Win a Balance Book!






If you are a regular listener to my show, you will know that the "Balance: European Hardcore" book is out. Last night, the lovely folks from Balance came in and announced a competition to win a signed copy!



Heres Tom to tell you more:

May asked me to write a few lines about a book myself and the photographer Sophia Schorr-Kon have put together called Balance: European Hardcore. I’m very tempted to make something ridiculous up but that would be childish and unprofessional and I’m really mature and professional and stuff. So let’s get serious - Balance focuses on the lives of some of the people in the European hardcore scene and the “balance” they must strike between their day jobs and hardcore. Sophia and myself traveled through a number of European countries, documenting what we saw in a collection of beautiful photos and (half decent) writing. We met Subway managers in Germany, miners in Poland, tattooists in Portugal – all trying to juggle their working lives with promoting shows, playing in bands, or designing merch. We moved through the various countries quickly, partly to keep the work as honest and as true to what we saw as possible, and partly because we had a seriously tight dealine. We’re both very proud of how the book has come out and would like to give London Calling readers and Totalrock listeners the chance to win a copy for themselves.
The question that must be answered in order for this to happen is:

Which city in the UK are Knuckledust from:
a. Henley Upon Thames
b. Skegness
c. London




Please email your answers to: mayhemandmore@gmail.com, stating your name and address, by the 25th April. The winner will be picked by Tom and Sophia live on air. Good luck!
