Last B.O.B. Judging Criteria update: 4/13/06

Bands will be judged by a panel of 3 judges on the seven categories listed below.

* Musicianship - How well do you play your instruments, sing?
* Visual Presentation - Stage Presence, clothes, costuming, actions on stage, props, etc.
* Originality - What makes your band different, unique?
* Audience Response - How well does the audience like you?
* Song Writing - How well are your songs written musically and lyrically?
* Professionalism - Set up and break down time, acknowledgements, introductions, etc.
* Overall Entertainment Value - How entertaining was your band?  Did you hold the interest of the audience?

There are no "Rounds" or "Finals."  Each band gets to play only one 30 minute set in the B.O.B. Festival.  Therefore, it is in the best interest of all bands to play to the best of their ability.  Bands must play all originals.  Sorry, no cover tunes.  Your band will be scored with points on a scale of 1 to 10 with ten being the highest in each of the categories by a panel of 3 judges.  For example, if a band scores all 10's in every category, by all three judges, the maximum score a band could receive is 210 points.  Points will be posted online, a few days after the show you play in, on the B.O.B. Scores page.  As the Festival continues and more bands compete, your points won't change, but your placing could change, therefore, bands should frequently check the B.O.B. Scores page.  The bands with the top three scores at the end of the Festival win, and will be contacted about their prizes at that time.  All scores posted by WorldFolk are final.
