SINGER and rapper Example showed his appreciation for his Glasgow fans by filming the huge queue outside his gig last night.
The London-born star, whose real name is Elliot John Gleave, told his Instagram followers that an unnamed station did not want to play his singles due to concerns about the age demographic his music attracts.
He now plans to show radio bosses exactly what his demographic looks like by taking video footage of the huge crowds outside his shows.
He said: "Last week we were told that my new single's great but not right for the age demographic of a certain radio station.
"They said the same thing about my last single and the single before that.
"So what I'm gonna do every night is take a video of the queue outside the gigs.
"They probably still won't play my song but I'll continue having sold out shows."

One of Example's team then filmed four reels' worth of Instagram videos showing the young fans waiting in a long queue outside the 02 Academy.
They could be heard cheering and screaming as they eagerly waited in the cold.
The Kickstarts singer also showed his love for Scottish fans in an Instagram post, saying: "Trying not to get too excited. Scotland always has my heart when it comes to the live shows."
