00:00Something about those Definitely Maybe shows, I was like, it's Mornin' Gory anniversary next year.
00:05If ever they were going to do it, surely it would make sense to be next year, and then lo and behold it is.
00:11This is King Tutson upstairs is the Wawa Hut, that's what was in the original press release.
00:15And yeah, like three years into its existence, there was a three-band bill one night, boyfriend, sister lovers, 18-wheeler.
00:25That particular night, a band had rocked up from Manchester in a van that they'd chipped in their last money, apparently, to get that van to come up.
00:34Because they'd heard that sister lovers who they shared a rehearsal space with in Manchester were playing here.
00:39They were like, well, we want to play King Tut's in Glasgow, we're going to play King Tut's.
00:43So they come up and then the equivalent of me repping the show goes to the back door and there's a band in a van called Oasis.
00:53Oasis and they're asking to play and then I think a phone call was made to the higher hedions and they were said that if they can figure it out between themselves, then they can play.
01:04So they ended up playing, I think, a 20-minute set here.
01:07But McGee was here, importantly, and he'd come to noise up his ex-girlfriend who was in one of the bands just to be a nuisance and be at the gig.
01:16So then he saw Oasis and said, he's got a record deal and Noel was like, no, and he went, do you want one?
01:22And he was like, yeah, all right.
01:23And then I think Noel then went and did some reconnaissance on McGee just to find out who Creation were, who the label were, who he was as a person.
01:32Got a lot of good feedback, you know, the fact that he'd put out Primal Scream, Jesus and Mary Chain, Teenage Fan Club, many others.
01:39They've never, ever played here as a band since then.
01:43The only real things that have happened are they have both been here for the 20th anniversary birthday party and they were given the original King Tutts wooden sign from out front.
01:57And they have it in the lockup because Brian Cannon, when he was taking pictures for the 30th anniversary, definitely, maybe, Noel took him to the lockup and he said, oh, here's the King Tutts sign.
02:09And he was like, I'd really like that included.
02:11It was Noel that pushed for that to be included on the sleeve.
02:14And then obviously Liam came to shoot a video here, which I was the rep for that day.
02:19So he was supposed to come in the back door and then a few minutes before he was due to arrive, we got word on our radios.
02:26I mean, it was like loads of security and just it was all hands on deck.
02:29And there was obviously a film crew, Shane Meadows was film crew and all that.
02:33And the next thing we got, he's coming in the front door.
02:35And then I like run down the stairs just as Liam's like walking up those stairs and walking into the venue.
02:41So I see him just walking in like that, looking around and then he walks into the room and he's just standing, looking at the stage.
02:50And it was, and I was from a distance just seeing this happen.
02:53And it was a complete out of body experience for me because I was like, I can't believe Liam Gallagher's in Tutts.
02:59Like of all the places he could have shot a video, he chose Tutts because it meant something to him.
