Hey Austin Swim & Cartoon Lovers everywhere! We need your help:
Help **The Platforms** Burn Rubber Into Little Steven's Underground Garage!!
**The Platforms** were recently featured on the Goldie's Garage show in Little Steven's Underground Garage, on Sirius Satellite Radio Channel 25. The show is for new, unsigned garage rock artists. Miss Goldie herself, Genya Ravan, found The Platforms right here on MySpace. This was the fifth monthly show where 12 bands battle it out for votes to be considered the best new garage act on the planet.
We know these requests can be a drag BUT WE NEED **YOUR** HELP. Now, we're the only Texas band (so far) to be granted a VIP Parking Pass in Goldie's Garage!!
PLEASE GO VOTE FOR THE PLATFORMS!! Winners from each monthly contest move on toward great prizes, including a record deal on Little Steven's Wicked Cool Records!
