We’ve teamed up with needtickets to offer one lucky winner the chance to win two gig tickets to a gig of their choice…
I did intend to do a full top ten, but seeing as I ran out of time I’m gonna list (in no particular order) my top albums of 2008…
We’ve looked at the best albums and videos of 2008, but what about the live gigs we attended? We give you our top ten of the best live events we’ve been to.
Like your music heavy and theatrical? Then fear not as Slipknot have announced a string of UK Tour dates for December.
Tickets go on sale at 9am next Wednesday, 27th August.
Monday 1st and Tuesday 2nd December - London Hammersmith Apollo
Friday 5th December - Cardiff International Arena
Sunday 7th December - Birmingham NIA
Monday 8th December - Glasgow SECC
Tuesday 9th December - Manchester MEN Arena
Thursday 11th December - Newcastle Metro Arena
Friday 12th December - Sheffield Arena
