I'm Italian and I've recently discovered Billy Bragg. He's very good, I fell in love madly at the first listen. Why the fuck I've never heard him before? In Italy, of all the beautiful english music , you only get the crap out of it !
I had the honor to hear him playing a concert in Germany. In an industrial site. He was fascinated by former miners telling him about their lives after the concert
25 people need to get a life. Found Billy just after i joined the army mid 80s, listened to Talking to the tax man about poetry every time i caught the train home from Darlington to Newport with my carry out of export red.
He´s older now, but he´s the same! Billy Bragg changed my life! He has heart in the right place! I was on 2 concerts in the early 90s, one with the Red-Stars and one solo! Both were outstanding! Thanks for the recording of this concert in a bycicle store!
Billy Bragg was out din Australia not so many months ago, heard him on The Australian Broad Casing Network. Reminded me of the good Old man's body of work. I really like the stories/songs he writes and performs.
BILLY BRAGG keeping Music - real, true & brilliant as ever [ even in a bicyle shop ]. Thank you Billy Bragg for hanging out in our time & congratulations on your IVOR NOVELLO Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music. True! ❤️🎶
Billy was right. Even though this concert was from 2013, it's almost as though it was written for 2021. The more things change, the more things stay the same.
i'll finish off here by saying that billy bragg was-like many of us-an idealist in his youth, and no doubt also made errors in judgement. for what it's worth, bragg is now regarded as a bit of an elder statesman on british politics,and is regularly asked to speak on serious tv and radio programmes where his views-perhaps not quite the same as in his youth-are regarded as being valid and worthy.
You can find more songs by Billy on my YT channel. Check it out. By the way, I think Billy should tour with a band a lot more often. Violin and trumpet harmonize wonderfully with his voice.
I don't believe anyone would ever claim the DDR was in any way a Utopia but at least the people had the right to free healthcare a paid job with annual leave free education access to housing I believe the people of the United States will be waiting a long time before they achieve these basic human rights.

Harold-Sweat-Head typical Tory. got over the death of that pedophile harbouring tyrant that tried (and failed) to destroy the working man? no? didn't think so. That's why you're here, hating on Billy Bragg.
You've just embarrassed yourself. I'd rather suck the fluids from a tramp's jock strap than vote Tory. Looking at your photo I doubt you're old enough to vote anyway.
Harold-Sweat-Head You've just embarrassed yourself, I'm 21. looking at your lack of photo you're a 55 year old man, that the modern World has past by? stop trying to Troll people and go try get laid or something
I hope the irony of a multi-millionaire (net worth = $5 million) who owns and lives in (just some of the time) a massive cliff top house in Dorset singing 'I Ain't Got No Home' isn't lost on viewers.
A national treasure, no matter what country you're from.
Fucking good tunes😂
I love him

Amico mio, con tante porcherie anglofoni che qui fanno fortuna, hai detto forse una delle poche che merita interesse ahah
what was wrong with Amy?
Amy Winehouse was an incredible singer.
I had the honor to hear him playing a concert in Germany. In an industrial site.
He was fascinated by former miners telling him about their lives after the concert
England's voice that made us all try to forget to cement of our souls and try to feel
Awe man, finally! I've been waiting for the full performance.
Billy Bragg is a fucking legend.
love billy Bragg you are the man. wish my generation cared half as much as you do you are a inspiration
25 people need to get a life. Found Billy just after i joined the army mid 80s, listened to Talking to the tax man about poetry every time i caught the train home from Darlington to Newport with my carry out of export red.
Was Ireland at that time,god bless bragg
Catterick as well? Signals?

I can't believe that "Greeting to the New Brunette" is 30 years old now. I guess was all got old. The song was such revelation at 20 years old.
I saw Billy Bragg live in the late 90s. It was one of the highlights of my life. I'd love to see him again.
Love this mans voice, lyrics and musicianship... A true blue bard
This is my favorite Billy Bragg performance to date. Simply perfect.
Great performance from a genuine master and bona fide European treasure
Thank you so much for sharing this great concert ... I like it almost much more, than more than 8 years ago. As I have found iht here ...
Billy Bragg was out din Australia not so many months ago, heard him on The Australian Broad Casing Network. Reminded me of the good Old man's body of work. I really like the stories/songs he writes and performs.
Just a truly beautiful human being, his heart is in the right place and solid ideas too for the way forward. Love is the answer. Great musician too
Billy Bragg was, is and always will be GREAT!!!
Wonderfully filmed. Thanks for letting us see this.

Love
Billy Bragg is kind of like a genius.
Saw him too many times at glasto, he was so good.
The girl stage right in the grey in tears during Greeting to The New Brunette
Pure fucking love!
Thirty years ago... this guy saved me from teenage misery. Joe Strummer saved him. I wonder who saved Joe Strummer?
woody did

the best
Billy Bragg only gets better with age.
Don't yall wanna be kissed as passionate as he sings "The new Brunette"?

Accused of selling out in the UK by now living in Dorset with the tories he professes to hate, but to me he's still a class act 👍
I love his Levi Stubb Tears
This my default when I'm feeling down.
Jeee !!!
Talent show coming up at work, SOOOOOOO many songs too choose from????? Any suggestions out there?
Ivan Loaces great leap forwards

I don't believe anyone would ever claim the DDR was in any way a Utopia but at least the people had the right to
free healthcare
a paid job with annual leave
free education
access to housing
I believe the people of the United States will be waiting a long time before they achieve these basic human rights.

I love the old time religion...
Says like it is, what a bloke.
And Trust, Everywhere and Moving the goalposts..???? Why Billy..
incredible song writer is our Billy. Not so sure about his comedic ambitions though?
How's the mansion in Dorset, Billy?
How's being a bell-end, Harold?
The only bell ends are champagne socialists like Bragg and sycophants like you who kiss his arse.

ok.
Pub signer at best!

Billy is starting to look like Pete Seeger . . .
I . m not looking for New England , I.m just looking for a really valuable house
ok
Rebel without a cause; nice vibe though!
Hearing him saying world of Warcraft is funny
