Don’t think so it’s pretty industrial around there. Cook street has a couple of food places on it that look like they only do deliveries only there’s always mopeds sitting outside it.Quote:

Depends if you like Moroccan, Lybian, Syrian, Kurdish food or not. We went to Naranj a while back and it was lovely. But if you want something a bit more standard then head back into town.Quote:

3 of my favourite bands today announced "UK tours", with not a single date that ventures outside of England - I'm getting so utterly sick of how much Glasgow is dwindling as a location (certainly in the rock/punk/metal scene). In the last 12 months, that's Rise Against, Beartooth, Silverstein, Thursday, Superheaven, Architects, Spanish Love Songs, Slayer, Allt (to name but a few) bands that have completely missed out Scotland (not to mention Northern Ireland, and mostly Wales too).
Major venues in Scotland will ultimately end up closing their doors if booking agents and artists continue to ignore Scottish stops on major tours.
Saw the Mary Wallopers last night, good fun as always despite the recent departure of Sean McKenna.
I believe it is.Quote:

As others have said, it's a short walk into the city centre. The St Enoch centre has a few places. You are spoilt for choice if you cross the bridge, it's only a 10-15 minute walk.Quote:

Emotional night in Glasgow on Monday as Fish signed off on a stellar career. Fans from far and wide in attendance and a cracking set to end it all. I first saw Marillion at the Playhouse in 1987, was at Fish’ final gig with them at Fife Aid in St Andrews and saw many solo shows, including at the Hibs Club. He’ll be sorely missed. Hope we see him at Easter Road on occasion but it a long trip from the Outer Hebrides.

Last two gigs I've managed to get parked in Bedford Street. Admittedly trying to get back to Cook St having not found a parking space!Quote:

Heading to the Cathouse Glasgow right now to see Blacktop Mojo and Shamans Harvest.
Michale Kiwanka at the Usher Hall last week - what a show
Jason Donovan tonight :greengrin
Wonderful gig from Katherine Priddy at Oran Mor last night.

Those Damn Crows at La Belle Angelle last night was absolutely awesome, blew the roof off, an incredible live rock band.
Lola Young on Wednesday in Glasgow for me
Salt House tomorrow. Woohoo!
The Blockheads are playing The Mac Arts on Thursday night , I'm thinking of going if it doesn't clash with a hospital appointment I'm waiting to hear about
The Blockheads were fantastic , the fact that yesterday was the anniversary of Ian Dury's passing made it even more special . Decent support from The Rooks who come from Hamilton
Who was playing drums, please?Quote:

My Bloody Valentine announced dates pity it’s the hydro up here.
