Iron Maiden Glasgow SECC 🤘🏻

feellikeanalien · 09/11/2018 19:37

This is really going to show my age but it was the Osmonds at the Glasgow Apollo. It's not there any more but that was the first of many bands I saw there over the years.

In my defence I was only 13!

BertieBotts · 09/11/2018 19:37

The Rasmus Grin 2003 or 2004 IIRC.
