George Craig criticises Scouting For Girls

One Night Only frontman George Craig has blamed Scottish festival bosses for choosing Scouting For Girls as headliners.

The singer claimed that his band would have been a far better choice to top the measure at the Belladrum Tartan Heart festival, which takes place in Inverness this weekend.

Craig, whose band is known for their tracks 'Just For Tonight' and 'It's About Time', claimed that he cannot recount the difference between Scouting For Girls' hit singles.

"It's a good festival, merely we should be headlining over Scouting For Girls, who I noticed ar playing," Craig told the Daily Record. "It would be good for us to top the eyeshade. Maybe Scotland has thousands more citizenry who love Scouting For Girls only we ar a much better band.

"If the people in Scotland think we are one of their favourite bands from England, I'm non worried around what Scouting For Girls think."

Commenting on the band's tracks 'Elvis Ain't Dead', 'She's So Lovely' and 'Heartbeat', he added: "We should be headlining because Scouting For Girls write good bug out songs and do truly well. But they simply write hits and it sounds like they are writing the same birdcall over and over. They're a good band and nice guys, but it's not my thing."
