While we were creating our SFTOC archive, we noticed someone was particularly busy uploading ticket stubs & posters. It seemed as though that person could’ve been to every single Sounds... That person was @UrmstonDeb. We reached out for comment. https://t.co/amoFrs1IUr

As the days grow longer, the wait grows shorter, and the tickets grow scarcer. Second Release tickets are VERY NEARLY GONE! Grab yours before Wednesday + you'll save a sweet fiver to keep in the kitty for your first drink on Sounds day. https://t.co/iSNHFjKbe0

@MDMArchive Record a delicious soundbite, pin it to the place where it happened for all to hear, and help us create a living, shifting collective memory of our favourite time and place on earth. For Sounds may only appear on the streets once a year, but here we live forever, baby!

A few months ago, we worked with @MDMArchive to create an archive of our own: documenting our history through your photos & videos. Now, we’ve taken it one step further. The SFTOC Audio Map: A place for our lovely community to preserve & share their spoken memories of Sounds.
