The Levi's® Rage for the Revolution concert promotes testing by increasing prevention awareness and debunking HIV myths that create testing barriers. New Start is South Africa'slargest non profit HIV counselling and testing programme, and having partnered with the Levi's® brand since 2007 on mobile HIV testing initiatives, is now the proud sponsor of this year's concert. YFM has signed on as a partner this year and will be broadcasting from the event live.

Tickets are R80 and R100 if you buy them at the gate but this year, the first 5000 adults who test at any New Start Centre in Gauteng between 21 September & 9 October automatically receive free access to the concert and VIP treatment in the Levi's® Red For Life Circle to get up close and personal with these amazing muso's. Those who test at New Start outside of Gauteng from the 14 to 26 September stand a 1 in 10 chance of winning either a limited edition Rage for the Revolution compilation CD or a VIP ticket to Rage.

The Rage philosophy is “Work It Out For Yourself: and in support of this ethos performing artists and YFM DJs will do just that by getting tested at Red For Life/New Start centres during the campaign.

Red For Life/New Start mobile HIV counselling and testing centres will be out 6 days a week nationwide during the promotion—assisted by the permanent New Start locations. To help find your nearest New Start HIV counselling and testing centre, an innovative sms search line is available to everyone. Simply sms “HIV” plus your post code, with a space in between, to 31771 and you'll get an instant reply of the centre nearest to you. SMS's charged at standard rates.

For those who chose to buy tickets, they are available at www.tunegum.com as well as at the Menlyn and Rosebank Levi's® Stores.
