- This article is about the annual competition held by whoever happens to be broadcasting on 89FM at the time. Perhaps you're looking for The Band Experiments, the Waikato Rock Awards, the Live Media Battle of the Bands or possibly even the World Battle of the Bands.
First held in 1993, this event grew to be probably the biggest event on the Hamilton music calendar in the late 1990s. The 1998 final, held at the Wailing Bongo, attracted around 1000 people.
The 2001 competition began as the UFM Battle of the Bands, and ended as the Generator 89.0 Battle of the Bands due to the relaunch held at the end of August.
