We saw this opportunity flagged up on the net, and thought some of our lovely users might want a chance to support Snow Patrol and the Happy Mondays at the Versus Cancer gig at the Manchester Evening News Arena on Dec 12th (it’s ok, it’s a Saturday, you can make it…). You’ve got to be quick though – entries close on the 30th of November.
To be in with a chance of winning, bands need to submit a demo to us which will then be judged by a panel of top music pundits.
If you’re interested in taking part, all you need to do is to send an mp3 (or myspace link), full contact details and a brief biog of your band to band@versuscancer.org.
