If it was a true battle of the bands then surely you the judges, should be putting people through on there abilitly, style etc. Theres no point in haveing a crowd vote as it turns into who has the most mates rather than who was actually the best, even with a crowd vote people turn up late as there mates band is on last, so they never get to see or here the rest of the bands ?? i think they way you choose ure bands should be revised.
