@GaryLineker Back in the 70s, there was a documentary about Referee Jack Taylor, and they mic'd him up for a game. As he ran past a player, rolling on the floor, he said, "Get up, Son, we haven't got time to bury you."

Mine was on Zoom, and I thought I’d got away with not being recognised, till the instructor asked people if they could think of ways to keep calm whilst driving. Someone suggested listening to some James Blunt, and everyone pissed themselves.

School roofs are caving in, hospitals are in special measures, everybody is on strike, nothing works anymore, our public services have been neglected and cut. Britain is falling apart and it’s all the Tories fault. Give us an election so we can have grown ups in charge again.

Im with @RebeccaDownesUK all the way. Even if you can't afford a gig ticket, or a CD or a tee shirt. Follow/like your bands on social media. Or write them a review, comment on their videos. One genuine supporter is better than a million bots.x #SupportLiveMusic

Hi all, if you have a mo and want to, it massively helps if you ‘follow’ or ‘like’ the band page. Here’s the link. Loads of band pay for adverts, pay for followers but we don’t as we spend our cash on producing albums! Any help so appreciated ❤️❤️❤️xxx

One year ago, this wasn't even an idea. We had the Skegness Rock and Blues every January, but they took that away. So we said, "Let's do it ourselves". We can guarantee EVERY band is getting paid. None of this exposure nonsense Only £69/Weekend ticket
