge for QC Rock Academy's Battle Of The Bands. A super cool music school that takes field trips to see Cheap Trick for god's sake! So, you know these kids are actually interested the school they attend. A far cry from anything I did when I was in school.
WHAT - QC Rock Academy "Battle Of The Bands 2014"
There will be 5 bands playing, each performing 4 songs. (3 Cover songs, 1 Original) The kids competing are between the ages of 12-17 years old.
This is not necessarily a 'talent' contest. Bands are in charge of promotion for the show and will get one point for every person that comes to see them. They will be judged on 5 categories on a scale of 1-10.
The winning band will get a recording session at Skylark Recording in Davenport to record their original song.
