...for one night only. Shame they ain't doing a few more gigs, but one night at T in the Park is a pretty cool way to say thanks and bow out.

Shame they are only playing at T in the park, would loved to have seen them, all tickets sold for T in the park. Last saw them at the Stuart Adamson Appreciation gig at the Barrowlands, they were really good then and were best performance on the bill, even though Hugh played as well.

Hope they play another gig, but does not look likely.

Would LOVE to see the Skids albeit with Bruce On guitar.

One of the finest bands ever IMO.

First thoughts

How could you have the Skids without Stuart?

But having Bruce on guitar would work for me

Hope this sparks them into doing a few more dates, I would be there!

The facts are on the T In THe Park website and also The Skids website - unless they're all in on it and it's a April 1,2,3rd Fool.

Well I hope not!

Although I did think Jobbo was a bit 'daytime TV' nowadays! :grin:
