Last Minute FAQ’s

For those of you hurrying to get in your applications, here are a few last minute questions to help you out:

DEADLINE TIME: Has officially been pushed back until 11:59pm PST.  But please note that the Music BC office closes at 5:00, so you will not be able to call with questions after that time!

STATUS: Once you hit “submit”, we have received your package. It might take some time before the light changes to green and “received”, but don’t fret – you’re good to go!

TIME STAMPS: If you were able to hit “submit”, we received your application and it will be considered, regardless of the time it was stamped with.

SOLO VS BAND: If you are unsure which way to categorize yourself, here are a few things to consider – if you say “band”, your whole band becomes part of the contest legally – they are all required to be at all the events, and will all have to sign the required contracts. If you say “solo artist”, you can still invite musicians to attend the Boot Camp with you, and perform at your showcase, but you are solely responsible for the contracts etc.

AGE RESTRICTIONS: Every band member must be 19 by the deadline for application (April 30th, 2010)

WINNER ANNOUNCEMENT: The top 20 will be announced live on-air at 100.5 the PEAK fm (and online at: http://thepeak.fm) at 3:15pm, Monday May 31st, 2010.  All applicants will be emailed after that time with their status.

And GOOD LUCK!
