Green's Playhouse was owned by the same family who had Vinegarhill Showground, and they used to do all the printing of tickets, bill posters, programmes etc. at Vinegarhill.
Many of the workers during the building of Green's Playouse, the Apollo as we later knew it. were showpeople from Vinegarhill.

Never knew it as Greens Playhouse but spent many happy times at concerts in the Apollo. My first ever concert was Elton John in 1973 and the last was Culture Club in 1984(?) between them I saw many different bands from glam rock to punk rock and even the film "Slade in Flames" there Also used to go to the "dancing" which I think was called Satellite City when I was going through a "poser" period Think I'll go and listen to some 70s music now !!

I remember the dancing as 'The Clouds' where Tiger Tim was the resident DJ and a group called Salvation who had a wee guy called Midge Ure as a guitarist were the regular spot at the weekend . They later changed their name to Slik and had a few hits before the wee man formed his own band called Ultravox and the rest they say is history.

I'd forgotten about Slik, I liked them "For ever and ever" and "Requiem" Wonder if Midge Ure ever sings them about the house ;D

Florida Georgia Line is my favourite contry band. Headliners Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley are those guys that can make anyone sing along with them. That's why I like to attend their shows. And - that's surprisingly beatiful - in 2019 they have CAN'T SAY IT AIN'T COUNTRY TOUR which covers all the USA cities and towns.
