thompsons was closed down by order of the police for knowingly allowing illegal activities to take place on the premises.

The Humblebums
The Scotia
Carl Wessler found the photograph of The Humblebums.
Carlton Jugband says "It's no the Scotia ~ the roof is too high. Looks like the inside o' the Tardis?"
Given he's possibly studied the ceiling from a vantage point on the floor is he right. The again before I edited his quote, he couldn't distinguish between an apostrophe and a quotation mark. Maybe his vision is impaired.

My father worked in this pub when it was Maitland's Bar, don't think it's changed.

Definitely The Scotia: the column and screen behind Gerry Rafferty, the beamed ceiling, and the original windows, as seen here:-

That's her sister ship, the Tuxedo Royale, Stevie. I was just looking at it at the weekend, funnily enough. The Tuxedo Princess was scrapped in Turkey in 2008.

Hi all,
Does anyone remember a band that used to play in the Three Pigeons, corner of Sauchiehall St/Granville St in the mid 80's? They did some parodies of songs like Yesterday, it became Leprosy, and the did one of Delilah. I thnk it would have been a Friday or Saturday night. They also had a wee American who played harmonica, i think he was called Charles??
Would be awesome if anyone could remember.
