Frank Turner live videos.
| December 31, 2009 | Filled under music and concerts |
Musically speaking, 2009 stood out for me personally because of two bands that I saw in February: The Gaslight Anthem & Frank Turner. In fact, Frank Turner was the support for TGA so I saw them both on the same evening. Both bands really stuck with me the whole year and can be counted to my most favourites now. I even made a detour during my Interrail trip to see The Gaslight Anthem (along with The Dropkick Murphys) play a big Belgian music festival.
And Frank Turner was back in Austria in December for two shows as a headliner in Vienna and Graz and I managed to attend both shows. That was totally worth it, because after the show in Vienna, most of Frank’s band got sick so the Graz concert was a totally different show altogether as it was acoustic (Guitar & Keyboard). As much as I feel sorry for the folks getting sick, there was something good that came out of it :D
See, Frank even sold the merchandise himself :D As I had a Samsung IT100 with me that I borrowed from a friend I managed to make some pretty decent videos of both concerts (HD, Stereo-mic), judge for yourself to see the difference in these shows. Both shows were absolutely awesome. Also, I caught a proposal “on tape” during the Vienna show as well.
Check out both playlists on youtube:
And here’s a short best of, starting with a cover version of an ABBA classic :D
Frank Turner – PPC, Graz – Dancing Queen
Frank Turner – Arena, Vienna – Photosynthesis & probably a Proposal ;) & Finish with Jaakko & Jay
Frank Turner – Arena, Vienna – The Road
The support band for Frank Turner was by the way also pretty cool and I just had to buy their CD: Jaakko & Jay. Two guys and a very limited drumset but the drummer kicks some serious ass. He was also sick during the Graz show unfortunately. There are two videos of them in the Arena Playlist.
