And I would assume it would be a good idea to get to SECC at least an hour before showtime in order to claim a spot at the very front of the stage! That is, assuming that security is as lax as it has been everywhere else!
So which hotel are you staying at? I'll be at Menzie's- over by the M8 motorway and near the banks of the River Clyde... |
I'd advise a little more than an hour if you can manage it. I'm staying at a hostel in the city centre. I think I know the hotel you're at and if I'm right then it's not too far from the venue.
Here is a myspace link for mono, a vegan restaurant in Glasgow city centre. It's meant to be very good, or so Ive heard anyway.

There's also a place called Stereo on Renfield Lane, which is just off Renfield Street in the city centre too.
If you are eating somewhere in the centre then transport to the venue will be no problem. Taxi or train from Central Station.
By the way...
You can get vegan Haggis, it's just made with meal and spices instead of meat. As for the sheeps stomach part, it's actually quite rare to get one wrapped in that these days!
