Thought we were in row 4. Got into the hall and they'd removed the front three rows for the video camera tracks. Result!

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Very sad news that a local legend from the Boro, Chris Rea, has passed away today. First saw him play at the HMV store in Stockton - and his last show in the area in 2017. Thanks for the great music! #ChrisRea #Middlesbrough #SteelRiver #WindyTown #Tees

Finally got round to reading Glen Matlock's book "Triggers". A terrific, interesting read. Loved seeing him play with Blondie in Scarborough a couple of years ago and looking forward to his return to the Open Air Theatre next year. #Scarborough #GlenMatlock #ConcertPhotography

Great idea Tim. Got hundreds of tickets from across more than 45 years of gig going and each one triggers welcome memories - and I miss the ones I’ve occasionally lost.

I asked a while back about people collecting (and now missing) physical tickets and it got us thinking After a couple of months of work we made something amazing (props to tech wizard Andrew and our Merch Market team) Totally free, yours to use from Friday *sound up*

There was also an obsession with getting trapped in old fridges and putting rugs on polished floors - might as well set a mantrap.

There's something about a good old hand-written setlist rather than something churned out of Word. Seth Lakeman's setlist last night at The Glasshouse in Gateshead. #SethLakeman #Folk
