Someone please buy my MCR Wembley ticket for tonight:

Anyone got a spare for Basement in Glasgow? Going to that show would probably be more sensible than going to Leeds tbh…
I NEED a ticket for BMTH CYB Friday, please! Feels like general sale on Friday is gonna be a nightmare…
I have 2 tickets for sale for the Lord of the Rings All-Dayer @HydeParkPH for tomorrow, if anyone is looking:

Get in touch on social media. Or email: [email protected] The UK Disability History and Heritage Hub logo is in the bottom left. This is made up of a red rectangular speech bubble, a blue speech bubble and an orange thought bubble, with our name in black letters on a green background in the centre of the three.

There’s nothing quite like seeing footage of your ex, on a band’s Instagram stories, moshing at a gig to really make you feel 🤢🤢
