'My mum and my stepdad are up in Montrose, and they forced me to come down and get all of their stuff, all of theirs,' the fan said.
'So yeah, waiting for an hour, it's very windy, there's an amber weather warning out. But that doesn't stop Oasis fans clearly,' they added.
Another fan, who spent £350, said: 'It's a lot but it's Oasis, it's kind of one-time only. We're going to get one of the T-shirts framed, so we can put it up in our living room.' STV News Fans can walk in, but the store advises pre-booking a slot on the official website. STV News
