trickortreatexAfter last year’s more complex and intense community challenge, this one is going to be simpler for our new Pumpkin King. Battle of the Bands is a community challenge to make 200 works influenced by music.
Nominate your favorite songs to be part of the challenge.
When you sign up there are two ways to indicate your interest in participating in this challenge. The first is to request a song as a fandom or request non-song fandoms and then in optional details list what songs from the Battle of the Bands list you’d like to be used for inspiration (you can just opt in to any if you so choose). The second is for non-song fandoms say in your request that you are opting into Battle of the Bands and what songs from the list you are interested in.
Song nominations will close one hour after the normal tagset nominations.
The Battle of the Bands tagset will not be used in matching and will just be used as an easy way for us to compile a list of songs that participants are interested in for Battle of the Bands. You must nominate specific songs and not “Any Beatles Song”. You may nominate specific covers of a song.
Works for this should be tagged “ToT: Battle of the Bands”
EDIT: I will do a mass accepting of songs each day at 23:59 UTC followed by resetting nominations. Everything in the tagset will still be there, you'll just get to reuse your slots. This will begin tomorrow (September 3).
EDIT2: BotB nominations are closed.

2. For non-English titles go with what makes the most sense if someone not familiar with the song were to look it up. As long as we have at least one version of the title written in the Latin alphabet we will accept it.
