Battle of the Bands 2008
 


Newmarket based band ‘Tell it to the Marines’ were winners of the final of this year’s Battle of the Bands competition, receiving first prize of £500.

Heat one winners Ascendia were named runners up and received £250. Both bands fiercely fought off competition from Dead Patrol and Highwayman’s Hitch.

The Final was staged before a sell out crowd in Newmarket Memorial Hall on Saturday 18th October; organisers were pleased it had been a huge success. It was highly entertaining evening, and the audience were very enthusiastic.
 
How to Kill a conversation were invited to play this year’s opening set and First Copy last year’s runners played a farewell set.

Everyone went home happy!
