Oh say, can you sing?

Want to sing the national anthem in front of 1500-3000 people?  Love the roller derby?  The Blue Ridge Rollergirls will host tryouts on Saturday, March 10th for musicians who want to sing the national anthem at a home bout during the 2012 season.  Email wanda_lust@yahoo.com if you're interested!

Tryouts will be at the One Stop Deli (downtown) at 1pm.  You will be asked to sing the National Anthem and may sing another song if you wish.  Instruments are allowed.

Congratulations to Lyric!

A huge thanks to the bands that came out to play last night at our second annual Battle of the Bands!  Lyric, Ogre Throne, Marisa Albert-Blake, The Ville Boyz, Grammer School, Build Me A Boat and Free Lunch all came out and did an amazing job!  Another huge thanks to the Grey Eagle for hosting the event.  A great evening was had by all - thanks to all who came out to support us!  More information on when Lyric will be playing at a home bout will be posted as soon as it's scheduled.

Calling all fans!

The Women's Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA) has opened their annual survey!

This survey is designed to help the WFTDA and its individual member leagues understand the modern roller derby audience (that's YOU!).  The survey collects demographic data, basic consumer habits, and opinions about the state of the sport.  It should only take a few minutes to complete.

Participating in this survey will supply valuable information to your favorite local league (that's US!), as well as to the modern roller derby community as a whole.  Enter your email address for a chance to win a WFTDA prize pack.

Click HERE to complete the demographic survey (on the left)!  Don't wait - it's only open until 15 February.
