Showcase

Local bands: get with it. The Jan. 10 deadline for entry into the annual Arkansas Times MUSICIANS SHOWCASE is drawing nigh. And when I say local bands, I don't mean that literally. Solo acts are welcome, too. The only stipulation is that you have at least four songs of original material. All genres welcome. Sixteen finalists will be chosen to compete in semi-final rounds, which will run from consecutive Thursday nights, from Jan. 31- Feb. 21. The four weekly winners will square off at Revolution for the finals on Friday, March 7. The winner gets a big prize pack, including a performance slot at River Fest.

New this year: Band's can save the dollar and a half on postage by filling out an online form and uploading mp3s to our site. Go here; should be self-explanatory.

As Judge Wendell Griffen says, courage is not a vice (though critics seem to fault him for having it) but a virtue. /more/
