On Saturday, four bands will battle it out for the chance to be the "Last Band Standing" at Lincoln Theatre. 

The show is a fundraiser for Band Together NC. 

Each band will receive $500 and the winning band gets an additional $1,000, plus a spot as an opening act at Band Together's annual spring concert. Last year, the B-52s headlined the show. No word on who will be headlining this year. 

The audience will be able to help vote on the winning band Saturday night. 

Here's a list of the bands: 

Big Fat Gap - back porch bluegrass 

Mac and Juice - Their sound "celebrates rock and jazz with doses of jam and bluegrass elements spun in." 

The Beast - Indie hip hop and progressive jazz 

The Deluge - Southern Americana and Soul 

Tickets are still available online.

There are only 100 VIP tickets available in advance. (No VIP tickets will be sold the night of.) For $65, you get dinner provided by Bella Monica and beer and wine provided by R.A. Jeffreys. There are only 100 VIP tickets available 

General admission tickets are $10 in advance.  

All net proceeds from this event go to the Tammy Lynn Center which helps provide educational, residential, therapeutic and family support services to children and adults with developmental disabilities.
