Vote for your favorite local band to play the Ernie Ball stage at the 2008 Vans Warped Tour in Virginia Beach [1]. According to the Battle of the Bands Web site, here is how it works:

"All bands who enter by 6/01/08 will be eligible to win a slot to play live on the Ernie Ball stage at the 2008 Vans Warped Tour. 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."

That means local bands still have a chance to join the battle. A quick scroll through those already battling for a spot in at the Virginia Beach show include The Trauma Dolls, Duburbia, Syndicate, Apollo, Construkt and Celebrity Gunfight. Go check it out [2].
