Loaded, But On A Budget?

I've just been switched on to a very interesting website - http://www.hostelbookers.com/. If it reminds me of anything, its not unlike lastminute.com, but for people who are travelling on a tight budget. I have to say though that looking through some of the accommodation, hostels these days are a step up from the kind of thing I was used to in my youth - several of the ones in Amsterdam, for example, are positively funky!

The site is currently running a competition to win tickets to Get Loaded In the Park 2009, with two nights in nearby accommodation thrown in for good measure. This is the dance music festival taking place on Clapham Common on Sunday 30 August, headlined by the amazing Orbital (I was heavily into them back in the day, and also A Guy Called Gerald, but I'm saying no more about it... Manchester isn't what it was!)

To enter, all you have to do is watch the video posted on the site's blog here, and guess which five songs,by which five bands, who performed at last year's festival, have been covered by the quirky Brockdorff Klang Labor, and then send your entry in to [email protected]. The compo closes on 15 July so get your answers in quick :)
