This guy manages to keep the punk aesthetic on an acoustic.

  1. Great Song-but I'm not sure of his "Punk" credentials-
    "Frank Turner was born in Muharraq, Bahrain, and grew up in Meonstoke, just outside Winchester, England. Turner attended Eton where he was educated alongside Prince William. His father Roger Turner, is the son of Sir Mark Turner, formerly chairman of high street retailer BHS, and had himself also attended Eton before becoming a City investment banker, while his mother, Jane, the daughter of a bishop, is a primary school headmistress."
    not that i want to mount an "ad Hominem" attack on the young fella!

  3. Absolutely not!-except of course if you're Joe Strummer (whooops)-(I died in the Punk Wars you know-guts hanging out on the barbed wire down the Roxy being kicked up the bum by Captain Sensible's girlfriend!!)
