Billy Bragg to play The Button Factory

Billy Bragg comes back to Ireland for a headline show for another top rock show for Dublin.

He is coming to play The Button Factory as part of the Harmonic series in a busy year for him which has seen him appear in a play, face down fascists on the streets of his hometown and get up on a soapbox to call on the UK government to withhold bankers’ bonuses. Billy began the year by refusing to pay his taxes to a government who, having bailed out two of the biggest UK banks, was now allowing them to pay massive bonuses from taxpayers money. Arguing that the bankers should be held accountable for their mistakes, he was fined by the Revenue for late payment of tax. I guess the moral of that story is pay your taxes regardless.

He will play The Button Factory in Dublin on Friday October 28th. Tickets for the show are priced at €23 inclusive of booking fee and are on sale now. Tickets are available from Tickets.ie and Ticketmaster.ie.
