LONDON, July 4/PRNewswire/ --

- With Photo

- Interviews Available

Gig Junkie made the Richardson family from Southampton the luckiest
family on earth when they won the Glastonbury VIP Competition worth
GBP10,000. They were chauffer driven to and from the festival, given VIP
backstage passes and stayed at the luxurious Camp Kerala. Matt Richardson
said:

"Having won VIP passes last year I thought it was a wind up when we got
the call from Gig Junkie! This was the best Glasto ever! I am an absolute Gig
Junkie and I saw all my favourite bands perform, and I got to meet most of
them in the VIP area for photos and autographs!"

The Richardsons were drawn from almost 10,000 entrants and couldn't have
been more deserving! The whole family are absolute Gig Junkies, going to lots
of gigs and festivals and have won loads of competitions for tickets and
prizes.

Gig Junkie will be launching their Glastonbury 2009 VIP Experience
competition again very soon!

The Gig Junkie team also decamped to Glastonbury and when we weren't
checking out some amazing bands we took the time to run a couple of surveys.
We asked over 2,000 Glastonbury Goers as they arrived and before the bands
started playing:

1. With all of the controversy, Jay-Z, thumbs up or thumbs down?

The Result: Thumbs Up 49%. Thumbs Down 29%. Undecided 22%.

2. Who is your must see band at Glastonbury 2008?

The Top 5 were: 1. Kings of Leon

2. Hot Chip

3. The Verve

4. Jay-Z

5. Amy Winehouse

Gig Junkie have given away tickets to this weekend's ZOO8 in Kent too and
will be completing some more surveys to report back on next week.
