Subject: Artwork Typo
Just stumbled on this, it's been a while since I heard this recording - but seeing as I have the source......:-)

The gig was recorded with a Sharp MDMT99 Minidisc using a 10 year old, free mic (that's seen better days) hanging from a leather rope that carries an old celtic crucifx and resting between 2 t-shirts)

At some point in one of the tracks you can hear my lighter flick - it was a Bic disposable and I was smoking roll-ups made with Green Rizla and Old Holbourn tobacco.

Oh, and I was aware of the track listing error as pointed out by many of the Billy Bragg forum users (not by Bill himself though, who took 6 copies - one for Wiggy) but as I'd already printed the artwork, could do no more than agree and blame my computer keyboard.

Glad people like it, cheers to Steinsky for making it available.

Subject: Nice rowdy show.
Not a soundboard recording, but a very nice show. Different songs than the typical billy show because of the venue. This is the only show I've heard where Billy sounds like he's not a teacher and leader, but among peers.

just in case you wonder, the following review IS correct in its revised track listing.

Subject: track 15?
Note- The tracklisting on the setlist is a little off... here's the actual list:

09. Waiting For The Great Leap Forwards/ Lovers Town [not revisted!]/Safe European Home (tease)
10. Groovy Times
11. Pressure Drop
12. White Man In Hammersmith Palais
13. Police & Thieves
14. Garrageland


Awesome solo-ish show, nice aud recording. Love the Clash covers (P&T a cover of Junior Murvin with new lyrics in the Clash spirit), obviously, but also some relevant politics (just a couple weeks before Iraq II).

many thanks to JonT & Steinsky
