Mogwai to save Glasgow's Sighthill Stone Circle

The city council of Glasgow is willing to destroy a monument called Sighthill Stone Circle - a stone circle à la Stonehenge - built in 1979 (it was the first astronomically-aligned stone circle to be built in 3,500 years, at the time).
Mogwai's Stuart Braithwaite father, at the time, worked as the technical supervisor on the project which, despite receiving funding from the government’s Jobs Creation Scheme and the help of Royal Navy, was stopped short of completion by the Thatcher government a year later.

Unfortunately the circle is in an area earmarked for a £250 million redevelopment, which may be brought forward if the city’s bid to host the 2018 Youth Olympic Games is successful - meaning that the stones would be removed. So Mogwai's Stuart Braithwaite will be co-hosting a concert to raise awareness of Sighthill Stone Circle.
The gig will take place on July 27 at the city’s Platform venue and it features Braithwaite, Aidan Moffat, Eugene Kelly, Emma Pollock, RM Hubbert, Remember Remember and special guests The Twilight Sad.
