This schedule is comprised of three finalist bands from each of four regional competitions, plus a “wildcard” band (Disq) selected from all Launchpad entries through a worldwide voting system of listeners on Broadjam.com. The bands are each slotted to play three songs, and will be evaluated by music industry professionals on expression and creativity, technique, time, blend and synergy. In addition to the written evaluations, bands receive a private verbal critique.
