Steve Rothery concert at
Oran Mor in Glasgow, UK
Wed, 05 Nov 2014

This intimate venue was the perfect setting for a showcase of musical genius. Steve Rothery (Marillion founder member and lead guitarist) has put together a collective of fine musicians for his first solo outing, the mesmerising Ghosts of Pripyat. The first half of the show was the album in full with Dave Foster on second guitar duelling solos with the maestro. Rarely can Glasgow have experienced two guitarists of this quality gracing a stage together.
The second half of the show featured Glasgow's own Martin Jacubski of Fish era Marillion tribute band Stillmarillion on lead vocals. Martin did Glasgow and Marillion proud with old favourites like Fugazi and Incubus dusted down and lifted to the rafters with the Glasgow audience singing along with the delight of seeing these songs played live once more.
If you get the chance to get along to the remaining gigs of the UK tour you won't be disappointed.
