For the first Rock Lotto, to the best of my recollection, we had two to
three weeks to come up with three songs.

I don't remember what the rules were, but generally the bands consisted of
four members. In our case, someone had put a name into the hat of a person
who didn't want to play, so we were a trio.

We met at least three times to come up with stuff/practice. I still have
tapes of our "rehearsals" somewhere.

The first Rock Lotto was videotaped by people from "Zoom Culture" if I
recall correctly, however I never saw the tape. Anyone out there have a
copy?

I also remember we had the luxury of going on first!
