Basilica Block Party Battle of the Bands!

The Basilica Block Party is July 10th and 11th this year. There are actually a few pretty good acts this year for Basilica, they must have fired the person doing the booking the past few years. Because the past few years the Basilica Block Party has had some real clunkers as far as headliners, but this year they have the Black Crowes, The Jayhawks, Counting Crows, The Hold Steady and Tapes n Tapes.

But before the party even begins there is a contest at the Fine Line Music Cafe that has been going on and will continue for the next few weeks for a spot on one of the stages at the Block Party.

So, Thursday, June 18th there will a round of Battle of the Bands at the Basilica Block Party. Fine Line tickets are not needed for this event, however, there is only a 4 dollar cover at the door. There are three bands competing at this round: Dim Light Shining, Stealing Seconds, & Postina.

If you're looking for something cheap to do on a Thursday night it looks like this is your best bet!
