Sam Fender returned to TRNSMT to deliver a spectacular set fresh from his Glastonbury debut - and even had the crowd singing f**k the Tories.
The star warmed up the stage last year before headliners The Courteeners.
And he returned to carry out the same tradition for Paisley superstar Paolo Nutini.
Surely it’s time for the Geordie rocker to take that headlining spot?
Running on stage flying a saltire, he certainly proved his TRNSMT worth kicking things off with Will We Talk before launching into Getting Started.
He said: “Alright Glasgow, how we doing?”
And despite the drizzly conditions, the crowd was doing fine lapping every second of Fender’s Springteen-esque set.
He encourage the audience to participate in a responsible mosh pit while performing even stopping at one point to help fans who needed medical assistance.
And things turned a little political when he hummed a tune to which the crowd replied, 'f**k the tories'.
Nodding in appreciation he beamed: “What a tune”
Get You Down, Spit of You and Saturday were instant crowd-pleasers.
While Seventeen Going Under and Hypersonic Missles rounded off his fourth TRNSMT performance.
See you next year Sam.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
