Battle of The Bands - August 2024

 


Hey, hi! Glad you stopped by ;-)

The Battle of The Bands (BOTB) is your basic Which-do-you-like-best contest where the one that gets the most votes wins. All you have to do is show up (the 1st and/or 15th of every month) give a listen and cast your vote in the comment section. Votes will be tallied and the winner revealed on or about 8 days later.

 On the roster for today were two covers of an epic song by Motown's own King of Soul, Marvin Gaye, but that wasn't happening, so I'm back to thinking about all the glorious rain we've been getting!

First up:

There you have it, folks! Which do you like best? And how come? Let me know in the comment section below. Oh! And, before you go, hop around and see the rest of today’s battles (participating sites are located in the top right sidebar of this page)

Happy August, everybody! Be sure to join us on the 8th for Battle of the Bands results and a special birthday celebration of our favorite Emcee!
