Ladyhawke To Play ‘One Ticket’ Charity Gig
The competition requires fans to create a guestlist using social networking sites.
Ladyhawke is going to play a special 'one ticket' gig for Skindividual, a new initiative from SunSmart (Cancer Research UK’s skin cancer awareness campaign).
The campaign has been launched in response to a survey suggesting that "young people are engaging in ‘competitive tanning’ with their mates – a worrying situation given the link between too much UV and skin cancer."
A specially created new networking site (http://www.skindividual.co.uk) allows users to grow gig guestlists via their existing profiles on social networks (Facebook, MySpace, bebo and Twitter). The ten people with the largest guestlists on 26th June will be invited to submit a short film expressing why their 'network' should win the gig. These films will then be judged to determine the winning group.
The gig will take place at The Relentless Garage in Islington on 26th August, where Bombay Bicycle Club will also play.
Ladyhawke commented: “Being individual and doing your own thing is one of the most important parts of being young. And let’s face it, your skin is a pretty major part of what makes us who we are, so it’s something we should take extra care in protecting – particularly since skin cancer’s a growing problem in the UK.”
