Billy Bragg was nice enough to give me a shout out in the Wall Street Journal this weekend.

UK tour photos!

Hello friends-
File this in the better late than never category. I learned a few things while touring the UK.

It was so cool to listen to it the new old fashioned way (on a CD not mp3) for full Hi Fi fidelity. Congratulations.

At 9:38am on June 6, 2008, Brian Brothers said…: Good to hear from you too! Glad things are going well. We miss you here in Indy, but I know you often miss the people, and not the place...at least that is what I felt like when I lived in Chicago. I saw that you were playing up there. Have a good show. Let me know the next time that you are playing in Indy. Good Travels!
