Spotted this in the latest issue of
The Wire today about a new Glasgow cafe/arts venue called
The Glad Cafe:
Glasgow is getting its own version of Cafe Oto. On 17 August a new venue opens in the Southside of Glasgow for new and experimental music and art, with plans for installations and film screenings. Venue manager Joe Smillie says: "Three years ago my sister Sarah was staying in Dalston and took my mother to Cafe Oto, knowing it was the kind of place my mum would go nuts about. She did, and on arriving back in Glasgow decided that this was something the Southside was missing. She wouldn't stop talking about it and eventually roped my wife, Karina and myself in."
Don't suppose anyone else Glasgow way knows about it yet or has even visited inside? Worth considering either for potential shows or just another place to hang out. Also, this gig on October 8th looks rather tempting...

Looks cool, will most certainly be having a gander of this place. Cheers John
