saw him at newcastle uni about 8 years ago supported by eliza carthy, one of my favourite gigs ever.
how do you get tickets for this gig at gateshead?

I've seen billy a few times. he can on occasions be bloody awful but mostly he's brilliant,his style suits small venues.don't know what the sage is like but you have to see him live
