Although the crowd turnout was small, the bands didn’t let that keep them down as they rocked hard at the second annual Battle of the Bands on Thursday, March 15. Eight bands competed for the grand prize of $300 and a spot to play at the college SGA year-end student bash.

Each band received a 30 minute set, which included set-up and take-down. If the band went over the 30 minutes, the result was an automatic disqualification from the competition.

During the set-up time the Tyger Tawk Communications Club, which sponsored the event, provided crowd participation games, including throwing paper airplanes, hula-hooping, and bubble blowing competitions. The last game of the night was a dance-off in which the winner was awarded a keyless remote entry set.

After much deliberation, the judges finally crowned the progressive country band Lower Middle Class from Alva, Okla., as the winners.
