I haven't heard anything about the venue yet (?)

Hopefuly it won't be the SECC. Though I have a feeling it is.

The Barrowlands would be nice though !

Strange one this..........the main reason a show like this has never came to Scotland before is allegedly there not a venue big enough to stage a show this size?

My guess is the SECC(it's the biggest venue we have here) as i can't see an outdoor show being held in May.

4000 , I thought it was 5000 ? ... anywho , that's a yearly festival in Cork that runs over a few weeks , Roger was just one of the shows in that "venue" so unless there's a similar thing in Glasgow , I can't see them setting up a Marquee specially for it *

* I have been wrong in the past .... actually - quite a lot

They erected a tent in Glasgow Green for REM to play in after the SECC couldn't fit their postponed show into their schedule. I'm assuming the capacity would have to have been about 14000 to account for the number of tickets originally on sale.

Much rather see Waters (again) in a tent than in an aircraft hanger going by the name of Hall 4!

How many people does the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall hold ?.Pity he didn't play in the summer then he could have done Hampden Park.
