NEW YORK, New York — The legendary Fillmore New York Irving Plaza hosted the 13 acts who've came a long way from the first rounds of the competition just a few months ago. Out of 2,000 bands these guys were the best in the East and the show didn't disappoint.

Over 400 fans of all ages and musical inclinations came out to support their bands. Buses were lined-up outside filled with cheering college kids and proud parents, as some of them drove as far as 5 hours to get to venue.

Although the competition was tough and some of the crowd favorites leaned towards the more hip-hop influenced sounds of The Alchemystics and Audio Imagery, All Grown-Up impressed the judges with their awesome live performance and catchy melodies. The twenty-something 5-piece brought great energy to the stage and moved the crowd to their feet. Sean the guitar player was fun to watch as he danced around towering 6-feet over everyone else. Kevin was on bass adding seriously trained vox (vox = voice) as well. (They called it vox, which was funny.) He is also adding a new addition to his family soon, as his girlfriend is expecting their first son.

Chris on second guitar, Rob on the drums and Timmy on the synth all kicked it hard together and really meshed well on stage. The guys could hardly believe their names were called and ready to go to win it all.

They move onto the finals in Los Angeles for a chance to win a million dollar recording contact with Bodog Music. Get all your latest updates on the Bodog Battle website.
