This Thursday, the third annual Battle of the Bands will be held in the newly renovated auditorium in Kingston High School from 6-10 p.m. All of the profits made from the ticket and t-shirt sales will be given to 2009 KHS graduate, Keith Gurgi, who suffered from a diving accident last summer and needs money to help pay for medical and personal costs.
Tickets will be on sale this week in the cafeteria during lunch periods and at the door on Thursday night. Prices are $7 in advance and $9 at the door.
Several bands, such as If All Else Fails, Y.I.C., Corporolite, Seminal Stains, Depot Street, and The Paper Planets will be performing.
"The bands this year sound really great. There will be alot of diversity in the music, with genres including hip hop, powerepop, and ska," said Senior Battle of the Bands staff member, Hannah Sterrs. "Come and support the school and the bands, and most importantly, have a great time!"
