Listed below are the total points earned as of March 29, 2022. Points tally determines which artists will be invited to perform at our next marquee event. Points earned from September 1, 2019 – April 30, 2022 will be applied to participation in the Steel City Grand Slam on June 7 at City of Asylum’s Alphabet City Center. The winner of that slam will be the 2019-2022 Steel City Slam Champion.
