On Monday, we ran a Leeds day, glancing back at 10 years in that Northern city that never seems to stop grinning. The reason for this special day, wasn't just that the city has long been high on the DiS awesome-o-metre but that this weekend there's a festival going on in Leeds called Constellations.
Wut? As they put it themselves "Constellations is a brand new music and arts festival taking place against the backdrop of one of the UK’s most creative cities. Constellations will take place on Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th November 2010." The music bits features oodles of great bands from Broken Social Scene, Los Campesinos!, Liars and Les Savy Fav to Four Tet, Gold Panda and Abe Vigoda. As media partner of the festival, DiS is very excited to offer you the chance to win a pair of tickets and a whole heap of goodies from the good peoples of Leeds (and Wichita Records, who seem to release lots of related stuffz!).
