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.
