Dear Readers,
Together we represent many different nationalities, many different faiths and creeds, many different shapes and sizes*, some of us may even be chicks – no, it’s true – just hear me out! But if there’s one thing that unites us all, I’ve discovered it is our love of imaginary bands.
Now I know you are sat there thinking ‘my imaginary bands can kick your imaginary bands’ ass, any day buster’, but how to prove this? I’ve decided to set up a Roman gladiatorial style Battle of the Bands contest and I’m inviting your entries. The exact format will be decided by how many entries I get and my entirely arbitrary rules and decisions will prevail. Will your Beatles-influenced power pop trio, trump someone else’s grindcore collective, or will they be beaten in their turn by my latest soul diva, or something stranger from the furthest reaches of the universe? I will reveal all in my review of the show.
In order to be eligible I want you to email me your band name, members, and some info – style, bio, song/LP titles, even artwork (as long as it’s original) – I need titles of at least 3 songs (lyrics are a bonus too), additional bonus points will always be awarded for making me smile and great names, give me too much rather than too little, people. Keep this frequency clear I will contact you again at the weekend, depending on response to announce the heats – spread the word. Maximum of 2 entries per righteous dude / hot chick. Let battle commence, feel the force … etc, etc.

I have set up a separate page over on the left hand-side, because I like organising stuff properly. It’s how I get my kicks.
