Bannermans
 | Bannermans is located in the catacombs of Edinburgh's Old Town, a part of town that was once blighted by plague. Given a complete lack of quality medical care ("take these leeches and call me in the morning if you're alive.") the whole area was given up as lost and basically buried.
Many years later the myriad tunnels and chambers were once more exposed, as people started moving back in to them. Bannermans is located at the heart of this, which turned out to be a very good thing indeed. You see, stone doesn't burn.
Just two years ago a large chunk of the Old Town was decimated by a massive fire which took out most of a city block. Bannermans escaped due to some very brave firemen in big red trucks, and by virtue of being tunnelled back into centuries old walls.
And yes, we have a ghost.... http://www.bannermansgigs.co.uk phone: (0131) 556 3254

King Tuts Wah Wah Hut
 | King Tut's Wah Wah Hut is one of Glasgow's leading concert venues, renowned in Scotland as an exciting showcase for new and emerging bands and as the venue that supported some of the UK music industry's biggest names at the start of their careers.
Owned and managed by Scotland's foremost music promoters DF Concerts, King Tut's has throughout its twelve-year history played host to bands including Radiohead, Blur, Travis, Pulp and The Verve before they reached the heights of music superstardom. It also hosted the first Scottish gigs for Beck, Crowded House and The Strokes, and created a piece of rock and roll history as the venue where Oasis were first spotted and signed in 1993.
King Tut's was founded in 1990 by DF Concerts' former boss Stuart Clumpas. Keen to promote bands at club level and to present them seven days a week at a reasonable hour of the day in Glasgow, Clumpas was unable to find any suitable venues in the city centre so decided that the best solution was to start one himself.
Borrowing the name from a venue in New York, King Tut's Wah Wah Hut opened in February of that year in basement premises in Glasgow's St Vincent Street, aiming from the outset to offer Scotland's best line up of new and established bands, as well as being a relaxing place to enjoy good food and drink.
Within months King Tut's was established as the place to hang out for Glasgow's music lovers and for bands and music fans visiting the city, with a host of part time musicians and artists signing up for jobs behind the bar.
Each month the promoters presented an eclectic mix of music acts to a loyal audience, who were appreciative of the promoters' talent for being one step ahead in spotting the music industry's Œnext big thing'. This is evident from King Tut's programmes throughout the decade, no more so than in May 1993 when The Verve, Radiohead and Oasis all played within a two week period, and when ŒGlass Onion' were a regular attraction in the days before they changed their name to Travis.
Pulp, Suede, Gomez, Barenaked Ladies, Catatonia, Beck, Ash, Supergrass, the Charlatans, Deacon Blue, Rae & Christian and Mercury Rev have all taken to the stage throughout the years to play for the King Tut's crowd. And regardless of a band's stature, the philosophy behind King Tut's has remained constant - an extension of DF Concerts' commitment to professionalism and support for artists at all levels. This ethos has not gone unnoticed by the bands, and the venue received the ultimate accolade at T in the Park 1999 when the Manic Street Preachers dedicated a song to "King Tut's, the first venue to treat us properly and give us hot food on tour".
Having reached legendary status in the music business, King Tut's decided to branch out in 1999 with the launch of a monthly comedy night where the likes of Phil Kay, Lynn Ferguson and Fred MacAuley have taken to the stage, alongside some of Scotland's rising young comics.
In February 2000 King Tut's celebrated its decade at the forefront of music with ten days of special one-off concerts, parties and surprise guests, and a renewed commitment to providing a platform for bands and to bringing the best new acts to Glasgow in the future.
November 2001 saw King Tut's being named as the ŒLicensed Music Pub of the Year' by the Scottish Licensed Trade News and in 2002 the venue is enjoying a new look with a £25,000 refurbishment of the upstairs bar. The venue has also recently been successful in its application for a 1am license, giving even more bands the chance to play to the King Tut's crowd.
In recognition of the fact that a gig at the three hundred capacity venue has become the seminal point in the career of an impressive array of artists, Radio One pronounced King Tut's as the ŒBest Launch Pad Venue 2000' and the ŒUK's Best Live Venue' in 2002.
We're building an archive of all things King Tuts so if you have any fond memories of nights at King Tut's or if you have any memorabilia from back in the day, please drop us an email at Info@kingtuts.co.uk or post an entry on our Forum. http://www.kingtuts.co.uk
