Notes: At the end of 2000 Billy played three shows at The Bottom Line in New York.There were two shows on 30th December and one longer show on New Year's Eve which ran well past midnight. The audiences were invited to make requests which meant each show was unique and Billy played several songs that are rarely heard. In fact he hasn't played some of these songs apart from at these shows. All the shows were recorded by Mike from NYC. There are a few (very small) glitches but the audience noise is low and Bily was in top form. For all you will ever need to know about Billy Bragg visit http://braggtopia.com
