(SALEM) - The Salem Public Library is looking for the best local bands for its 2nd annual Battle of the Bands competition.
The event was a sell-out show in 2005, giving six area bands excellent exposure and a chance to win new fans.
Applications are available now at www.salemlibrary.org or at any library service desk. Completed applications, a $20 non-refundable application fee, and a recorded sample of each band's original music are due at the library no later than Friday, October 27th.

The winner will be featured in a showcase performance to conclude the 2006-07 Library concert series on April 6th, 2007, and earns a prize package that includes:
A copy of the showcase performance on CD
Eight hours of recording time donated by Happy Fun Time Recording in Salem
An on-air interview with Matt Richards at KSND 95.1 FM radio
Tickets are $5 in advance/$7 at the door. Sales begin Friday, October 20th at all Library Circulation Desks.
