I'm putting money on Jim Lockey! Would love Ben Marwood too. Won't rule out The Vaccines either. A friend of mine in Trowbridge reckons Crazy Arm and wishes for Gaslight Anthem, but I'm not so sure about the latter...

Tickets go on sale Friday, "Frank Turners Friday The 13th" all day festival gig. Sounds great!

I wouldn't rule it out seeing as they've just signed to a major.......

I think that is what will rule them out!

Frank toured as Support to them in 2009, I doubt he has risen so much that he would headline over them? What do you think? Given that they have signed a major, and Frank's still on an indie... But then Frank does have home advantage

Could happen, Franks v popular with "the kids" at the mo and is playing a huge venue.
Would be a good oportunity for the label to start using Galight as I can see them doing to market to "demographics" and start "shifting units" as thats the way theyre heading : (

But seriously I can see the label pushing to extend their audience and a gig like this would be perfect for that.

Can't help but feel it would be a cop out if every band that has played with Frank in the past 3 years popped up for a support slot...!

I thought Gaslight Anthem were shifting units already hence the step up? Maybe I over estimated them, I thought they were OOOOGE!
