Wild Beasts invite you to gamble

Wild Beasts are doing a small show. Rather than just throw open the server and get a twenty second sell-out, though, they're holding a lottery:

Members of the public who want to enter a ticket ballot for the show can do so via the band's official website.

The draw will close on Monday, December 3 at 9am, after which randomly-selected winners will be sent a link to purchase tickets.

You can throw your virtual hat into the cyberring on the Wild Beasts website.

Wouldn't this be a splendid model for Glastonbury to follow?
