Win Tickets To The Arrows Live In Cape Town

Durban-based pop duo, The Arrows, will be performing at Zula on Saturday night, and I've been charged with the pleasurable task of giving away a double set of tickets to said event.

All you have to do is comment on this blog post with the name and URL of your favourite local blog. There's no obligation for it to be my blog - honest. Come on, it's a pretty easy way of saving R65 on tickets. So it's:

• name
• email address
• favourite local blog/website (name and URL)

Good luck! For more info on the gig, check out the Facebook event. Later.

Strike/Vandalism/Riot In Cape Town

BREAKING NEWS: this is happening right now (13:55, 16 August 2011) in Cape Town CBD. For more information check out CapeTimes or News24.
