Free music is great. Even better is when it's one of the world's top acts that you're not paying to see. That's why the iTunes festival is worth a mention.
It runs every night in July at the Roundhouse in Camden, London, and to get tickets all you need is to be a Facebook friend of iTunes or, if that's all a bit too revoltingly corporate wacky, sign up for a free Standard Card from the London Evening Standard newspaper.
Another route if you don't want either of those is to enter this competition.
Personally I'd use this route:
www.standard.co.uk/itunes
You can sign up for your card during the application process. And tickets are made available for different artists every week.
