Frank Turner - Photosynthesis - Live at Reading 2009

[KingAlanI]

Yes, Frank is awesome, but you kinda need "bootleg ears" for this particular vid.

[paintthetwndead]

As if I didn't hate living in the States enough before, just discovered this guy and fell in fucking love. Hopefully I'll get to see him in my lifetime :(

[crazyty1029]

@paintthetwndead I went to the Social Distortion concert a couple days go and got to get up on the stage with this amazing dude and play the harmonica

[paintthetwndead]

@crazyty1029 So jelly :(

[KingAlanI]

@paintthetwndead he's opening for Dropkick Murphys for the next few weeks and has a couple small headlining shows inbetween.

[paintthetwndead]

@KingAlanI Going to see him the 15th in Boston, and I get to see the dropkicks too!

[KingAlanI]

@paintthetwndead if you hadn't already known, glad I could help. I'm going the afternoon of the 17th myself. Yeah, killer combination of opener and headliner.

[LukePearson06]

Reading crowd are the worst. Look at the front row!? Saw him at Leeds, completely different.

[wllychng21]

awesome crowd, except the people in the very front. they don't seem excited at all. WTF why would you want to be in the front if you're not fucking stoked about the artist?

[eldeano1]

@wllychng21 yeh what pricks



[liliberry8]

@wllychng21 Maybe they're in shock, I know I would be if I were so close to him. That, or passed out of excitement.

[chippyfletcher]

this guy was incredible at leeds fest 2011!! blew me away

[mercurialvoltage]

@chippyfletcher mate i was there too he was fucking brilliant, even the rain made it better! :P

[GirlInRedHairDye]

I'm seeing him in Manchester in November. I've never been so excited for something in my life.

I just hope young musicians see Frank Turner and are inspired to create soulful meaningful Music that spans the test of time. This guy is a story teller, a fantastic musician and inspiration. I cant say enough about him. I want to thank my teenage son for blasting these songs in his room. Now Im hooked and going to see him w bunch of friends in Toronto. Someone below said it perfectly "Pure Class"

[paaigecubbon]

Love that I've seen this twice in one week, Cambridge Folk Festival then Mannifest and met him. This guy is a fucking legend! X

[Taanrocks]

This is great. Can't wait to see him on the main stage this year!

[emthedrummer]

@MusicFiend2310 I love the way all the bands I love are connected... Frank, Gaslight, Against Me!, King Blues. They just need to get Slaves to Gravity involved... :D

Green Day got it perfect having Frank as a support act but made a bad decision putting Joan Jett above him in the listings

[bez2634]

I saw him at Leeds this year. Hadn't heard him before then, but I'm so glad I did see him, absolutely quality

[Astaroth267]

i was really hoping to see a circle pit then, that would have been awesome/hilarious

[foorock6969]

There was 2 at Leeds! I was in one in fancy dress haha. frank's a legend!!

[northwindlowlander]

There was a sort of hoedownpit at Reading in 2008, wasn't enough space for one down the front last year though

[thepunkfish109]

@Astaroth267 Got close man. Soon, I suspect. The world will switch it's rotation just to facilitate Frank's pit. Never fear :)

[mflemin1]

[XBleedingxXxMascaraX]

He is amaaaazing, his new album is very different though to his previous.
