It is hard to believe it has been one year since my first Battle of the Bands battle.

Some bumps in the road but it has become one of my favorite blog hops. A lot of it becoming one of my favorites is the other participants. Everyone sharing music it is pretty neat. Especially when the music might be in a genre or era you don't necessarily listen to a lot. Sometimes it is hearing a song you know done differently. Sometimes people share music that is right up your musical alley that you have never heard before. Another thing I have discovered is the participants have some interesting blogs. Several times I have gone to check out a battle on a participant's blog and ended up sidetrack checking out their other blog posts.
The Battle of the Bands has grown since I started and I am sure that os true when it started two years ago.
Hopefully this is the updated list of participants. I snagged it from STMcC Presents 'Battle of the Bands':

Today's battle is based on a song by The Band called "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down." It fits well with some current events.
Here is their version..
I was impressed with the number of covers I found for this song. Selecting two was the hard part.
I will start off with:
Contestant One: The Charlie Daniels Band
I was originally planning on using the Zac Brown Band's version but I think this is a pretty fair battle. Two legends same era. Remember the only battle here is between Charlie Daniels and Johnny Cash vote and comment accordingly.
It has been a fun year and I look forward to continuing into the future with the Battle of the Bands.
