Barrowland Ballroom

Yes.

Glasgow Barrowlands, wasn't

it? Was it Aberdeen?

Aberdeen, yeah.

Yes, that guy.

I'm sure they had him pretending to be possessed in the Scotia bar in the Barrowlands once.

And...

I wonder, I bet, what was it called?

And yeah, that would be, that's another one of my main influences.

I also went to see Radiohead on the tour for The Bends, which was one of my favorite albums of theirs as well, at the Barrowlands in Glasgow, which is a brilliant, brilliant venue that's still going to this day.

It still goes, yeah.

I've been to the Barrowlands.

I was a student up in Edinburgh and I went across to the Barrowlands.

I can't remember who it was I went to see.

Saw Radiohead, actually.

Sometimes you don't get out of these situations, but you certainly learn about them.

Me and Mark didn't learn because we went into pretty much exactly the same pub in Glasgow, opposite the Barrowland, where there was punk music playing.

We thought, oh, we'll go in there, and they started playing Who Are Up The Ra.

That's making me hyperventilate.

Her singing talent was spotted at an early age.

Alan Hurray, older brother, he was a musician and he worked in the Barrowlands Ballroom in Glasgow.

He was in there with the dance band.

When Lena, it became obvious that she could sing, her brother talked her into coming in and singing with the dance band.

He

got asked to do a show on Clyde Belt Radio and which is actually a really nice little setup behind the Barrowland if you've ever been down that it's kind of strange being in there on a Sunday Sunday afternoon or Sunday lunchtime I was there at one o'clock and it was like a total hive of activity there's loads of people about massive queue for the coffee stand outside bad and just a lot of activity and I guess sometimes you just you don't realize that all of this is going on in your own city until you're until you're there in the thick of it that's

why I'm excited about being in there full time JP there is a buzz about that area again so yeah definitely oh definitely and

Clyde Belt Radio is as you come out the door of bad walk across the street and it's maybe two stalls down from Zico's

You know, I love all the records.

I've bought all the records so far.

seen them on pretty much every step of their career to this point in terms of like the venue sizes that they've gone through playing Tuts and then SWG3 then the Barrowland famously on the day that we beat Ferencváros in the afternoon um and then the academy um oh no i didn't see in the academy i saw the corn exchange in edinburgh saw them at transmit and then i saw them in italy at a festival called uh la prima estate which was incredible like 10 000 people in italy going nuts to them like that's two years ago and then yeah i'm going to go to slain castle next next year i've never been a gig at slain castle so i always wanted to go and who better? There's not actually been that many gigs at Slane Castle, to be honest, because there's not many bands that can sell enough tickets to fill it.

And they're doing two nights.

Got the mission statement out.

And with my friends over the next few years, we ... 2,000 people from our first title match at the Barrowlands, which is a massive music venue in Glasgow.

And then 4,000 people the year after for myself and Grado and the SECC with Mick Foley as the referee.

And then inevitably over 7,000 people in the Hydro where WWE runs today.
