where abouts / what's their or your location? I'll be adding every band to the first post so people don't have to scavenge through the thread to find every band.

[P.B.]

I was at a battle of the bands recently in my area and these are the 2 bands that came out on top, by the way, from Michigan.

times and places (http://myspace.com/timesandplaces)
these guys sound kinda like red hot chili peppers, they got first place

naked picnic (http://myspace.com/nakedpicnic)
a bit more generic and emo sound, but I think they're good, these guys got second.

I had to edit to add a few more I forgot about, these 2 are no longer doing shit basically, one's a solo act that's a friend of mine, the other is his old band.

the audio project (http://myspace.com/theaudioproject)
both of those are pretty emo.

And this last one is just a fucking awesome band, that played around here once, they're not too big, but they're from L.A.
daybreak ends (http://myspace.com/daybreakends)

Don't forget: Montreal: The Blacks.
