๐๐ท๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐/๐บ๐๐๐๐: ๐ด๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐.
* This includes getting on stage, plugging in instruments, tuning, and a quick line-check.
๐๐ท๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐: ๐ด๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐.
* The timer starts the moment the first note is played or the band addresses the microphone.

We want every band to perform at their best, so we are flexible with the drum arrangements:

:
๐๐๐๐๐ฃ๐๐๐๐ ๐ท๐๐ข๐๐ : A complete house drum kit (including shells, hardware, cymbals, and snare) is fully provided and ready on stage for any band that does not have or cannot bring their own.
๐๐ต๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ข๐ ๐๐ค๐ ๐ท๐๐ข๐๐ : Bands are allowed to bring and use their own drum kits if they prefer their own sound.
๐๐ถ๐๐ข๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ก๐ข๐ ๐๐๐ก๐: If a band chooses to bring their own drums, they must still fit their entire setup within the strict 5-minute preparation window. To achieve this, their drum kit must be completely assembled backstage beforehand so it can be quickly rolled or carried onto the stage when their slot begins.
๐๐๐กโ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ฃ๐๐๐๐ ๐บ๐๐๐: The main sound system (PA), vocal microphones, and standard guitar/bass amplifiers.
๐What Bands Must Bring: Guitars, basses, keyboards, instrument cables, and effects pedals.

* Late Arrival: If a band is not backstage and ready to gear up when their slot is called, they risk immediate disqualification.
* Equipment Care: Whether using your own gear or the provided house drums/amps, treat all equipment on stage with respect. Intentional damage will result in immediate disqualification.
* Live Performance Only: No backing tracks or pre-recorded sequences are allowed. Everything heard must be played live on stage.
