Congratulations to local rockers (and No Country Acme Alums) Chrome Pony who will join Sol Cat and Future Unlimited as winners last night in the annual Road To Bonnaroo competition at Mercy Lounge and The High Watt. Idle Bloom and Penicillin Baby took second and third place, respectively, in last night’s finale.
As most you probably know, Road To Bonnaroo takes the idea of a “battle of the bands” outside the box a bit by encouraging showmanship and stage effects (and, often guest appearances) along with their performance to help woo the voters. The good thing for the voters… it’s a really fun night, and a great way to see 10 bands give it their absolute all.
Congrats to Chrome Pony! We’ll see you on The Farm this summer!
