Frank Turner Setlist
|
English punk and folk singer-songwriter Frank Turner headlined the Pantages Theatre in Minneapolis on October 18th in support of his eight album, No Man’s Land (Xtra Mile Recordings/Polydor Records).
Kayleigh Goldsworthy opened the show. Goldsworthy is pretty fun and often talked about her father (and tour roommate). The two standout songs on her set were the two covers: “Joey” by Concrete Blonde and “The Concept” by Teenage Fanclub. Both were faithfully played, and, particularly with “Joey”, had a lot of heart.
Goldsworthy talked about how she decided to cover the Concrete Blonde song and her parents gave her some slack because, she didn’t listen to the band when she was growing up. While she probably discovered the band on her own, she does admit that her parents’ musical tastes (who sounded like they were also in a band) had a lot of influences on her.
Frank Turner closed out the show. Turner’s set was divided into two sections, a solo set with just Turner on acoustic guitar and a full electric band (billed as The Sleeping Souls) for the second half of the show.
The last time we saw Turner was in Oct 2015 and wrote, “The second Frank Turner got on stage the sold out crowd seemed to fade away and it felt like it was Frank singing just to me. It seemed like every song he sang was written for me. Like his song Tattoos where he talks about blowing your paycheck on tattoos that you will probably later regret but that are part of you. Or the song Recovery which is about exactly that, the road to recovery of whatever problems you have. Turner, later on the encore, did a cover of The Hold Steady's Your Little Hoodrat Friend after confessing his love for the music that comes out of the Twin Cities (although The Hold Steady isn't necessarily a "local band", they still have roots here). He even admitted to having some lyrics from this song tattooed on his back.”
With this current 2019 tour for his latest release of No Man’s Land (Xtra Mile Recordings/Polydor Records), Turner played a few tracks from the new album. He had a lot of stories for each of his songs, explaining the concept and true stories for each of the songs. If you didn’t know, each song is about an incredible woman and her story.
