The 26th annual Whale Bowl of Rock-n-Roll begins Wednesday morning with The Whale Morning Show, featuring 32 Classic Rock bands and artists paired up in hourly battles, where you vote for the act you want to see advance to the next round.

During each hourly battle, a lucky voter will score a Whale Bowl Prize Pack - a 10 slice pizza from Brozzetti's Pizza, a large sub from Jim Roma's Bakery and a dozen wings from The Brackney Inn!

I will give you updates each day on Facebook at '99.1thewhale' and an end of day recap at this website - 991thewhale.com!
