Like March, NCN roared in like a lion during round 1. As you know, in the first weekend,
Those Wolves Actually Happened,
Seven Shades of Grey,
Zilch, and
L-Ski moved forward into round two. Last weekend,
Sylvanna Joyce and the Moment,
Centerlink, and
the Ricecakes made the ranks as well. So while the weather may be coming more lamb-like, the competition is only going to get more ferocious.
Check out these photos from the last night of Round 1, at
McGann's pub, all taken by
Santana Photo. The line-up was packed, with 9 bands on the bill (although only 7 acts performed).
The bands are competing for a tantalizing prize: a fully recorded EP with F Nice Records, the NCN trophy created by functional art creators, Green Side Up in Allston, a . All 8 semi-finalists will be awarded a prize pack through UNRegular Radio and F Nice Records that will grant them 45 minutes of live audio and video recording at a broadcast party at UNRegular Radio known as the series "Live From the End of Time".
Round 2 takes place this coming Saturday at the middle east upstairs. Tickets are $12 at the door but you can get $10 tickets online
here. Don't forget to vote online for your favorite band at the
No Contracts Needed website. And of course,
"like" F Nice on Facebook, and
