Info
Europe bring The Final Countdown 40th Anniversary Tour to SEC Armadillo, Glasgow, on 30 September 2026. Led by singer Joey Tempest and guitarist John Norum, the Swedish band fuses strong vocals, melodic keyboards and sharp guitar work. The set revisits The Final Countdown, Carrie and Rock the Night, and draws from their 2000s return, moving between 80s melodic hard rock and a more rugged, blues-leaning sound.
From Glasgow, Gun add their blend of melodic hard rock and pop-leaning hooks. Founded in 1987 by guitarist Giuliano Gizzi and now fronted by Dante Gizzi, the group spans early releases Taking On The World, Gallus and Swagger through to The Calton Songs and Hombres (2024), with their version of Word Up! often part of the show.
Montreal’s The Damn Truth open with 70s-influenced blues and hard rock shaded by psychedelic touches. Lee-La Baum, Tom Shemer, PY Letellier and Dave Traina shape songs from Dear in the Headlights, Devilish Folk and Now or Nowhere into a live format that alternates slow-burn ballads and heavier riff-driven numbers.
