- Hi @littlewander.bsky.social, I’m looking at coming to Mach for the first time, where’s best to ask newbie questions like “What’s the difference between the showcases in the Arena and Y Plas?”

- Thanks guys, we’ll probably do the Arena one night and Plas the other night then 👍 When do you think the overall festival line-up will be finished? We’ve booked a bunch of tickets already so looking to finish off the planning 🤓

- Finished the amazing Smoggie Queens on BBC last night. Proper laugh-out-loud comedy set in the Middlesbrough gay scene, highly recommended!
- 2 years after listening to the excellent @trvecvltpop.bsky.social special on The Fragile by @nin.com, I’ve just listened to their equally excellent special on With Teeth. Both specials are highly recommended to any NIN fans, and I’ve had a lovely time this weekend rediscovering the NIN back catalog
