No Contracts Needed

The No Contracts Needed Rompetition is in its fourth year and it's better than ever. Featuring over 50 acts performing throughout the course of two weekends (2/17-19, and 2/24-26). For less than the cost of sponsoring an orphaned baby in the 3rd world, you could be spilling beer on some of the best, mostly, local bands. Tickets for each night are $10 at the door, but they're only $5 if you buy them here in advance.

The top 8 artists won't be going home empty handed. Each act will receive the “Live From The End Of Time Prize Pack”, which includes 45 minutes of live recorded audio and HD video, live radio broadcast of your music, a Vaporizer from Boston Vapes, and a Boris FX Grafitti Package. The Grand Prize winner will receive a fully recorded EP, provided by F Nice Records and engineered by Rick Star Recording, and 100 copies on CD.
