Hey kids! Congratulations to Golden Bubbles on their win last night! All of the bands were top notch, and I know the decision was a difficult one for our judges. Thanks to everyone who came out to cheer on the bands. Make sure you catch Golden Bubbles next Saturday (April 26th) with Ben Kweller! Music starts at 7:30, the event is FREE, and it'll be held outside in the Riverbend Plaza (unless there is rain). Also be sure to check out the websites of Apollo, CVS Trio, Jay Walker and the Misdemeanors, and The New Music Machine to catch one of their upcoming shows. You won't be disappointed.
