· Over a duration of four weeks, bands across Mumbai and Pune can book two-hour slots each (on first come first serve basis) and just go and jam

· Since jamrooms have only been booked in two cities, outstation bands can share basic information - name of band, city you are based in, genre and links to their performances to participate

· The progression of bands in the competition will be at the sole discretion of the judges

· To participate, bands can log on to the website
