We don’t mean to Bragg…

So one for the older members of the greater Cube community to enjoy. Ex Squaddie, writer, political activist and even Musician Billy Bragg came to The Cube as part of a project dsigned to get guitars into prison to help in the rehabilitation of prisoners: Breaking Rocks

I suggest you check out the very good website.

Anyhow it was great to see lots of old faces, the usual Billy Bragg tour t-shirts from latter years and to hear a couple of ex members of HMP sing some of the songs they’d written with the guitars they’d been given. Billy did a Q&A with film director Alan Milesthat was really interesting and then he played a couple of songs.

This was a really lovely night spent with one of the good guys amongst the usual lovely Cube audience and volunteers.
