The official selections from a pool of 50 Northwest bands. Bands were chosen by a panel of representatives from Battle For Warped Tour. We want to thank the 74 Northwest bands that submitted for this competition. Congratulations to all of the bands selected. Further details and official Battle rules will be sent to each band within 5-7 days.

Rather that bore you with traditional Battle Of The Band methods we have researched all formulas and came up with an overall fair and realistic way to showcase a true battle between the bands selected to participate in this competition. This will be a Battle with an outcome earned from street promotion, overall performance, and how hungry a band really is to become the next household name in rock and metal. This is an independent competition from the Ernie Ball Battle Of The Bands contest also being presented in conjunction with Warped Tour on a National level in cities throughout the States. The Battle For Warped Tour was created specifically for the local area of Oregon, Washington, and California and is presented by TCOR Radio and Mike Thrasher Presents. It is officially sanctioned by Vans Warped Tour 2012.

A large cash prize looms at the end of each round. If anyone plans on winning this competition, the stakes to do so and knock off the bands already placed towards the top makes opening Warped Tour 2012 that much sweeter!

Just remember that in battle we are tested. This is a true competition and nothing will be perfect, but it will ultimately be true and fair. Though the primary focus…it’s not always about the music. It’s also how well a band can adapt, overcome, and conquer.
