Frank Turner

[Mardy]

So, Frank Turner has cancelled his T in the Park and the trees festival performances so he can go and support the Offspring on their US.

I'm now wondering if he'll do Glastonbury. He's in Germany on the 20th, and his first date in the states is the 30th, so he's got space in his calendar, but I'm thinking he might need to be in America a couple of days early. Could go either way I reckon.

Really hope he plays though, that last album has really crept up on me, and is now one of my current favourite listens.

[darrenbha]

disappointing news, still possible but really thought he'd be a dead cert.

[hypnotiseme]

To be honest he will get more coverage and recognition supporting the Offspring and it will be great for him to expose himself to the U.S. However, i would like to see him at Glasto!

eurgh, I hate it when performers do this. he was one of two thousand trees main acts and it will be probably be harder for them to sell tickets now.

[jollynolly]

Frank will be there

would have thought the fact that he's not starting the tour with the offspring 'til the 30th would put him in the running for glasto slot(s) this year.

[remote]

I hope he does play at Glastonbury. I really like his album.

[darrenbha]

Maybe he'd be a good shout to open the pyramid. He could do that plus a slot later in the day somewhere

[MartinGooding]

it would be the logical thing for him to do, but i hope he gets a slot sumwhere at glasto, i missed him last year and his most recent album is brilliant

[Curtains1]

Tis good for the man, i like the fact that he is quite in touch with his fans and always writing on his blog to them and keeping everyone updated, good on the man hes going to hit the big time soon i recon, as long as he keeps that level head and communicating to fans its all good.

[pedmills]

Is he still playing at my hall of residence's summer ball?

[Andeeroo]

It's a definite no.

From the man himself, Linky.

Post 8.

Boo Glastonbury, Boooo!

[dacbo]

booo!

[Mardy]

and a Boo! from me too.

but the wording;

'Glastonbury have officially said no to me'

what a strange decision from the bookers.

[jollynolly]

Thats just rude! How dare they

[vicky=)]

THATS RIDICULOUS

[ampersand]

yup, poor show the bookers! would have been great

[Mardy]

I reckon if the leftfield had been there, he'd have played a set

[vicky=)]

I am hoping this screams, our line up is good enough already, i hold out hope
