beetlejuice Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 In all seriousness, opinions about battle of the bands aside, why would you hold the final in a hotel and not a proper venue, which would showcase the bands' sound better with the benefit of a proper sound system?

The Milner Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 Ill assume they have a deal with the Tree Tops, it wont be cheap to hire that room out.£3000 grand plus other prizes, this must be sponsered, there is no way they will make that kinda money back off of ticket sales alone.

Eupraxia Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 Was it L. Ron Hubbard who uttered "If you want to get rich, start a religion"?Possibly the only nugget of truth he ever delivered. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont forget that the competetion is being judged not by the sound but by the content of the lyrics..The lyrics has to be from the Bible or be able to depict Bible based teachings..It doesnt matter what genre of music...it could be rap, reggae, rnb, pop, soft rock or heavy metal. Need I say the last group that won the price 2 yrs ago was a heavy metal band? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balez Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Can we make an ab-music satanic metal band and enter?Yes you can...but you've gotta also play by the rules too. Your band will have to come up with an original song with Bible based lyrics...The competetion is for everyone regardless of your religion or beliefs..the key is playing by the rules.

Getting our youths to know God and passing the message that the church is not such a boring place after all...we rock!!! Most people are under the false impression that you have to be righteous and holy to be a member of the church. The Bible says, for all have sinned and fallen short of God's glory..." we are humans...our imperfections make us who we are today...the Bible based principles guide us to do right..they teach us to lead lives of peace, love, integrity...lives that would be worthy of emulation.

Seems pretty underhand not put the rules on the website or the adverts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
