WIN! Tickets to the End Of The Road Festival

by Mike Diver [Edit this content] ▾ 144 comments 13:40 August 14th, 2008

The End Of The Road Festival acts as something of a marker each year, indicating that the festival season in the UK is as good as up, and you've one weekend left to party in a field. And now you can do that partying for nowt.

Well, 'nowt' - DiS isn't paying your way to the Dorset festival, held on September 12-14 in Larmer Tree Gardens, but we do have a pair of tickets to give away. Among the acts playing: Conor Oberst, Mercury Rev, Calexico (pictured), Dirty Three, Low, Tindersticks, British Sea Power, Richard Hawley and Bon Iver - get the full bill at the festival's official website.

Limited tickets to the three-dayer do remain, but it is this close to being sold out, so if you're yet to get yourself some, click here right away. _Or_, try your luck... to have the chance to win a pair of tickets to the festival, simply answer this question:

Mercury Rev feature a member who goes under the name of...?

A) Grasshopper

B) Stag Beetle

C) Snow Leopard

Post your answer in the comments section below. Entrants must be aged over 18 to win tickets, and be able to make their own way to the festival (and provide their own tent). A winner will be picked at random on August 22 (Friday) and contacted via a DiS note. Good luck!

For all the information you could ever need, visit the official festival website here.
