Total bands that will be going to compete in this year event is 28 bands, which then will be separated to two, 14 bands will be performs on 10th March while other 14 on 11th March.

The prelim sessions begins at 8pm, handle by Yusmir and Helida Akashah as our MC for the night. Overall, they did a very good job while handling the event, examples like having some jokes with the crowds; ask some questions with the bands and also with the crowds. The first 14 bands that perform for the night are:
1) El Loco – Corazon Espinado by Santana
2) Reset Mecha & the Ultra Phantom – Reptilia by The Strokes
3) Baditoss – Anna Molly by Incubus
4) Joe’s Band – Aku Skandal by Hujan

14) Through Ashes – Don’t Drag Me Down by Social Distortion

The event atmosphere at that night was so out of expectation because we can see the crowd that comes to the MPH UNITEN is about 600++. That is the highest number of crowds so far for the event like this. For the bands, their performance was so full of energy; as being said they want to get to the Top 10 in the final day. Even though there are some technical problems here and there but we, the crew have manage the problems by not dragging the lagging time too long. Overall, the event on the first night of prelim sessions is success with some small technical problems and the band also was so happy and enjoy while the crowds enjoy the performance comfortably.

My personal comment as one of the committee member for this year event are; the event was well organized, all the committee and the crew already did their work successfully and everybody that comes to the MPH was enjoy with the performance.
