Last Band Standing -- the local battle of the bands competition -- is back for another year. This year, the shows have moved over to the Century Center for Friday night shows between May 6 and July 8.

Last year, Mosley Wotta walked away with the top prize, which was valued at more than $30,000.

This year, another 32 bands (more than 50 applied...far less than last year, which brought out more than 100 submissions) are heading into the competition, and while there are definitely some returning bands, including last year's runner up, KleverKill. But there are several acts on the list that I've never heard of, which should be interesting.

All but one of the bands (Shannon Tower Band of out Portland) are from Central Oregon. Here's the complete list. Stay I'll keep you posted when I know which band is playing when.
