A Glasgow-based singer had a night to remember on Friday after running into Post Malone at one of his gigs.

Gregor Hunter Coleman was performing at Wunderbar in Glasgow when the "White Iverson" rapper came in following his own performance at the Hydro.

The pair spent the evening singing and chatting before Malone gifted Coleman money towards a house deposit.

"Never thought whilst heading out the door with my guitar on Friday night for my gig at @wunderbarglasgow that I'd meet @postmalone and have such a life changing experience," wrote Coleman on Instagram alongside a photo of him with the Grammy nominee.

"The hours spent with this gent chatting and jamming was life changing in itself, not to mention what followed," he added.

Speaking to BBC Scotland, Coleman described his evening with Malone in more detail.

The singer, a former contestant on the talent show "The X Factor," said he'd just finished his regular city center gig when someone told him Malone was in the building.

Coleman said Malone then invited him over and told him he'd "smashed it."

"He said, 'Do you want a drink?' I was like, 'Listen, I'm saving for a house so I'm not drinking just now.' Which was daft. My mates were like, 'Why did you turn down a drink from Post Malone?'" Coleman told the BBC.

Coleman said Malone respected his decision and instead invited him to sing at his concert's official after-party.

"He started saying, 'How much will you charge?' I said nothing... it's Post Malone, this is the chance of a lifetime," Coleman recalled. "He got talking to me and he offered to help me out with my house deposit."

Malone also gave his number to the Glaswegian singer, offering to listen to some of his work.

"I need to get something happening with it rather than just being, like, I met Post Malone and back to the pub," said Coleman. "Hopefully he's still interested and he still wants to hear them and he likes them. If not then it's back to the drawing board."

Luckily for Coleman, Scotland has no problems with letting Malone into its bars. Had they been in Australia, things could have turned out very differently.

Earlier this year, Malone revealed that he was turned away from the bar in Perth because of his tattoos.

"They turned me away for my tattoos," the musician told The West Australian. "I've never really experienced anything like that."

QT Hotels, the owners of the bar, issued an apology shortly after the incident.

"We aim to welcome everyone and celebrate the uniqueness of each individual," said the chain in a statement. "QT has been recognized for this for many years. However, on Saturday night, our third-party security did not exercise the appropriate discretion and we take full responsibility for this. We sincerely apologize to the individuals affected."
