This week I wrote a post on the City Paper's Noise blog about three Baltimore acts that were nominated to compete in a battle of the bands to get to play the 2012 Afro-Punk Festival: Femi The DriFish & The Out Of Water eXperience, Me & This Army and Reina Williams. Voting just closed today and Femi The DriFish was voted into the top 16 to compete in the battle. Congrats to him!
