Week 12 - Where's Dave?

jayson@permissionmag.com — Wed, 15 Feb 2006 07:16:00 GMT

We've got the winner of the first Battle of the Bands, and it's Futuro. Head over to their site and let them know what you think. Be sure to say you heard them at Permission Magazine.

Important correction: this show includes (Brian) Amsterdam, a great young musician from Aeria Records. Unfortunately, when I talked about him on the podcast, I ended up talking about a Merseyside band called Amsterdam. If you liked his song "See You Soon" (which you should, it rules), be sure to pick up The Sore Score.

Another hour of great new music - be sure and leave a comment, let us know what you liked (or hated).

The first vote for the winning band gets a free t-shirt. when you vote, and we'll check the time against the vote - if you were first, and your band wins, we'll get your address and send you a free Permission T-shirt.

Update - we're giving a second t-shirt to one randomly chosen voter for the winning band. It only seemed fair.
