Event Organiser Robert Eggleston: "I must confess that I was totally knackered after Battle of the Bands but it was totally worth it.
We had seven great young bands, a full house and a really great atmosphere.
Reviving Battle of the Bands was a spur of the moment thing but there is an obvious need in Burgess Hill to provide this sort of event for young teens and families.
I'm already looking at how the concept can be developed and what we can do for Battle of the Bands in 2014."
