Last Band Standing 2012
Our second annual Last Band Standing event is March 1, 2012 at the Lincoln Theatre!
Band Together is supporting local music talent with a true battle to see what band will take the inaugural crown. Five music industry judges will vote to determine the fate of one winner, who will walk away for a cash prize and earn a slot to play (and get paid again) at our Annual Event. This event will help us with our goal to support local music as well as our 2012 nonprofit partner, Urban Ministries of Wake County. We will be doing a canned food drive to support Urban Ministries' Food Pantry. Bring cans to help your favorite band and our community! How the vote works: There will be 4 judges from the music industry. Each judge will have one vote. As well, each audience member receive 1 ballot to vote for their favorite band. As an added bonus and to help our nonprofit partner, Urban Ministries, for each NON-CORN can of food you donate, you will receive an additional voting ballot. We will tally the audience vote ballots and that will count as one vote. There will be 5 votes total.When: March 1, 2012. Doors open at 6:30, show starts at 7:30.Where: Lincoln TheatreWhat Bands:
