TOURING : Lost Valentinos

Gad-zoots! Someone must be doing alright over there at etcetc, 'cause sure as eggs, there ain't many acts these days who are afforded the luxury of their very own currency. Yes, we too thought that perhaps the attached picture was of some stock-standard currency, but on closer inspection, we discovered that it is indeed Lost Valentinos money. And it ties in with a competition the band's running that co-incides with the announcement of a national tour. The way the competition's set to happen is that you attend one of the live shows, discover one of these sparkling coins, enter details of the coin on a special website and follow a treasure hunt. The ultimate winner bags a trip for two to the ancient Incan ruins of Peru! Bless. So now that you're suitably excited, we'd best tell you where you can see the band as they traverse the highways and byways of this great nation of ours;
