Warped Tour Doubts (Battle of the Bands)
I am from the Sandiego area, and id like to ask a couple of questions about the contest and i would like an honest answer...
i have been voting for this band "5 More Days" and every day i would go to vote, they would be in the top bands each week...
but i saw the pics you had for the winners and its a bit doubtfull really:
mondays alibi was a real pain because...they dont have everything to even enter the contest and according to me, they have to at least have a song on their profile, and they dont...
then one of the other bands isnt even in the area...>_> biiig bull
then this...
"Starting 02/29/08 Fans will determine which bands will be eligible to win by VOTING for all eligible bands. The Top 20 voted bands in each city, will be reviewed by an industry panel of judges. Four bands will be selected out of the eligible 20 to play live in their hometown on the 2008 Vans Warped Tour."
"Upon registering as a band on the site, your band is given the ability to select a battle to join, and a venue that you'd most like to play at. After that is selected, your fans will need to vote for you to get you in top consideration to play on the tour. The Top 20 bands BY VOTES for each venue will be considered to play live."
none of the bands that won, never appeared in top voted...was there another chart that i was not aware of?....
i dont know if it was a problem of the band not checking messages, i dont really know, but this is a real problem for earnie ball, and other contests, you should really detail them out to other bands and in your page, cause it may cause confusion...
and im gonna guess every vote they made was a waste, and those bands that won, didnt struggle...
Edit*:
i assume there was another contest held for this OUTSIDE from the site of battle of the bands, but didnt it require you to enter that site to register to even win the contest?...it seems absurd
