Battle of the Bands Charity Fundraiser

Rockin' Hard and Makin' a Difference for New Orleans

The Battle of the Bands, the rocking, celebratory conclusion to the '08 Cable Show, featured performances by 10 bands of cable industry musicians and judging by celebrity panel plus text voting from the audience. This was great fun, it was for a great cause. Proceeds from ticket sales, sponsorships, and the charity auction raised over $300,000 for the schools of New Orleans, libraries and other organizations helping with the revitalization of the city.

And the Winner is. . .

All of the bands were truly phenomenal. But this was a competition with celebrity emcee Bill Bellamy, real judges, audience text voting and the whole shebang. And somebody had to win.

Congratulations to Xpanded Bandwidth of Cox Communications,
winner of the Battle of the Bands competition.

The Paul Allen Band rocked its way into second place.

The Frontline locked up the third spot.
