Monday saw Arctic Monkeys release their ‘Cornerstone’ single through Oxfam shops once again for charity after the success of the 7″ ‘Crying Lightning’ vinyl. The 10” format will be available exclusively through Oxfam shops with three extra tracks (and includes a download voucher for a free download of digital versions of the songs)
To celebrate the launch of the new single, Oxfam and the Arctic Monkeys have offered Nialler9 readers two pairs of tickets to their upcoming gigs next week in The Odyssey, Belfast on Wednesday 25th November and The O2, Dublin on Thursday 26th November. To be in with a chance of winning the tickets, email with your preferred gig, your name, number and the answer to this question:

Competition closed. Winners notified.
Oxfam and Arctic Monkeys are also calling on music fans to bring in any unwanted albums or singles to their local Oxfam shop when they pick up their copy of the single, to help Oxfam keep turning yesterday’s hits into vital funds for years to come. And remember that you can do your online Christmas shopping with Oxfam, which has everything from a Fair Trade hamper to an Oxfam Unwrapped goat for a family in a developing country!
