Sam Fender is said to be lining up some cameos from a host of local legends, as he takes to the stage at St James' Park this weekend, for his hotly anticipated gigs at Newcastle United's famous ground.
And, if rumours are to be believed, North Shields star Sam won't be the only icon who'll be stepping into the spotlight at the gigs on Friday and Saturday.
When Sam announced last year he was playing St James', with a brilliant video reveal which saw him on the pitch, his many fans went crazy; with a near ticket meltdown when they went on sale a week later. A massive Newcastle fan, Sam has been a guest at matches on numerous occasions and was over the moon, when legendary number 9, Alan Shearer, turned up at King Street Social in North Shields to hand him a number 1 trophy, on the day that his debut album Hypersonic Missiles shot straight to the top of the charts.
