Battle of the Bands '10 Kick-off


PTSA had our Battle of the Bands Kick-off during lunch hour. We high-jacked the Plaza Stage and were entertained by Mike Whiteside, Chris Whiteside and David Edmunds. PTSA handed out BOB packets along with BOB poster contest paperwork. In case you didn't get the paperwork, and you want it, go to this link to get the entire packet. Toward the end, you will find the poster contest entry form and rules if you are only interested in that.

Last year, a band from our school, The Fillmore Odd Generation, took 2nd place in the State competition! WOW...not shabby for our first appearance in BOB. The Fillmore Odd Generation featured current THS students, Mike Whiteside, Chris Whiteside and THS graduates Matt Dumas and Josh Beahm. They were fantastic!

This year we would like to make another good showing at the BOB, so get practicing, get the paperwork, and get ready to play at our BOB at THS sometime at the end of January or very early February. The winner (and possibly 2 winning bands) will go to Regional competition at Enterprise High School. The top 3 bands at Regional will go on to the State competition.

Bands can be Rock, Country or Jazz.

Feel free to post questions, and I will answer them here on the blog. Good Luck!
