Raw Money, Live Rock And Roll

If you were quick off the mark, you might have secured some gratis tickets for Friday's top gig in Belfast. It's part of the Raw Money series which inspired our 'Hard Times' playlist earlier in the year. The premise, as I understand it, is that by sharing older songs about credit problems that you come to a better understanding of the current anxieties. Allied to this is the chance to speak with financial experts and to learn more about personal money management.

The upside is that this Friday's gig will also go out online, via the BBC NI website. Which means that from 8pm, you can still see Foy Vance, Ram's Pocket Radio, Pocket Promise, Captain Kennedy, Here Comes The Landed Gentry and more. It's a commendably bold idea that will involve Rigsy and Paul from ATL plus presenter Sarah McGlinchey, all winging it with style. I also hear that some mad combo is planning to perform the theme tune to Only Fools And Horses ....
