[BATTLE] The Canalside Battle of the Bands returns this week with a new edition of their weekly contest. This Friday, June 26 four area rock bands will battle for the opportunity to open for the Sublime tribute band, Badfish when they come to Canalside for a free concert on July 23. Bands are judged by a panel of local professionals on quality of the performance, stage presence, and audience engagement, and each participating band is paid a $100 stipend just to compete. If you’re in a local band, it’s not too late to sign up for next week’s battle of alternative rock bands, who will vie for a chance to open for Iron & Wine.
