Protest singer Billy Bragg is having a three-night residency at the Fine Line Music Café from April 18 to 20. I know one of these shows have already sold out… so get your tickets now if you want to see Billy Bragg.
We last saw Bragg in October 2016 and said, “Billy & Joe decided to delay their show later than scheduled, because due to the over sold out status, people were still lining up to get in the venue. Before and after every song they played, they had great stories about them. After the Jimmie Rodgers cover ‘Waiting for a Train’, Bragg jokingly said that he was “the first Englishman to yodel since Morrissey.” (Referring to The Smiths’ ‘The Boy With the Thorn in His Side’). The respectful audience was extremely quiet, except during these humorous stories.”
There will not be any opening band, because Bragg has been around for ages (35 years!) and can easily play a three-hour set. Having said that each night will feature a different set list.

4/25 – 4/27 – Lincoln Hall, Chicago, IL
9/19 – 9/21 – The Birchmere – Alexandria, VA

AKA Aly Spaltro, the singer/guitarist/banjo player from Maine mesmerized many in the folk-ready crowd, opening with ‘Crane Your Neck’, and played songs with peculiar titles like ‘Bird Balloons’ and ‘Spat Out Spit’.”
