September 15, 2011 (Poway) – Grab your cowboy hats and your dancing shoes, then head on out to the 2nd annual Poway Days Battle of the Bands, where rock, country, bluegrass and contemporary music bands will vie for cash prizes—and bragging rights. Try out your cowboy skills on a mechanical bull, enter a pie-eating contest, and try your luck at casino blackjack and poker games.

 

Stone & Port Brewing will serve up micro brews in a beer and wine garden. Food vendors will also be on hand. Tickets? Just $5.

 

In 2010, there were six bands competing for the title with over 400 people in attendance ! Who will be voted best band in 2011?
 

The Michelle Ross Band (original country) was declared the winner in 2010 and will be back in 2011 to defend its title. Other competitors include Myron and the Kyniptionz (rock and roll and dance band), the Phil Diorio Band (blues jam), Sidewinder (country rock), Gin Piston (rock, original and covers), and Sleepless Pacific (alternative rock).

 

The event will be held at the PVRA grounds, 14336 Tierra Bonita Road in Poway.  Gates open at 5 p.m.; music starts at 6 p.m.
