Charity Monkeys (Part 2)
I take pride in the fact that I’m usually one the ball for release days of collectable editions, This was not the case on the release day of Arctic Monkeys “Crying Lightning”.
About halfway into the day of release it dawned on me that I forgot to pass my local Oxfam in the morning, frantically I made a dash for it only to discover it was closed. Googling Oxfam store locator on my Nokia 5800 I set out to find other nearby branches only to discover that stock had already sold out. With the threat of disappointment looming I decided to check my local branch the following morning in the hope that the store never actually opened that fateful Monday, thankfully this was the case and now I can rest easy with my collection intact.
Charity Monkeys
So Arctic Monkeys have decided to release the physical comeback single “Crying Lightning” on vinyl only. The 7″ version will only be available through charity store Oxfam.
Each copy is to have a unique code for input on the Domino Records website for a chance to win 1 of 2 tickets to see their Reading or Leeds Festival performance.
