I thought I would be nice share this to the bandamp community. Since it says USA, I hope there's a few ppl here that lives in the US (I noticed that everybody's from different country).

Anyway, so the grand prize is a $50,000. And the deadline in May 29, 2009.
It's cool, entries could be in different genres. It's A LOT!
This is what they would allow:  pop, rock/alternative, Country, R&B, Gospel/Inspirational, Folk, Latin, Intrumental, Jazz, Hop-Hop/Rap, Children, World, Dance/Electronica, Novelty/Comedy,  and Lyrics Only.

And I like how the production and performace would not be considered through the picking proccess.
And there is a first prize in each of the categories...

I'm working on a song write now that I might think of sending in.
