Last night, Ted Leo made his latest in a series of recurring appearances on The Best Show on WFMU with Tom Sharpling, during their annual fund drive. Aside from playing a few solo versions of songs from his forthcoming album, The Brutalist Bricks, and a couple goofy covers, Ted whipped out an old Chisel classic... "Innocents Abroad." As Ted explains, he actually had to download the lyrics from the internet, to refresh his memory after not having played the tune in about 13 years!
Well, it sounded as good as ever, and was certainly a special treat for all the old-school Chisel fans out there. We've procured an MP3 of the cut for you, so check it out!

Chisel is headlining the South Bend Power 90s reunion show in Spring 2013.

"Milk-a-what??"
very nice. This reminded me that he's playing here in Chicago on Saturday!
Oh man, so awesome. I love Chisel.
A Chisel reunion would be amazing. Chris Norborg is an attorney in California now. How crazy is that?
