How the Bands Compete

Phase 1 A full 20% of scoring comes from online voting - the ratings you receive on your competition page - online voting will begin daily for a 2 week period in July each year; you will be notified of the dates

So, let all of your fans know about your Battle of the Bands entry, and tell them they can caste a new vote for you daily through the rating system on your page.

We also strongly recommend that you put a link to your page on Myspace or Facebook and anywhere else you have a presence on the web. Ask your fans to do the same.

To increase chances of winning, we also suggest poster. Print out copies, add the name of your band, and then post it for all your fans to see.

Don't forget to mention online voting at gigs you may play. Voting will begin daily for a 2 week period in July each year; you will be notified of the dates.

We can add your calendar events to our calendar events for people to check you at other venues. Just send us all the times and dates of your event.

Phase II Immediately after online voting closes, Treasure Valley Revival LLC will confirm the eligibility of the top bands. We'll then send the links of these bands to a panel of music industry professionals who will help Treasure Valley Revival LLC & Associates will pick the TOP Bands (depending how many bands get involved and how close the voting is)there may be a play off for the Finals at Western Idaho Fair. These bands will be placed in a random order on our Website in August and contacted via phone and or email to be in the Finals.

Phase III The Finalists then will perform in front of a live audience at which time the final judging takes place from a designated group of industry professionals. Who will be crowned Band of the Year? Will it be Your Band? The only way to find out is to signup.
