Placement work: International residency visit. Introduction day

Hours logged 4

First Placement work of 2025.

Today on the 14th Feb 2025, I and some others placement students in my class visited SWG3 to meet with an international street artist who will be on residency with Yard works. we meet at SWG3 then went on a walk around Govan and looked at a previous Yard works Mural.

This one we looked at had a passenger liner being built in the background of the photo. which I took a lot of interest in for my own work for the "Outside the Box" proposal I need to make soon.

we then went to a community centre where the SWG3 staff talked with the locals while we stood around fir a while, then went home.

REVEREND AND THE MAKERS – THE POETRY CLUB 10th JULY 2023

I was interested in the marketing for the new Reverend and the Makers album as Reverend (Jon McClure) was doing almost constant social media posts on its release. He announced an acoustic tour of tiny venues and I managed to get a ticket for The Poetry Club at SWG3. A tiny venue holding around 125.

The new album came out in between buying my ticket and the gig and I absolutely hated it. The production was strange and very different to the previous indie style and seemed to be auto tuned. Despite this, given it was an acoustic tour I decided to go along. I’m a huge fan of Jon McClure, he’s a cool guy and told funny stories in between songs and the acoustic versions of the new songs were infinitely better than the album version.  

The audience seemed to love it and as I didn’t know too many of the songs after about 40 minutes I’d had enough and left. I’m glad I went and will keep checking on future Reverend releases and hope he goes back to the indie style.

2.5 stars

You don't need to go far for great gigs as Zhou Guanyu found out on his most recent visit to SWG3. Glasgow has a famously good gig culture and crowds like no other. He remarked that whilst the chant "here we, here we, here we fucking go!" was unexpected, it was cultural differences like that making his trip to Glasgow so enjoyable.
