He is very good. Espec like Photosynthesis and Worst Things Happen At Sea

[Red_Eye_Jedi]

He's a great artist.

My favourite song has to be The ballad of me and my friends. Heres a cracking cersion of it..

Would be great if Frank Turner plays. I knew Prufrock never fails to put a smile on my face

Going to see him in Leeds tomorrow. I should've first seen him at Glasto 2008 (before I knew how good he was) but accidentally walked to the Acoustic Stage instead of Avalon then later missed his Leftfield set! Was gutted when I listened to his albums a couple of months later and realised he's brilliant! New album isn't as good as the first two in my opinion though.

We're definitley going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.

Both the same song but one amazing performance and the other at a festival both superb!

I was waiting for the anual frank thread!

Lucky sod getting guestlist, I've been going through hell trying to get an extra ticket for Friday!

But yeah I'm seeing him on Friday too, cannot wait. He was brilliant when I saw him back in October, I really hope he plays Glasto this year. I wonder if he'll mention Glasto at all..

[olly!olly!olly!]

Seen him a couple of times before and seeing him in camden next week. Really good live.

Not that much of a fan of the new album but hopefully it will grow on me.

High up John Peel stage should be about right I think

With the new album being more of a full band-type affair, I wouldn't be surprised to see him on one of the main stages.

[elfimaju]

Saw him at the Roundhouse last night - incredible. He also said that he'd be back in the summer (he's off touring to Europe and the US next) because he was 'doing all the festivals' - so fingers crossed.

[disasterplan]

He was in the Hatchet after the Bristol gig on Friday and I overheard him say something about Glastonbury... not sure what he said about it but there you go.

[Phil-itfc]

if Frank Turner is asked to play he will play! he loves the whole festival situation. I hope for a couple of sets over the weekend fantastic artist been watching him in small clubs an d in stores for 2 or 3 years now.

[tinpottery]

He has a Thom Yorke look-a-like play bass for him.

[frodoisdead]

Poetry of the Deed was such a letdown. He's still great live though, although I think I'm done seeing him for a while.

This.

I got distinctly bored with him last Friday, probably because i've seen him a lot recently.

If it wasn't for Chuck Ragan i think the night may well have been wasted.

[rexclark]

He was excellent last year at leeds.

[Sparticus]

He was excellent last year at leeds.

Apparently he said at the gig in Manchester that he'd be doing the festivals this year, plus he's already been confirmed for 2000 Trees so you never know..
