Aye, and most of them are Scottish. What's your point?

Aye, and it's a pain in the arse for 45 million people. Seriously, people from London should not be complaining this gig isn't in your local for once.

That's not true really, you can get to london from most of the country. Anyway, let's not sully this thread any more.

It's not that easy to get to. But if everything south of glasgow is easier than that, and it's what 60 million people, it proves my point.

This is pretty cool. I doubt we'll be able to make it. We're heading up to Manchester on the 19th and money's pretty tight for me as it is. Shame though.

So everyone north of Glasgow should have to pay through the nose for travel and accommodation on top of tickets to see their favourite band?

And that's not accounting for that fact that King Tuts is tiny (250-300 capacity), and no-one from the 2 million population living within a 60 mile radius of the place is guaranteed a ticket with the amount of people from England, Ireland and Wales already expressing an interest.

For those of you who live there, how easy would it be getting back from Glasgow to Edinburgh after the gig? Will the trains still be running?

I might try and tie this in when I visit my sister in Edinburgh.

I think demand will be high; I'm not even sure who else is playing, but I'm sure they have fans as well.
