Glasvegas in Stockholm

Pure coincidence finds me located in Stockholm the same night Glasvegas play Globens Annexe. Intrigued how their regional brand of Indie rock translates further North, a short train journey to the ice hockey stadium on the outskirts of the city reveals the Annexe (as the name suggests) to be a smaller room off the main hall, although still incorporating a capacity of approximately 2,700.  Highlighting the Swedish Capitols commitment to Glasvegas, I’m surrounded in a packed arena by a relatively wide age range of locals for the Glaswegians second visit to the city this year.  Perhaps I shouldn’t be surprised, the debut album reaching gold status in this part of Scandinavia.
