Signing ticket giveaway/Mighty Book of Boosh giveaway/O2 arena PRESALE

Firstly, we have decided not to participate in the Trinity Street O2 Arena presale which takes place tomorrow (Tuesday 9th September) at 9am. This WILL be the same as the previous presale from which many fans (myself included) still haven't received tickets or any idication of where seats will be. So we've taken the executive decision to keep well out of this.

We have ten tickets to give away to each of the Mighty Book signings over the next few months. The Mighty Book of Boosh is released. For all but the first two dates (Glasgow and Dublin) we'd like you to design an advert for the book which we'll place on www.themightyboosh.co.uk - this can be in electronic or paper form. Email entries to competition@themightyboosh.co.uk (subject "book signing competition") or post to Modwolves, PO Box 130, West Wickham, Kent BR4 0XU by Friday 26th September (marking your envelope "book signing competition") . Please make sure you include your full name, address, DOB and mobile number and the date which you'd like to enter for. We are only able to give away 1 ticket per Modwolve as we have such a small allocation.

If you'd like to enter for Glasgow or Dublin please just email competition@themightyboosh.co.uk with subject "Glasgow signing" or "Dublin signing" with your full name, address, DOB and mobile number asap. Glasgow winners will be drawn on 10th September and Dublin winners will be drawn on 15th September.

13th September Launch event @ zavvi, 235 Buchanan Street, Glasgow, G1 2NG (with all cast)
20th September Easons, 40 Lower O’Connell Street, Dublin 1

Jonathan Ross/Tour ticket raffle/Aftershow parties

* Noel and Julian will be appearing on Friday Night With Jonathan Ross this Friday, 5th September, on BBC 1 at 10:35pm.

* Aftershow party details for the tour are still unconfirmed. I am getting official confirmed dates through shortly and will send them out as soon as I receive them.

* Thanks to the unbelievable generosity of one very kind Modwolf who shall be named and honoured at a later date, we have 12 pairs of tickets to the sold out London Brixton academy dates in October which we will be using to raise money in aid of

www.rebeccaling.com
The Rebecca Ling Appeal,

Dave “Bollo” Brown’s neice – please click through to the website to see what an incredibly good and Booshy cause this is. As it’s for charity, the raffle is open to absolutely anyone and everyone.

We have the following tickets to give away

Mon 20th October – 2 pairs of row D circle
Tues 21st October – 2 pairs of row N circle
Wed 22nd October – 2 pairs of row J circle
Thur 23rd October – 2 pairs of row B stalls & 1 pair row D stalls
Fri 24th October – 1 pair of row D stalls & 1 pair row G stalls
Sat 25th October – 1 pair of row C stalls

We want this to be both affordable and raise a huge amount of money for Rebecca so we are going to raffle the tickets and the winners will be drawn from a Booshy hat with independent witnesses! We’re not going down the auction/highest bidder route as that rules out so many Boosh fans.

You can choose which date(s) you’d like to go for but unfortunately you can’t specify which row you’d like if you win. The best seats will go to the first out of the hat for that date.

Tickets are £2 per entry per date and if you want to be entered once into all dates then you can do so for £10.

Please enter as many times as you like/can afford as this is for such a great cause. There is no limit to the number of entries you can buy or the number of tickets you can win. We want to raise as much money as we can for Rebecca.

Paypal payments should go to modwolves@themightyboosh.co.uk - please forward your confirmation onto the same email address along with details of which date(s) you are entering for and how many entries you’d like.

Unfortunately we can't accept cash or cheques but it is free to set up a paypal account and link it to a bank or credit card account or chances are you know someone who does have an account and could do the transfer for you. Sorry about that.

We will draw the winning names on 10th October 2008 to give winners a chance to get organised and tickets will be sent by special delivery as soon as we make contact with winners so you’ll receive them in good time.

So, please enter as many times as possible and best of luck!

News update

Hi all


Few bits and pieces of news, we’ll hopefully have a lot more details of The Mighty Book of Boosh to share with you (including signings around the country) and some sneaky peeks at some of the contents. The official release date is 18th September 2008 and you can preoder the book at a bargain £11.39 (RRP is £18.99) in the BOOSH SHOP - it goes to print on Monday and I can tell you, it’s worth every single little penny, it is truly Mighty.


Tonight Noel appears on E4 in Dolly & Laura’s Funny Cuts at 11:40pm so tune in to watch.

Here’s a link to Dolly & Laura on the Baby Cow website

Baby Cow Website

and another for their facebook event

Also, Dan Clark (Johnny Two Hats in series 1 of the Boosh) has his own sitcom “How Not To Live Your Life” on BBC Three from Tuesday 12th August at 10:20pm – highly recommended.



Modwolves membership has been extended again until at least the end of Sept 08 – there are going to be more bonus gifts but as all the jiffies have been sent out we will be addressing and stamping the next lot ourselves so want to send stuff out in one go!



It’s pretty quiet on the Boosh front at the moment but believe me, it’s going to go to the extreme in a few months time!!
