Sound Engineer, Lighting Tech, Roadie, DJ, Barman, generally useful dude. It's fair to say I'm alright, me.

@Herring1967 Bit like the ridiculous train between Huddersfield & Sheffield. Only 20-odd miles apart, but takes an hour & a half because it stops at every bastard lamppost in Yorkshire.

[Mark Earnshaw @ElChimpador]

Oh look... another example of it...

@paddyajones "Dynamic Pricing" is royally fucking normal people's ability to go to gigs

[Mark Earnshaw @ElChimpador]

Seems like as good a time as any to repost this...

[Mark Earnshaw @ElChimpador]

Ticketmaster & their "dynamic pricing" really need to fuck off into the the centre of the sun. £167 PLUS FEES per ticket for Slipknot standing? Nahhhh...

[Mark Earnshaw @ElChimpador]

@PeterBlueshay @VFinnishProbs @KateEMcCann Things felt a whole lot better in general last time around. And the financial crash was global, rather than UK specific. No fan of Blair or Brown (although he was dealt a rough hand), and certainly not a fan of Keith, but even a slight improvement on this lot is an improvement.

[Mark Earnshaw @ElChimpador]

@porksmith What an ensemble. Going to miss the show enormously when it's over (yes I know it can be rewatched for eternity, and better to knock it off whilst it's at the peak, but still...)

Still annoyed that I missed you all by about 10mins the other year when on campus at Humber...

@NekoSwavvey You might want to listen more closely to your boy.

[##SWAVEY## @NekoSwavvey]

My boy is trying to put me on Sage Francis. Hahaha I told him Drake is better and he got mad 😂

[Mark Earnshaw @ElChimpador]

Fucksake... someone just pointed out that All Eyes On The Saint by @ENTERSHIKARI could be the alternate timeline soundtrack to a @CathedralCity advert & now I can't unsee a Shikari cheese advert in my head...

[Mark Earnshaw @ElChimpador]

@NickyRR Sounds like @AuntyDonnaBoys are in the house!

[Mark Earnshaw @ElChimpador]

@GlennFlannery @TheAthletic Woolwich Wanderers

[Mark Earnshaw @ElChimpador]

Ticketmaster & their "dynamic pricing" really need to fuck off into the the centre of the sun. £167 PLUS FEES per ticket for Slipknot standing? Nahhhh...

[Mark Earnshaw @ElChimpador]

@OfficialRandL Just the acts announced so far make this the best lineup since the cancelled one in 2020.

[Mark Earnshaw @ElChimpador]

@JosephConners You two & @ChrisHero in Leeds for @TIDALWRESTLING was a banger

[Mark Earnshaw @ElChimpador]

@AlexHorne Eagerly awaiting the lineup for next series...

[Mark Earnshaw @ElChimpador]

@elf_lyons great set this afternoon in Manc on the AD support. Will be keeping an eye out for more gigs in the north!

[Mark Earnshaw @ElChimpador]

@empilbeam "It's a bar, not a bank, spread the fuck out" is my usual go-to

[Mark Earnshaw @ElChimpador]

@Spag_bella @SouthernRailUK Same with late night services between Leeds & Hudds/Manchester with @TPExpressTrains which buggers my commute. Rarely had an issue getting in or out of work pre-2020 (unless there works). Now it's rarer for me to have a straightforward work day commute than not!

[Mark Earnshaw @ElChimpador]

@GeorgeH873 @OfficialRandL People didn't get it for Rage last year. Won't happen this year. If you buy a festival ticket for one act, that's on you.

[Mark Earnshaw @ElChimpador]

@dobsy1983 @OfficialRandL Definitely need to be upgraded from FR tent considering they sold out Wembley Arena in minutes. But then the bookers would have to admit there's still a demand for rock music outside of Download/SlamDunk, etc...

[Mark Earnshaw @ElChimpador]

@JamesPurchase08 @OfficialRandL Idles would be a banger somewhere in there. Especially as we missed out on them back-to-backing Rage in the COVID year.
