The Frenzy™ is about to be in session, there's not even a six week campaign leading up to the actual good times, and this very Friday at 1pm you can cast your vote, simply by wagging your finger in the appropriate manner at a telephone of your convenience. To win, therefore, you must call 8231 0881 at 1pm on Friday 19 October and tell us what you'd like, selecting from the cracking good list below.

Please note: If you won a prize last issue, you are ineligible for Prize Frenzy this issue. Try again next time!

1. In his review of the new Chemical Brothers album 'We Are The Night' written by Julian Cram as a final going away present to dB Magazine, he describes the album as a bit like eating at your favourite restaurant. Every night!! With that in mind, you can win a copy of 'We Are The Night' thanks to Virgin Records.

2. Matt Vesely has a close look at the new Foo Fighters album 'Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace' and thanks to Sony BMG we have five copies of this great release to give way. Can't say more than that, really.

3. We have ten double passes - in-season passes to the new movie 'Control' which details the life of Joy Division singer Ian Curtis, who hanged himself many years ago, thus ensuring he'd be a celebrity, and that New Order would emerge from the ashes and dominate the world for millions of years until a freak astral event ensured their extinction at the close of the Cretaceous Period. No wait, that was the dinosaurs. Thanks to Communikate, tickets to 'Control' can be yours, so read the review in the film pages by Luke Ramsden.

4. With the Boomtown Showdown coming up awfully soon, and there's more than one great article inside the magazine spelling it out, we've stashed away two double passes to the gig, which will come to you with matching Elora Danan and In Fiction CDs, with thanks to our friends at Boomtown Records.

5. Horsell Common's new album 'The Rescue' is about as good as it gets, according to Will Oakeshott, and he oughtta know, he reviewed it for dB Magazine. Score a copy for yourself, thanks once again to Boomtown Records.

6. Thanks to Elefant Traks there's also prizes for The Tongue - a copy of his CD 'Shock & Awe' and a double pass to 'The Three Strikes Tour' featuring Urthboy, The Tongue and Hermitude at the Electric Light Hotel on Thurs 25 Oct.

7. Reverend & The Makers new CD is 'The State Of Things' and thanks to Libeeraytion we have 3 copies to give away.

8. Josh Pyke gets the Suzi Gunn treatment in an interview in this magazine, so in honour of that fact, and that he plays at Her Majesty's Theatre on Fri 2 Nov with 78 Saab and Whitley, there's three double passes to be won. Yeehay!

9. The 'Taste Of Chaos' tour hits the Ent Centre on Sun 21 Oct (The Used, Rise Against, Aiden, Drop Dead, Gorgeous, The Bled, Gallows, Carpathian), and thanks to Frontier Touring we have three double passes to this enormous event.

10. The Scare can be a prickly lot, according to Alistair Wallis, but thanks to EMI we have five copies of their CD 'Chivalry' and thanks to Select Music there's an equal number of double passes to see The Scare play Enigma on Sat 3 Nov with Regular John.

11. There's a copy of The Stereophonics latest 'Pull The Pin' to be won, thanks to Shock Records.

12. The Black Crusade (Machine Head, Trivium and Arch Enemy) hits Adelaide Tue 30 Oct at Thebby. You wanna be there? You can, thanks to KMW Productions who bounced the Frenzy™ three doubles for the gig.

13. Lucky number thirteen: the ASO and Adelaide Symphony Chorus perform Mahler's 'Resurrection' at Adelaide Festival Theatre, and you can be at their performance on Fri 19 Oct. Read the Brett Allen-Bayes article in this issue, and say thanks to the ASO for the tickets.
