The Kid is better than Bragg thats for sure.

The Geriatric Bragg ruined it!

[handsomevision]

@stopbadsingers they both suck ass. i hate all the cute comments all these wimps are coming up with. gg allin rules. git r done. whats a good plate with nothing on it?

[lurkingpanther]

what can you assume about someone who is impressed by a fat man shiting over himself and randomly attacking members of the audience???

xxx

[handsomevision]

ok tough guy, you win. but he does do a mean cover of the song carmelita. die when you die is one hardcore punk song. gg was a retarded monster but at least he was brave enough to be himself (thats not saying much) but every time i feel like telling my boss to go and fudge himself and i wimp out i envy the gg's and the morrison's.

[dizzybees]

I love him a little bit more after that- he's so wonderful.

And BB's not bad too ;)

[greenblacky]

unfortanely billy brag is a pro -national -identity marxist and no anarchiest our movement need semeone like billy dammit

[TheSjspen]

@greenblacky Would you care to write that in such a way that I have a chance of understanding what you are on about?

[wovokanarchy]

Poor kid, once he grows up and realizes socialism is utopian with no base in reality.

[darlincommitme]

To those asking who the future rocker is, this is from Bragg's blog about the gig. Just a kid Billy noticed and invited up:

In the front row away to my right I become aware of a little kid leaping around during the songs, playing a toy electric guitar. He is active all night, windmilling his arm like a tiny Pete Townsend and throwing some classic guitar hero shapes. His name is Ossie and, the end of the show, I invite him up to perform with me during "A New England." He steals the show.

[ggforeigner]

Billy Bragg, a wonderful hero for

a child to have...he'll remember thar all his life!

[panteraboy123]

[58jtm]

That was really great. It's rare for me to watch a youtube video, even of a Billy Bragg performance, and smile the whole way through, but I did with this.

[WoodyDee]

So good to read this...glad you enjoyed it.

[OiYouSlag]

aw thats cool

[imaginaryannie]

I am very disappointed that this starts AFTER some of the best lines of the song.

[WoodyDee]

Sorry 'bout that Annie, as it was; it was unplanned and fortunately I was able to jump in capture what was occurring without much fuss and setup. Enjoy!

[TheGreatEckscape]

That's Bragg all over, what a top bloke!

[mud4blud]

You're not looking for a new Wiggy, are you? Almost as lively as the old one...

[gobosgirl]

Ozzie absolutey stole the show. Sign this kid up indeed!

[apples091]

Billy has been a constant with me for 25 years and I have had many great moments at his gigs. Glad to see him rocking all over the world!!!

[AusMossy]

Brilliant stuff. Brought back memories of all the joyous Billy Bragg gigs I have seen over the years.

[phirrups]

This kid is so cool. I was there and the audience loved it. Thanks Billy!

[fnygrl]
