Thanks go out to all the bands who competed in the 2009 Toledo Battle of the Bands contest. Many thanks also to those who voted. There were about 10,000 votes, and over 250,000 visitors to the site.
And congratulations to the semi-finalists! There were 38 bands tied for 3rd place in the rock and roll category, proving it was a difficult competition.
The schedule for the semi-finals will be published on the website tomorrow. The sem-finals will be held July 3-4 at the Red, White, KABOOM Independence day celebration in downtown Toledo.
Winners to be announced
You voted, we listened! The Semi-finalist winners will be announced shortly.
Reminder
You know that old song, “You Always Hurt the One You Love?”
It’s happening in this year’s Battle of the Bands. And it’s making us
scratch our heads a bit. All those great ratings and votes for the
bands you support are backfiring due to foul language used in the
comments. And those great ratings get removed.
You know the “7 Dirty Words You Can’t Say on TV?” Think about it. If
you’re unsure if a word is acceptable or not, JUST DON’T USE IT.
