Smokefreerockquest Conditions of Entry

Eligibility

You can change schools during the competition. (School means secondary, area, intermediate, primary or correspondence school.)
2. All contestants must be no older than 19 (nineteen) years of age on 1st May 2010. (You may be asked to supply proof of eligibility.)
3. Smokefreerockquest is for unsigned bands and individuals only. No contestant/s can sign a recording contract prior to or during the competition without the prior written
approval of Rockquest Promotions Ltd.
4. A student can only enter in one Smokefreerockquest band.
Conduct
5. By entering this competition, all entrants are making a declaration of their smokefree status and will be required to sign the following declaration at the heats.

Smokefree Declaration

Smokefree supports Smokefreerockquest and Smokefree Pacifica Beats to give emerging musicians the opportunity to play their sounds to crowds throughout the country. Because you are the essence of these events, we ask that you respect their smokefree status. “As an entrant, I understand that for interviews, heats, Regional Finals and National Finals, press conferences, and T.V. or radio appearances, it is a requirement for me to be smokefree. If I, or any of my group members, fail to comply with this declaration, it will result in the groups’ immediate exclusion from all parts of this event.”

6. The use or possession of alcohol, cigarettes or illegal drugs by any group member at any Smokefreerockquest 2010 event will result in the instant disqualification of their entire group.
7. At Smokefreerockquest you are representing your school. It is important that you adhere to your school’s policies regarding behaviour in public. If in doubt seek the guidance of your teachers.
8. Any entrant defacing or destroying Smokefreerockquest property or property/venues used by Smokefreerockquest will be disqualified and held accountable for damages. This includes P.A. equipment, recording studios, heats and final venues, accommodation venues as well as any place used for photo shoots or interviews e.g. radio stations.
9. Smokefreerockquest does not condone censorship. Smokefreerockquest does support the NZ music industry and therefore urges entrants to consider the commercial potential of the material they write. While not wanting to put constraints on the creative process of songwriters we would like to point out that sexually explicit lyrics or lyrics that may offend may not have commercial potential and therefore may not suit this competition. Judges for this event are drawn from the NZ music industry. Entrants are urged to consider this point carefully.

Performance Requirements

10. Band members cannot be changed or added after your heats performance.
11. All parts, vocal and instrumental, must be performed live.
12. All performed songs must be original.
13. Performances at the Regional Finals must not exceed 7 (seven) minutes in duration. At the heats, play one song only.

Judging Process

14. Heats and Finals Judging decisions will be based on points, discussion, industry experience and knowledge.
15. The Judges’ decision will be final and no correspondence or discussion will be entered into.
