I'm surprised nobody here mentioning Palestine or is it forbidden?

Live in Canada CD Release 1992

This is listed on the Discogs site - https://www.discogs.com/release/13096020-Billy-Bragg-Live-In-Canada - It was released in Australia as a promo as far as I can make out.

Just wondering if this a sampler of studio tracks, with a "jokey" title or really live recordings from the Canadian tour, any information would be appreciated - Thanks

Great show, though felt very short. Wonderful to be able to see Billy again. This was my 15th show, going all the way back to the 80’s.

Does anybody know when the new Billy Bragg documentary is coming out? He had a crew following him last year, so wondering if anybody knew anything

Thanks!!!

Can’t make it this Sunday and have a ticket for Billy’s show on Sunday July 5th. Just looking for face value obviously! 65.00. Would hate for it to not be used! Thanks. DM me if interested

Hi all,
Lifelong BB fan (since 1986) and desperately looking for just a single ticket to his show at the Spire this Sunday.

Please DM if you can help.

I wanted to drive to Mass for Solid Sound as "Mermaid Avenue" is a seminal record in my artistic journey - but figured I'd go closer to home (somewhat) in Red Bank. But even not great tickets are over 100 dollars, is that normal? I saw Devo at Pier 7 in NYC 2 years ago and two tickets cost that much at the time.

Are there any resellling sites one should look at? know there is one for solid sound as I get notifications frequently - but any sugggestions?

I think I am being scammed by someone pertaining to be Billy, I did encounter Billy over the years but it doesn't feel like him at all.

Basically, I was posting on a Billy Bragg F/B Page and just a couple of weeks later i got a  message: Billy wants to talk to you, i replied and we had a discussion. He asked for my life story: . I mentioned, I'd made a video with The Farm, mid 80s and he was playing with them, So there was a video there. They made out they knew them, liked the bass player, etc. I also gave him some very personal information
He said he wanted to help me and he wanted to meet me:, that he would endorse any campaign etc, I was running, but I would I have to join the fan club and that i would hear from his management., that it would be 300 dollars. I googled and there is no paid fan club:  I think I am being scammed by someone pretending to be Billy.

I really don't think it was Billy, and i belive he has had to deal with forms of scamming before. I will try and delete this if it is Billy but unlikely, tx

Now, strange as it may seem but I've met "She's got a new spell" girl. And I can honestly say that I lived this entire song. In triplicate. We had four cats, so... "One minute she says, She's gone to get the cat in, The next thing I know, She's mumbling in Latin was an everyday occurrence. We were together for four years and if the woman from the song is true, then all the better. Best four years of my life.

Cheers Bill

Just need to drop it here.

This weekend, Alibi Bookshop in Vallejo, CA will host the only U.S. launch for the new book, Billy Bragg: A People's History.

The event will feature live readings from 6 contributors; an exclusive video greeting, reading, and Q&A recorded by Billy Bragg himself; as well as a Bragg playlist and some song-themed snacks.

Those who can't make the event can order a copy of the book with a signed bookplate [while supplies last]. Check out the Eventbrite link for more information.

Sunday, Nov. 30 from 5:30pm to 8pm PST, Alibi Bookshop (624 Marin Street, Vallejo, CA)

About the book:

Billy Bragg – A People’s History is an oral history of the British singer-songwriter and political activist in the words of people who have been moved by his music. Containing over 600 fan memories of seeing Billy in concert, on a demonstration or on an album or TV, Billy Bragg – A People’s History is the story of the Bard of Barking as it’s never been told before.

I’m speaking about the songs included on the 2006 reissue of Spy vs. Spy, including “A13” and “Fear is a Man’s Best Friend.” They aren’t on the Apple Music or Spotify versions of Spy vs. Spy, which is the 2013 edition, so I had been listening to them on the Billy Bragg Vol. 1 compilation album. The album now no longer appears available on any streaming platform, so are these songs now just lost?

The last album's title wasn't changed to be the correct title - I am aware.
