The Musical City

Published on 14 September 2015

Glasgow is a very musical city. I don’t just mean the National Centre of Piping, but also the many artists originating from the city, and the bands that have been discovered here.
But even though I’ve been here a couple of times now, I hadn’t been to King Tut’s Wah Wah Hut yet. So this time I had my girlfriend h–na pick the most promising band of the week — Young Kato — and reserved some tickets for them.
I didn’t quite realise they would be preceded by a supporting act. I should have known, since Oasis was discovered right here, when performing as a supporting act.
But there wasn’t not just one, but three bands preceding the main act!
I don’t know if any of them will ever will become famous — the potential was there — but if they do, I can at least say I was there while they were still playing as a supporting act…

Kelvingrove

Published on 14 September 2015

When the tourist bus arrived at the Kelvingrove Museum, I simply had to get out! Not for the museum though, but for a wee drink at BrewDog Glasgow…
We skipped lunch today, so we really needed something to eat around four, and we went to Bread Meats Bread. Apparently we weren’t the only ones feeling a bit peckish!
Since we still have a couple of hours to go, we decided to go for another coffee.

Euro Hostels

And finally it was time to check into our hostel, for that long awaited shower and change of clothes.
All clean, we headed for the CitySightseeing bus, to see if we missed any sights last time we were in Glasgow.

Where the Monkey Sleeps

Published on 14 September 2015

It’s becoming a habit: the MegaBus sleeper arriving in Glasgow way too early, and having breakfast at Where the Monkey Sleeps after ditching the luggage. However, we visited the new venue of Where the Monkey Sleeps, since it’s a bit closer to the hostel. A bit more open and lighter than the original, but the same impressive bagels!
