A festival is an event ordinarily celebrated by a community and centering on some characteristic aspect or aspects of that community and its religion or cultures. It is often marked as a local or national holiday, mela, or eid. A festival constitutes typical cases of glocalization, as well as the high culture-low culture interrelationship. Next to religion and folklore, a significant origin is agricultural. Food is such a vital resource that many festivals are associated with harvest time. Religious commemoration and thanksgiving for good harvests are blended in events that take place in autumn, such as Halloween in the northern hemisphere and Easter in the southern. Festivals often serve to fulfill specific communal purposes, especially in regard to commemoration or thanking to the gods, goddesses or saints: they are called patronal festivals. They may also provide entertainment, which was particularly important to local communities before the advent of mass-produced ent ...

It was released on 5 June 2006 on EMI Music peaking at No. 13 on the ARIA charts, Australian Singles Charts, the band's highest charting single to date. Reception Nick Craig is of FasterLouder states "Lyrically, "The Game" is about relationships, and ill-fated ones at that." "Musically, End of Fashion sound strong on this track, exhibiting all the elements that have made them a competent band. Burford snarls in his delivery, and the guitars and bass lock in to a fast driving rhythm. There’s some interesting synth beats introduced towards the end, but they are quickly cut short by a thunderous vocal roar. Rapid fire drumming closes the song, plus zappy computer sound effects to reinforce the ‘game’ theme, which also highlight a slick production element that you won’t find in the live show."
