All Indy.com contests can be found in the contest block in the lower right corner of the screen. (Online Development for The Star)
The public has voted for the top three and they are scheduled to play LIVE at the Vogue on Friday, Dec. 7!
Don't miss your opportunity to see Shadeland, Red Light Driver and The Last Domino on stage. The party starts at 8:00 with the video premiers and will continue until all three bands have played.
Come support Indy's local music...in sight and sound!
You can see their videos in the contest block below.
Word on the street is that passing up an opportunity for both free money AND free publicity is not a very good idea. Bands need to check this out.
$1500...I wish I had a band.
Just an FYI - the rules say the deadline is 11/26. The signup says the deadline is 11/10.
I like 11/26 better.
No worries- registration is open...until the videos are due! November 26th it is! All videos are due that day at noon. No excuses...don't miss out!!

Check it out!!!
The videos/voting appear to be up now (check the contest block for a link) or just go straight there.
After looking through them ... anybody able to tell me more about Shadeland? Still kinda new here and all but was really impressed (song, video, band name, the whole bit).
them thin fevers is cute. (robert) Indiana + rock = winner.
Very arty video of Graal!
How many times can you vote for a band? Say that I want to vote for Rok Hollywood. How many times can I vote for Rok Hollywood? Seriously though. How many?
If the Aberdeen project doesn't win, we all lose.
Are the vote totals going to be visible? Or will we not find out until voting is over?
I'd like to thank all the bands for joining in the throwdown. The videos are great! I have a couple of favorites, but good luck to you all. Vote as many times as you like, the winners will be revealed soon.
Go Rok Hollywood!!!!
Yes its the suspense of it all...the results won't be known until Monday afternoon.
My top three...red light driver, the last domino and living proof. Great job...nice work!
My vote goes for Eight Stories High!!! Finally a band with there own style. All the other bands on here are sticking with the same sound, and not trying anything new. Eight Stories High has the best music in this competition, No Doubt! I can't get Leave Me Alone out of my head!!! And I love it!!!
I totally agree with ljarney. Eight Stories High has a great sound. I want to see them win this competition. I love this Band and there song Leave Me Alone!!! GO EIGHT STORIES HIGH!!!
I'm voting for Graal. I love the lead guitar.
All I have to say is... Eight Stories High. I love the sound
Kudos to Eight Stories High for the walking start to their video, but no group captured the true essence of what spawned our music revolution (Viet Nam era protest songs) as did Aberdeen Project with their socially relevant "America". I agree totally with Benjamindy, this is sure to be a hit. Must see, must hear, must groove!
All we want for Christmas is your votes, and a show at The Vogue on December 7! P.S. Thanks Kelly! You are the coolest!
Rok Hollywood
$1500...I wish I had a band.
You can be in our band! =)
thank you, cubs baby lady!

Graal and The Last Domino are my favorites.
Graal has a very professional sound. I like their music and enjoyed seeing all the images of the group.
I like how The Last Domino meshed the music with the images.
Eight Stories High I Love you guys!!!
Yo I loved the Superbowl Sway but I am goin to have to say that my vote is goin to Eight Stories High. Theses guys are good and I love the keys!
Go GRAAL! and rock out. I love you guys!!!!!! Hey, that girl singer is cute, does anyone know her name?
Yay, music videos fighting! We should get robots with tv screen faces showing a video and have them in a steel cage match.

I love that I can tell which of the A's wrote a particular post.
I totally agree with itsaname -- GRAAL has a "professional" sound and a "professional" video!!! Once you see it, you can't help but vote for GRAAL!!!

As a musician and a film maker, My vote is going to Eight Stories High!! very very original... Next New Sound! I love it! The other bands are just the same old stuff...
I admire the Aberdeen Project for actually saying things as opposed to just being flashy and making love to the camera, but my vote has to go to BLT for the brilliant "Six O'Clock News". It's been recently added to the competition, so if you've happened to miss it, go back, watch...and most importantly, LISTEN.

Making love to the camera ain't so bad. I do it all the time. In fact, I'm doin it right now. Hey baby....you're beautiful. What's your name again?
I'm gonna vote for State just because I'm afraid if I don't, that woman will tie me up and kick me in the Jimmy.
whats up with the "new" videos being up so late in the game? seems a little fishy. indy.com, i await your response (please read that as "send an email out to everyone who entered and explain why new vids are being released after the contest has already begun.")
Red Light Driver is deh bomb diggity ;)
Indiegal I think some people just wanna make comments and maybe not want to deal with anything else. And yeah why are there more videos? The date was set, oh yea and the rules said that you needed an Indiana landmark, some of the videos don't have those.
Does anyone know how long the sets will be at The Vogue, and what time it will start? Not finding much information about it on here.
These videos could've been alot better but the best i saw was shadeland, pretty nice and got my vote.
I think I just wont vote.
"The Superbowl Sway" - makes me want to leave this state ASAP Dan Holmes Group - close ups = unnecessary Red Light Driver - at least it looks like they put some time in to their video. Eight Stories High - WTF? Aberdeen Project - Nice job trying to get political but NO Rock Hollywood - HIL-A-RIOUS! Combined IQ of RH = 27. Actually they are alright but the singer/lyrics is horrible.
There is a reason these bands don't have record deals. Sorry if I'm hurting feelings, sometimes you just need to hear the truth.
looks like things are heating up, I can't wait to things shake out at the Vogue. Shadeland, you got my vote. See you there!
No offence Roc Hollywood, I don't think you have to worry about how long sets will be.
Nevermind!! I didn't see the bottom three and I ended up voting for BLT. What's not to love? A video shot primarily in Raven's Woods? A Kanye beat?
Vote early and vote often!!! Bring BLT to the Vogue.
James B, how much to play at my wedding? Guys, be ez on Rok. Last Domino is hilarious-we've all been there. Shadeland video-well Done!
Voting ends at high noon today! The top three will be announced shortly thereafter.
GRAAL and Red Light Driver were super. I like the female bass player in GRAAL.
Nice line up. It was hard to pick a favorite. There were several that I thought were worthy of the honor. I'll enjoy seeing those three play live. I saw Red Light Driver do a cover of the Clash at Tonic Ball and they were fantastic.
