Cage The Elephant Competition
We're running an exclusive competition to win a special gig from Cage The Elephant at one of over 100 Student Union venues nationwide.
We're asking students to nominate their Student Union as the best venue to host a unique 'end of tour' gig, which will take place in February 2009, on the band's next UK tour.
The competition mechanic is very simple - the Student Union venue with the highest number of unique nominations by 31st December 2008 will win a free gig. On top of that, everyone nominating the winning venue will be entered into a draw to win a Cage The Elephant Access All Areas package - this will include hanging out with the band, a big bag of exclusive Cage The Elephant merchandise, and lots of other goodies.
All you have to do to enter is to go to www.cagetheelephantgig.com
To keep things interesting, this site will be regularly updated with a league table of the Top Ten leading venue nominations - this gives you time throughout the competition to get your friends to help you ensure YOUR Student Union gets the gig!
