It's time to find out who's the best in the underground dance scene and put the rivalries to rest. The Commonspace is proud to co-sponsor Settle the Score 2004, a non-violent battle royale presented by Digitronical.
There will be 3-on-3 b-boy (breakdancing) battles ($750 cash prize), 1-on-1 funkstyle (popping) battles ($250 cash prize) and 1-on-1 grudge matches (merchandise prizes). "Fly" D-EX from "The Science" show on KDHX 88.1 FM will host the event, and DJs Trackstar (the man behind the One Dollar Mix), Espi (original breaks and deep funk 45s) and Mark Lewis (soul funk and old-school dusties) will be manning the turntables.
Dancers must register to compete. Registration starts at noon and ends at 2 p.m. (no exceptions). Competitors can also pre-register online at www.digitronical.com/register .
