new eyebrowy video for brightnewsounds.ie
This Bright New Sounds thing is a Vodafone/Phantom/Hotpress battle of the bands buzz. The final is in Tripod on April 3rd (get tickets here.) The story: bands uploaded tracks to the website, the best 20 were chosen by a bunch of judges and now they will be whittled down to the best five based on how many times they are downloaded, who will then play live and one will win this stuff:
April 4th Winning band will be signed to Universal's new NoCarbon label
April 4th SonyEricsson K850i for each member of the winning act
April 4th 1,000 euro Vodafone credit for each member of the winning act

Rather worryingly, there don't seem to be any post-May plans. But I'm sure there are! Don't you worry, little bands. Just don't call yourselves Lucia and the Evanses
Battle of the Band competitions: the original X Factor.
(PS: Detective Jim Carroll made an excellent post on this competition before)

oh sweet jesus,
i normally really like eyebrowy, but that was awful
good luck to the bands involved, etc...
embarassingly awful.
that was a disgrace. Well we all know that there is a nice little community in each others pockets but the least they can do is make us laugh. I will stick with Jim's assessment of the competition and go back to what I always do with eyebrowy.... ignore it
Jesus that's embarrassing
