    Check out 24 Frames by Jason Isbell. I've posted it before in the Exceelent Music thread.

      That's pretty surprising that that many Isbell fans don't know Turner. They are both pretty huge. That is a great show.

        This Frank Turner? More known here for self identifying as a Thatcherite a few years ago. Didn't help his reputation among artistic circles.

          Frank Turner and Jason Isbell are huge? You mean they weigh over 300 lbs?

              A pleasant little ditty. I liked it.

                Yep...his wiki page offers this tidbit on his political leanings.

                "Turner describes himself as a "classical liberal" in the original sense of the word and his views align with many modern libertarians. He has a tattoo of ama-gi, Sumerian cuneiform for "freedom", on his left forearm. Turner has experienced death threats following a news article from the Guardian newspaper that drew attention to his political outlook. In a subsequent Guardian interview, Turner clarified his views, "The non-Marxist British left is a fantastic tradition: it's all about non-conformism and voluntarism. The advances of the unions are great advances in human society."

                • Saw Arcade Fire and they did not disappoint. The venue was at Mandalay Bay so security was pretty thick.

                  Also saw The Beatles Love show. Highly recommended for fans of their music.

                    I'm holding out for The Beatles Hate show ... Helter Skelter, Revolution #9 ... you know, the classics
                    It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.
