My band Eve's Fall are trying to enter the "Grote Prijs van Nederland", the single most important and significant band contest which is held annually here in the Netherlands. Not only are the prizes well worth the effort, but during the course of the competition bands also receive workshops, masterclasses and a lot of guidance in refining their performance, their songwriting skills and their understanding of the music business as a whole and how to survive out there.

Prizes include 3000 euros to invest in the band, a number of cool gigs at some major clubs and festivals throughout the Netherlands in 2015, studio time, a professional photoshoot and a full year of professional coaching during the first year after winning the competition. We would love to take part in this!

We've already submitted our application to take part in the competition, and now it's up to the jury to select 24 bands and 24 singer-songwriters. We can just lean back and wait for the jury to take their pick, but we can also guide the hands of fate a little by gathering votes to improve our chances. Submissions are open until this Sunday, the 13th. After that, the jury will give out a wildcard to two acts from the top 10. We're at number 16 right now, so we still need some more!

You guys would help me out a lot of you'd head over to http://www.groteprijsvan.nl/deelnemer/eves-fall/ and hit "Breng je stem uit", on the right next to our photo. The voting is connected to Facebook to verify you only vote once. You'll be asked to like the page of the Grote Prijs van Nederland, which of course can be undone at any time :)

Thanks a lot in advance! :)

Jeroen, after clicking on the "Breng je stem uit" link, a small window pops up, but there is no link on it to like the FB page. I went to the page and liked it, but it's not recognized thru the "Breng" link.. suggestions?

Oh, that's odd! The popup should show the like-button, and afterwards the vote-button should appear :|

Although the pop-is in your language, I scrolled my cursor over every part of it, and no live-link came up for me to click on... bummer! :)

With a bit of help from Google translate, I was able to vote, and all worked fine for me using Chrome! Good luck!
