Danny Thompson, 15, tunes his guitar before taking the stage with Mourning Waits during the Battle of the Bands at Chamberlain High School. About 250 people came out to watch four bands compete for top honors. Both the audience and the judges loved the hard hitting guitar licks and testosterone-fueled sounds of screamo band Mourning Waits, who walked away with a first place trophy, custom guitar cables and a band logo to be designed by Chamberlain High School's graphic design class.
The Velvetones bassist Harry Ong, 14, right, runs through his band's set list in his head while waiting backstage before playing in the Battle of the Bands at Chamberlain High School. Their self-described indie reggae sound won over the crowd, but not the judges, who gave the win to Mourning Waits.
