DBP round two begins Wednesday
Round two is when the Dayton Band Playoffs really get interesting and dramatic. Every show is a head-to-head battle between two bands. With one band being eliminated at the end of each night.
The 16 bands with the most overall votes from round one have made it into round two. Round two begins Wednesday, July 23rd at Canal Street Tavern.
The standings from the first round were announced this week and are posted on the bar’s website www.canalstreettavern.com.
The top five are: 1.The Joose Box 2. Alec Delphenich Trio 3. Dangerously Hot 4. Magic Jackson 5. Oxymoronatron.
So now the question is, who will win?
Can The Joose Box, a Ben Folds meets the Arctic Monkeys piano-duo, keep momentum in round two and win the Playoffs?
Or, will the robot-power of Oxymoronatron prevail?
And do not count out the Alec Delphenich Trio who went very deep in the playoffs last year boasting a smooth Jack Johnson style.
Remember in round two bands are required to play two sets which may pose a problem for young bands. In round two (and all rounds) fans determine the winners each night. So it pays to support your favorite local bands.
Click the comments and tell me who you think will win the 2008 Dayton Band Playoffs at Canal Street Tavern. Let the trash talking begin.
Upcoming DBP dates: Wednesday, July 23rd - Oxymoronatron vs White Pongo. Thursday, July 24th - The Joose Box vs Goodfoot. Sunday, July 27th - Alec Delphenich Trio vs Stump.

White Pongo was so good when they played The Joosebox. They were like gods, like they weren’t even there… p.s. The Miami Valley Silverbacks wants their gorilla back.By Annon
