Idlewild @ Barrowlands

Don't be fooled: Idlewild might look older and wiser - and in the case of the bassist, be a totally different person - but inside lurk the same punky kids behind howling mini-album Captain a decade ago. Tearing around the stage, with proper guitar-god shapes from Rod Jones, the band are on ecstatic form. Recently released best of, Scottish Fiction, is peppered with copious treasured album tracks as well as the singles, and tonight's set is no different. Yes, American English and When I Argue I See Shapes are there, but we're also treated to rare live outings of Quiet Crown and a stunning rendition of Let Me Sleep (Next To The Mirror). Just as moans about the lack of anything pre-1998 begin to surface they unleash their two cherished pre-Captain singles, Chandelier and Queen of the Troubled Teens, and circle pits ensue. And as Edwin Morgan's voice rings out over the final chords of In Remote Part, it seems there's not a single person here who isn't 100% in love with Idlewild. Here's to the next ten years.
