“I’m delighted it has come to pass this year and I am even more delighted that Simple Minds will have the honour of being involved in what will inevitably be the highlight of our touring activities this summer.”
He’s also pleased to see such a strong line-up of Scottish talent.
“Scotland had produced an abundance of remarkable music over the decades and we look forward to playing alongside many of the artists who have contributed to that at this event,” he said.
As to what the audience can expect from the Glasgow band’s set at Linlithgow Palace?
“Well, of course, we will play all the big hits, those that are received ecstatically night after night as we continue to tour the world.

“Simple Minds try to never play the exact same set twice – we always look to add the odd surprise.
“Playing in Scotland is always amongst the highlights of any tour.”
