The Road to BRA

The Bohol Rock Awards 2010 or BRA 2010 is an awards-night type of event where we showcase and honor the best personalities in the underground rock scene of Bohol. Awards will be given and live acts will perform in a show that will be first in Bohol. So how do we go about this awards night thing? Here is a brief backgrounder and guideline to Bohol's rock event of the year.

This event spearheaded by BYU Rock TV (Bohol Underground Rock website) is co-promoted by the different local promotional outfits that cater to the rockin' and rollin' public of this province. Here they are:

5. Metal Inc. (Neizel)
6. Plugout (Dadoi)
7. Powermind (Kikoi & Makoi)

Bohol Rock Awards on March 20

BRA fever is on!

It is already definite. The Bohol Rock Awards will be on March 20, 2010. Organized the different local production groups of Bohol, BRA will give out awards to different categories for the local underground bands.

There will be a series of events that will be held dubbed "The Road to the Bohol Rock Awards" featuring the bands that are eligible for nomination in any of the categories. The minimum requirement for inclusion is that the band should be a local underground band with current recordings and compositions.

If you don't have any works yet, there is still time to chop up some music and lyrics, and get it recorded.

More updates soon.
