More from Billy Bragg

I admit to following English singer-songwriter Billy Bragg on Facebook. Here are a couple of neat items I got from his newsfeed recently.

First, a quote of his from a Guardian article about him:

The market's like fire, you know? Constrain it, harness it, and it'll provide you with warmth and light and heat for your cooking … Let it rip, and it'll destroy everything you hold dear.

Then, on a completely different note, this post on Facebook:

Finally found time over the weekend to play with my Xmas present - a 35mm film negative scanner. Had a lot of fun digitising photos from the 1970s. Much mirth about my bad haircuts and sartorial choices, but here's one that had my son green with envy: me having just received tickets to see the Who at Charlton and the Stones at Earls Court in June 1976.

Here's a more recent photo to show what he looks like these days.
