Win tickets to Oxegen / W.H.O.A

theverybest In Day and Night today, it’s the fourth week of the Oxegen giveaway so pop on over to blog to enter to win two weekend tickets.

Also over there you’ll find some cool videos (especially the dinosaur one), a look at Songkick, links to stuff like a Manga comic about Jesus and the RIAA case against the 32-year old mother of four. In the music section this week I featured the proper recording of a song I debuted in video form a year ago from The Very Best’s (Radioclit and Esau Mwamawaya) forthcoming album out in August. The title track and opening song features Ezra of Vampire Weekend. Pure sunshine in aural form.

The Very Best – Warm Heart of Africa

On the gigs front for the weekend – This Box Social gig is worth a look.
