TRNSMT festival returns to Glasgow with a twist
The Scotland vs Morocco game will be shown on gigantic screens later.
Scotland's biggest music festival will run on into the wee small hours of tomorrow as thousands of people stay on to watch Steve Clarke's side play Morocco later.
Tonight's headliner, Richard Ashcroft, is finishing his set at 10.30 before the World Cup is beamed in to tens of thousands of fans at Glasgow Green.
George Bowie MBE will be playing a very special GBX set for half an hour before the game starts at 11pm UK time.
Kieran Luddy is playing the King Tut's stage with his band, The Rooks.
He said: "We're at our first World Cup for 28 years, we will do our best to stay off the drink tonight to make sure we are on good form for tomorrow.
"I'm expecting hungover crowds, but it's all part of the fun.
"We've played a lot festivals over the last year and every time promoters say to us 'we can't wait for you to meet the crowd', they forget we are from Glasgow and the standard is set at home."
