Sony and Last.fm open fantasy festival

Sony and Last.fm have teamed up to launch what they claim is the world's first fantasy music festival, writes Revolution Magazine.The competition, in the style of fantasy football game, will give music fans across Europe a €1 million budget to put together their fantasy festival line up.

You can create custom leagues, invite your friends and battle it out for festival supremacy. There are regular prizes for the best performing festivals and the overall winner is presented with a music lover's dream prize - four "money can't buy" tickets (including VIP accommodation, flights and spending money) to one of Europe's best festivals.

The music service will score musicians based on trends, listening data and online buzz, to determine the rankings, beginning in mid-November. Weekly prizes will be awarded to the top competitor, as well as the grand prize at the end of the six month competition.
