The Script also shared their own video of their surprise concert on Instagram, writing: “Glasgow, you sang your heart out in the stadium so we decided to continue the party in the pub. Loved hearing everyone sing Man In The Arena. #thescriptfamily #maninthearena”
Lead singer Danny O’Donoghue, 45, played guitar as he belted out some of the band’s most famous tracks at the Glasgow pub, including Hall of Fame, For the First Time and The Man Who Can’t Be Moved.
The packed pub can be heard enthusiastically returning every word to him.
