Prize Frenzy™!


If you were not lucky enough to win an oversized stuffed animal at the Royal Adelaide Show last week, then here's a few prizes to tempt. And it's not almost impossible to take home something either - all you have to do is call 8231 0881 at 1pm on Friday 21 September and tell us what yer fancy.

1. Gigantour, the brainchild of Megadeth frontman and guitarist Dave Mustaine, is coming to Adelaide for the first time this year, so you won't want to be anywhere else but Thebarton Theatre on Mon 12 Nov.

2. Also on the Gigantour line-up is Lacuna Coil - Mark Grimshaw chats to the beautiful and talented vocalist Cristina Scabbia this issue. For all those fans out there, we have two amazing prize packs consisting of Lacuna Coil's entire back catalogue (4 CDs), with a big thank you to Century Media.
