Bizarro World
It's contagious, this Bizarro World phenomenon...
A week or so ago, I ordered a lovely Snake Oil (aka Snakred Heart) T-shirt from Frank "Gallows" Carter's newly launched Diamond Skulls Social Club range. They are limited editions, this one of 111, signed and numbered and rather fetching.
Then a few days later, a MySpace bulletin from Gallows said, "Buy a Skulls T-shirt on Monday [19 May], and get a free ticket to the launch party."
I'd been toying with the idea of buying another shirt anyway, cos I really liked the cranberry-red Skull one, so a free ticket for the launch night, at which four bands including Gallows are due to play, seemed a ridiculously good deal. I ordered my shirt and wondered whether it was just a gag...
Today the new shirt arrived -- limited edition of 50, this one -- with NOT ONE BUT TWO free tickets in the package -- that's added value of £20 (US$40) on ordering a £30 shirt. How fucking cool is that?! Not to mention bizarro.
Here's a link for those of you who want to purchase a shirt or two yourselves.

That's a pretty sweet deal.
He might try to look big and scary wielding baseball bats and that, but Little Frank Carter is not a bad lad, really.
those shirts are fuckin' great dude. i really dig the cranberry red one too. we're on opposite sides of the Atlantic, it's probably safe for me to get one too
Congrats that is cool. Have fun and enjoy yourself.
that's pretty rad, man. and now you get to go see 'em again!
Red: Sweet indeed, my sweet. Some people know how to look after the fans.
f/Ball: Yeah, unlikely we'll just bump into each other at the same pub or whatever!
Tweetey: Thanks. Will do.
Martha: Rad it is, and yep, another gig in a very short time frame.
