Comments & Reviews:

Dec 04, 2023

Billy Bragg also did a 4-5 night rooftop stint at the Danceteria in New York in '84 or '85. Not listed here. I went most nights. I think it was the night Alien Sex Fiend was downstairs doing their thing. I always liked him. His politics. And his hopefulness. Then and now.
