I've seen, amongst others, Teenage Fanclub, The Smiths, Simple Minds and My Bloody Valentine at Barrowland. Tremendous venue. The floor slopes down from the back to the stage, only slightly, but it adds something.
King Tut's amongst others, The Bluetones, Therapy?, and Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy.
I've been to neither venue nearly enough times.

I've been to Barrowlands maybe about 20 times, (Arcade Fire, Nick Cave, Wilco, Mercury Rev, LCD Sounsystem) and King Tut's A LOT more times than that (Felice Bros, Rev & the Makers, Lightspeed Champion, Jonathan Richman, Benjamin Booker, Alabama Shakes) both great venues but if pressed I'd have to say I prefer King Tut's. I like smaller venues ... of which there are no shortage in Glasgow and Edinburgh. Can't flippin' wait to get back to it all !

Dvorak, at least the sticky beer floor at the Barrowlands helps a bit with not sliding down the slope 😀

Just booked Glass animals for May. Not convinced it will go ahead but it's all the teenager wanted for his birthday. Fingers crossed.

Had an email from O2 Academy Kentish Town - Einsturzende Neubaten moved from 30 Sept 2020 to 9 Sept 2021. Quite impressive: a whole year. Still awaiting a new date on Saint Motel, already moved once from April to Sept.
