yup, you read that right.
one of the seasons best festivals (never been myself, but each year the line up looks superb, and the location is just gorgeous), have set up a challenge.
basically, put you/your band forward to open the festival, and you too could be on the same stage as such names as super furry animals, spiritualised, or even checking out the latest freaky grooves that are impressing david holmes.
anyway, here’s the small print :
this is how it works:
– bands register for green poll on our site : here
– the public vote for the bands they like and get a chance to win a pair of tickets
– band with most votes plays green man attended by 10,000 people and they also get 6 extra tickets
anybody can enter green poll signed or unsigned. there’s tickets to be won, and new bands to discover.
