Ha, this looks like a trip. Can someone explain to me what actually happens in a laptop battle? Is it like a soundclash, but instead of drawing for the dub, you draw for the mouse click?

kind of like the americanidol format. there are rounds, and each round between two opponents get's judged and decided.

format for this battle will be:
1st round: 10 competitors - 5 minutes each.
top 5 vote getters move on to 2nd round.
2nd round: 5 competitors - 10 minutes each.
top 3 vote getters move on to 3rd round.
3rd round: 3 competitors - 10 minutes each.
1 winner.
(we do not use the head2head format that some places use.... which often times eliminates a great competitor in the 1st round just due to luck of the draw.)
****if you are driving.... remember, advance tickets are available now from the knitting factory website.***

Last I heard, Secret Agent Gel was bringing a blinged-out cattle prod, meant both for the competitors that try to step, and the legions of fanboys that want to watch his tracker madness. be forewarned-- and give him a wide berth, cuz SON DOES NOT PLAY.
