One Direction Glasgow: Liam Payne promises if band return first gig back will be at The Garage

We all know how much One Direction had a soft spot for Glasgow...

Harry Styles showed his love for the city runs deeper than you could imagine after rocking a hilarious 'Mitchell Library carpet' look to the Brit Awards back in May. At least we assume that was his inspiration!

While Glaswegian fans of the boy band will no doubt remember that their very first ever performances outside of X Factor were at none other than Campus and The Garage on Sauchiehall Street way back in December of 2010.

The shows, in front of screaming fans 'holding Blackberries aloft', were a far cry from Harry Styles and the gang's current mega-rich lifestyles, private jets and magazine covers - one funded by their more than 50 million record sales worldwide.

However Liam Payne has now 'promised' that if the band do get back together in the future then they will swap the huge arenas and stadiums to turn back the clock - to play their very first gig back as a group right here in Glasgow...at The Garage.

The singer made the admission to Clyde 1 in an interview with presenter Garry Spence.

Spence asked Payne: "Your first gig with the boys [One Direction] was in Scotland. right?", to which Liam replied, "It was, at The Garage, yes. You know I think it would be great at some point if we did come back together but you know, who knows".

Spence followed that up with: "When you do, it's absolutely expected that your first gig as One Direction coming back together will be at The Garage in Glasgow, correct?" And the singer responded with: "Oh I mean absolutely, absolutely."

Better start queueing up now Glasgow Directioners!
