So my band Maple Grove played this past Monday (Dec. 3) in the opening round of the Velour Battle of the Bands. We faced some decent competition and we really sucked our set up, so I was a little surprised when we were announced as the winners of the Monday night round. But as I have thought more about it, it is more and more evident in my mind that we were the clear cut winners. I am just super stoked that we overcame a few trials on Monday to get the win. First of all during the sound test I turned off the snare on my snare drum so it wouldn't buzz into the mic, Well I forgot to turn it back on for the first song, so we started off a little on the wrong foot. Then on the third song Seth's guitar pedal went out. And finally during the whole set John's low E string kept slipping off the neck. But it turned out okay and now we are in the finals on sat.
I just want to thank everyone for coming out and supporting us that night and I expect a lot more people to show up on sat night. We have a few surprises in store for our fans and ready to freaking start the party. See you all Saturday (Dec 8) night, here's the deets:
