WIN: A Shihad Prizepack

Tickets, posters, rare pressings...

One of the most successful New Zealand bands to ever cross the Tasman to Australia, rock veterans Shihad are about to embark on an Aussie tour in support of their recently-released best of, The Meanest Hits.

A 38-song career retrospective across two discs, the national tour will showcase the two sides of the band's catalogues as the release does – the first half the high-voltage, pub rock mayhem and the second the radio-love, stadium anthems. (This is including tracks from the controversial name-change era.)

To mark the occasion, we have three prize packs to giveaway, each of them including:

A double pass to any of the capital city shows
Shihad t-shirt
Shihad A2 poster
The New Zealand packaging of the greatest hits album, The Meanest Hits, which has an altered tracklisting

To enter, simply fill out this form. Winners to be announced via the Your Daily SPA newsletter Tuesday 4 September.

Tour dates are as follows

Thursday 6 September – The Hi-Fi, Melbourne
Friday 7 September – The Metro, Sydney
Saturday 8 September – The Hi-Fi, Brisbane
Thursday 27 September – The Governor Hindmarsh, Adelaide
