Frank Turner features as the subject of our Last Word interview in our latest issue, Q336 out now. Grab the magazine in print or on digital for the full article, but to whet your appetite here are a few bonus ‘lasts’ from the singer-songwriter we couldn’t quite squeeze in…
When was the last time you got into a fight?
Fighting’s not really my thing not least because I’m really, really bad at it. I have a tendency to lose. But the last time would’ve been at a family party – my family is quite, erm, boisterous and volatile. I once had a bit of a skuffle with a cousin but that was a long time ago.
When did you last accidentally eat meat?
Oh, I eat meat regularly. I was vegetarian for a while when I was younger but I started eating meat again in 2008 when I was on tour with Chuck Ragan, a Deep South manly sort of guy who thought I was faintly ridiculous not eating meat. I was quite hammered and I ate some Wendy’s chicken nuggets and that was the first meat I’d eaten in like a decade. I probably could’ve chosen a more classy first-dish-back.
When was the last time you cried?
The honest answer is a couple of days ago because I’m in the middle of some extremely trying family problems which I’m not going to go into. That’s not very punk I suppose, is it?
