Hip-hop duo Zion I were selected to compete in the 2004 ﾓDEW MUSIC CIRCUITﾔ face off in a weeklong MTV2 tournament and they need your vote!!! Starting Monday, November 22, at 9pm ET/6pm PT, MTV2 VJ Jim Shearer kicks off the competition and introduces the audience to The Kite-Eating Tree, Fifth Year Crush, Zion-I, and Limitpoint. Featuring in-depth profiles, interviews and performances, viewers will then have 24-hours to visit http://www.mtv2.com/, where they can vote for their favorite.
MTV2 will host the semi-finalists from the ﾓDew Music Circuit,ﾔ as they compete head-to-head in a week-long battle of the bands tournament on MTV2. Determined entirely by music fans voting on MTV2.com, MTV2 will narrow the field to three band finalists who will perform live on-air at MTV2ﾒs Time Square Studios on Saturday, December 4th.
The winner of the competition will get $50,000, their own ﾓBands A to Zﾔ page on MTV.com, and will appear on ﾓMTV2 Rockﾔ for the week of December 6th at 8pm ET/5pm PT.
This is Zion Iﾒs second time selected by MTV2 for the competition: Each of the twelve semi-finalist bands competing survived Mountain Dew and FreedomZoneﾒs ﾓDew Music Circuit,ﾔ where they were judged and selected from a pool of over 100 other bands by college radio station directors nationwide. Now, facing the chance to join famous ﾓDew Music Circuitﾔ alumni Yellowcard and Taking Back Sunday, each band will up the stakes and compete on ﾓMTV2ﾒs Dew Circuit Breakout.ﾔ
