Reunions 2014 will include the 7th annual Battle of the Alumni Bands, which aims to feature alumni from all major reunion classes. They’d love to have as many ’09 bands as possible come back and perform 3-4 songs in a 15-20 minute set.
The Battle takes place on Friday, May 30th, from 11 a.m. – 4 p.m. under a tent on the lawn in front of Lockhart Hall (by the U-Store at the foot of Blair Arch). It’ll kick off with a current undergraduateband and then feature a different alumni band every twenty minutes.
For any bands where some members have stopped playing, they will have a professional piano, bass, guitar and drummer standing by to fill in for any missing band members. If you’d like to bring your current band, that’s fantastic as well. And don’t worry about equipment: they will have a complete PA system, music stands, and a back-line of amplifiers necessary for any configuration, even instruments available (drum set, piano, guitars and an electric bass). They recommend that you bring your own instrument, but you won’t have to lug all the extra equipment.
