Battle of the Bands is an annual company event where team members (plus a friend or spouse) get together to celebrate the incredible musical talent that exists within our walls. The event started in 2009 in the Financial Peace Conference Center (FPCC), but the only thing we had to use at the time was the staff meeting sound system. No ambiance. No event experience. When you attend now, though, it looks a bit different—with a huge stage, powerful sound system and awesome lighting. But one thing has remained true since the start—the bands play their hearts out and bring the company together. There’s just something amazing about a large group of people listening to a band together. Bruce Springsteen says it best: “People don’t come to rock shows to learn something. They come to rock shows to be reminded of something they already know and feel deep in their gut.”
