No.

Glasvegas were brilliant in Brum last night, they would make a brilliant support, in Glasgow especially

as support act, I'd love to see The Levellers, but they're on tour the same time. They never get over to the States and I have to buy their CD's from amazon.uk, with an exchange rate of almost 2 to 1!

My money is on the mighty Frank Turner. A couple of stellar albums under his belt and on http://www.frank-turner.com/ he says he's due to announce a support tour in December soon. That would be very ace. I'd also love to see Misty's Big Adventure or Simian Mobile Disco supporting but as I'm neither a band member or promoter I rightfully have no say in the matter. Thank the lord.

The Men They Couldn't Hang would be my choice

The Dropkicks or Flogging Molly would be nice! I know the latter is not probable....

Bill Bragg at Manchester again would go down a treat too!

I'd prefer to see something a little different from the Pogues too. I enjoyed the Holloways a lot last year but I was a fan anyway, not sure how well they went down with everyone else. I wouldn;t say no to Glasvegas as they're always good live in my experience but I'm seeing them next week anyway so I won't be fussed if its not them.
Personally I'd like to see Yeti (who have a song named after Shane) or Black Lips
