Hawkwind super fan swipes band's parking ticket as gig souvenir

Hawkwind super fan swipes band's parking ticket as gig souvenirFans in Glasgow are renowned for victorious gig tales, including one besotted Little Monster who was invited on stage at a Lady Gaga concert.
But this is possibly the most unusual gig memento we've seen to date.
Long-time Hawkwind diehard Dougie Kell from West Lothian plans to part with £30 to pay the band's parking ticket after an O2 ABC gig on March 4.
The 50-year-old mechanic discovered the ticket on the tour bus while chatting to the band on Sauchiehall Street after the show.
Dougie said: "We all found it funny. We were getting pictures with the band beside the bus where some over-zealous parking officer had slapped a ticket on it.
"I said to the band I'd pay the ticket and they're happy for me to do that."

A lifelong Hawkwind fan, Dougie was glad to pay the £30 fine for his rock idols who always make time for a meet and greet after gigs.
