Glasgow’s Barrowland Ballroom is one of the most recognisable music venues in the world which has welcomed many famous bands and musicians over the years.
Although the original building was largely destroyed by fire in 1958, the ballroom reopened again on Christmas Eve 1960 with bands such as The Rolling Stones and The Kinks performing at the venue during the early years.
The venue came back to life again in 1983 after Simple Minds recorded the video for their hit single Waterfront at the disused ballroom which signalled the beginning of a new chapter in the Barrowland story.
Time Out even named the music venue as the best in the UK last year after they did a poll of British artists in which Barrowland beat the O2 Brixton Academy, The Palladium and O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire.

English guitarist Phil Cunningham of New Order said: "It’s a good size at just under 2,000 cap and has a sprung dance floor. It feels like the whole place is bouncing when you get a good crowd in. We played a chaotic but great show there back in 2001 when I had just joined New Order." | AFP via Getty Images
