# Yeah,
I do have to admit, I loved Parachutes when it came out, and I quite enjoyed parts of X and Y. But my biggest problem is that twat who sings for them. I think as well, it is a subtle bit of retribution for winning free VIP tickets to see Velvet Revolver a few years back, and free tickets to V last year and many more free tickets :)

# Well I can tell you how with some of them:
Velvet Revolver - Carling Live (They used to give away loads of free tickets through comps on their website, I dont know if they still do)
The Brakes and The Pipettes - Carling Live
V Festival - Drunk vs Stoned on Virgin Radio
Brian Wilson - A friend worked for the Royal Festival Hall and got me 2 free tickets to see the World Premiere of That Lucky Old Sun (A Narrative)
Elbow @ Somerset House - A Grolsch comp I think
and others I'm sure :)

The best one was V Festival though, not just because of the bands I saw, Newton Faulkner, Jet, Ocean Colour Scene, Boy Kill Boy, but because when I was coming out of the loos, some woman stopped me and asked if I wanted to buy a raffle ticket, which I did for £1, and I won a Gibson SG :D
