DUNDEE band The View hailed Glasgow as the "f*cking b*llocks" while they performed on the main stage at TRNSMT today.
Their frontman Kyle Falconer, appeared on stage wearing a bright red Umbro two-piece and acclaimed: “Do you get any better than Glasgow? I’m from Dundee and I say that. Glasgow is the f*cking b*llocks,” the singer proceed to kick off the set with Grace.
The band presented a united front after an on-stage bust-up, as we reported back in May.
So far on Friday, crowds have enjoyed sets from acts including The View; Joesef; and Declan Welsh & the Decadent West.
Former Beautiful South singer Paul Heaton will also play as will Niall Horan from One Direction.
Heaton was popular in Glasgow’s east end when he put substantial bar tabs behind five bars near to Glasgow Green.
