Song Of The Week: The Used - Hands And Faces

It's Friday, my favourite day for drowning out the world with headphones on. The Used recently released their new album, Vulnerable, and although I'm still unsure about most of their new offerings (they've definitely taken the mainstream route with their last two albums) I happened upon this rad track and thought I'd share it.

What do you think?

The Dirty Skirts Album Launch Ticket Give Away

It's been a good week for competitions. I gave away a ticket to The Used at Grand West yesterday, and today I'm giving away a set of double tickets to The Dirty Skirts album launch in Cape Town, Pretoria and Johannesburg. That's six tickets in total. All the details for the shows are on the FB events (linked to the locations above).

So what do you have to do? It's pretty simple really: click the FB-share button at the bottom of this post. In the box that pops up, tag The Dirty Skirts (@-tag them!) along with a good reason why you, of all people, deserve the tickets. Also, include the launch you'd like to win tickets to. So, basically:

• Share on FB
• Tag The Dirty Skirts
• Include a reason and either CT, JHB or PTA
• Hold appendages

Winners will be chosen at random, so enter as many times as you like. Better get sharing. Competition ends tomorrow at 17:00. Later.

Who Wants A Free Ticket To The Used In Cape Town?

I held a small, Twitter-based competition this morning. This is how it went:

We have a winner! And it's none other than Kaydee Van Eyssen. A well-deserved victory! Thanks all who participated. We managed to get #usedcomp trending at Number 1 in Cape Town - above the likes of #Murdoch, #Mandela, #Malema and the Google Engage Conference.

Any feedback can be left in the section below. Later.
