Itinerário
Um dos melhores bares de música ao vivo de Glasgow, este bar Clydeside é coberto por murais que mostram a diversidade da cena musical da cidade ao longo dos anos.
O mais antigo salão de música sobrevivente da Grã-Bretanha, o venerável Britannia Panopticon ainda é um local de trabalho. Além de receber artistas escoceses lendários, como Harry Lauder, esta joia escondida e atmosférica já viu estrelas de palco que vão de Cary Grant a Stan Laurel. Atualmente, devido ao Covid, não temos acesso ao Britannia Panopticon, embora ainda possamos contar todas as suas ótimas histórias.
As prefeituras e o Old Fruitmarket têm sido o local para muitos shows memoráveis, incluindo o show dos The Stranglers, que levou ao punk rock sendo banido em Glasgow.
Agora, um dos principais locais de teatro e concertos, a história deste edifício inclui um encontro devastador com o notório Hellfire Club.
O Barrowland Ballroom é muito querido pelos frequentadores de Glasgow e sua história é tão colorida quanto as bandas que tocaram aqui.
A obra de Barrowland Pathway destaca muitos dos atos que tiveram seu local homônimo. E de The Smiths e Simple Minds a David Bowie e Bob Dylan, temos histórias brilhantes sobre muitos dos grandes nomes que jogaram aqui.
Uma bela igreja do século XVIII transformada em um local de música ao vivo, o St Andrews tem links animados para os maiores nomes da história cultural da Escócia.
Terminamos em King's Court, onde seu guia irá revelar nossas teorias sobre por que Glasgow desenvolveu sua própria cena musical única. De Postcard Records a 13th Note e Mono Bar, esta é uma área rica em histórias sobre cenas de música passadas e presentes de Glasgow.

My husband and I did the tour on Saturday . What an enjoyable experience! Fiona being a music journalist had so many anecdotes to share . Always wanted to visit the Panopticon but never noticed the entrance . She told us lots of stories about it . Also didn’t know about Barrowland park and the walkway. We’re Glaswegians but she was able to tell us so much more . An easy walking pace for us oldies so don’t let age put you off. Go for it
