FRIDAY 14
Glasgow
I James Barrowland. Gallowgate. 552 4601. 7.30pm. SOLD OUT. They‘re like a pair ofcomfy old slippers. those James lads. They don‘t ever seem to fall out of favour with the public. yet they hardly make a splash when they return with new material. unlike those even older codgers U2. ‘She‘s A Star' contains the usual rolling. epic guitars. great vocal performance from Tim Booth and nothing that you wouldn't expect from James.
