The form of my article is an interview, keeping it casual. The tone is very relaxed but informative to the reader.
Containing what exactly they want to hear including events and celebrities. This casual mode of address connects
with my young target market of young affluent workers and emergent service workers. This link to events in the
article links to how my demographic like to spend their spare time (going to gigs, listening to music).
