The Slide Away band are set to perform in Scotland for the first time in 15 years tonight, tomorrow and Tuesday at the stadium, which has a gig capacity of 67144.

Followers of the Britpop icons have been spotted flocking to merchandise shops to get their hands on bucket hats, T-shirts and posters.

Euan Smith, 22, spent £280 on posters, a scarf, some Tshirts and the famous Adidas jersey.
