Arctic Monkeys, in collaboration with The Big Issue, are producing a special tour supplement which will be onsale exclusively to their fans at all venues on their forthcoming UK dates. The supplement will be included in a special edition of next week’s Christmas Big Issue, and features never-before-seen photos and accompanying text by the band and crew documenting Arctic Monkeys’ spectacular 2007.
“The Big Issue are delighted to be working with Arctic Monkeys and proud to be including this unique collectors item with our special Xmas bumper issue.
For the vendors who are attending the gigs and selling The Big Issue with an exclusive Arctic Monkeys interview, alongside this tour supplement, provides a fantastic opportunity to earn some extra cash just before Xmas as well as being able to watch the boys in action!"
So says the Press Release. Which we...erm...re-worded pretty much above.
