Local bands, win Rocking the Daisies 2013 slot
Local Cape Town bands have the chance to play at the Rocking the Daisies Festival, thanks to the collaboration of Carling Black Label, Gourmet Boerie, Studio 7 and Rocking the Daisies.
As of last week, bands have been given the opportunity to enter Gourmet Boerie's acoustic sessions, which in return will act as the competition platform for the Campsite Gig Rig Slot at the 2013 Rocking the Daisies Festival.
Bands can enter via the Studio 7 portal, at www.studio7.org.za/championbandsearch until Tuesday, 3 September, 2013. Bands need to submit their name, contact details and a link to one of their tracks. Four finalists will be chosen to play at Gourmet Boerie, on Thursday evenings from 8pm to 9pm during the month of September.
As part of the criteria to become the champion band, artists are encouraged to get as much participation from fans and followers on Twitter using the hashtag #ChampionBandSearch. The band with the most number of unique tweets, during an allocated period of time, will be the ultimate champion band winner. The winner will be announced on Tuesday, 1 October 2013.
At each acoustic session, fans that attend will be allowed to enter spot giveaway prizes and enjoy Gourmet Boerie's Special, offering of any boerie roll accompanied with original shoestring chips and a 330ml Carling Black Label beer for only R55. At each session a fan will be awarded a package deal comprising one double ticket to the 2013 Rocking the Daisies Festival and a Memphis Tent ticket to the value of R7200. Alternate prizes that will be given at each acoustic session include Rocking the Daisies tickets valued at R600 each and Studio 7 tickets valued at R200 each. Fans who are seen drinking Carling Black Label at Rocking the Daisies will be entered into a raffle, and one lucky winner will be upgraded to the Memphis Tent.
