It's already "Final Exam" time for a few students at area schools.
Thr33's Company, a group comprised of three Shaker Heights High School students, is among those performing Saturday at the 2013 Tri-C High School Rock Off Final Exam. The 17th edition of the annual event begins at 4 p.m. downtown at House of Blues.
The Rock Off schedule shows that Thr33's Company will perform at 5:20 p.m., just before the first break. The winners will be announced at 10:55 p.m. following all performances.
Thr33's Company is one of 18 bands to make the Final Exam competition. The Rock Off began about a month ago with 63 bands of various genres. The band consists of Alex "A-Lex Ram" Ramsay, Brian "Watered Kirby" Kirby and Chris "CG" Gillooly.

Whoo hoo! This will be a great show and congratulations to all the hard-working High School students participating. Three's Company is awesome (not that I am biased or anything). :)

Thanks for the comments and for reading. Sadly, not including Techn!color was an oversight. They will also be performing tonight. You can listen to some of their music here - http://technicolorfromshaker.bandcamp.com/
Also, a version of this article on Lack of Focus can be found on Cleveland Heights Patch - http://clevelandheights.patch.com/articles/cleveland-heights-shaker-students-among-finalists-in-high-school-rock-off
Best of luck to all!
