A screen shot from the NME article announcing the line up - headline says: New Order, The Charlatans, Inspiral Carpets and more to host stalls at Manchester Merch Market. I’ve cheekily circled the ‘and more’ and added ‘inc yours truly doing an on stage interview with the wonderful Dave Haslam’

ICYMI (I doubt you did) a mega line up’s been announced for @tim-burgess.bsky.social #MerchMarket and, as ever, there are slots for lesser known creatives like me. So i’ve been invited by the always lovely
@davehaslam.bsky.social to do an onstage interview about my latest book. Who’s coming? Link 👇🏻
