Yes your red mist descends into thick fog. A professional musician working successfully for over 40 years and to you he's "a drip" because he supports a political party you don't like and lives in nice house he's paid for.

Typical Daily Wail - headline and content differ. Little caveat as t the end

 

"A spokesman for Savills declined to discuss the sale. The Mail on Sunday has seen the marketing brochure for the property, but last night a spokesman for Mr Bragg insisted: ‘The house is not for sale.’"

 

The "we can write any s**te we like and avoid being sued with this little note".

Jail Guitar Doors is an independent initiative which aims to provide instruments to those who are using music as a means of achieving the rehabilitation of prison inmates. Founded by Billy Bragg, it takes its name from the b-side of the Clash’s 1978 single ‘Clash City Rockers’. Billy writes:

 

"In early 2007, I was looking to do something positive to mark the fifth anniversary of the death of Joe Strummer when I received a request from a local jail. Malcolm Dudley, a drug and alcohol counsellor at nearby Guys Marsh prison in Dorset, was utilising his skills as a musician to set up a guitar class as a means of engaging prisoners in the process of rehabilitation. Borrowing a guitar from the prison chaplain and repairing an old nylon-strung instrument found in a prison cupboard, Malcolm began to make progress with the inmates. However, he soon became aware that their development was being held back by the lack of available instruments on which to practise between sessions. He wrote to me asking for help.

 

I immediately grasped the potential of Malcolm’s work, knowing from my own experience how playing guitar and writing songs can help an individual to process problems in a non-confrontational way. I bought half a dozen acoustic guitars and, just as Joe Strummer had painted slogans on his guitar, had them spray-painted with the titles of Clash songs – ‘Clash City Rocker’, ‘Stay Free’ and, of course, ‘Jail Guitar Doors’.

 

Having delivered the guitars and heard from the inmates themselves about the positive effects of the work that Malcolm was doing, I wondered if there might be other people like Malcolm in prisons across the country, willing and able to do the work, but held back by a lack of instruments. At the NME Awards in March 2007, I announced the formation of Jail Guitar Doors to find such people and meet that need. I am pleased to say that the first person in the room to walk up to me with an offer of support was Clash guitarist Mick Jones.

 

Since then, Jail Guitar Doors has donated instruments to more than 20 prisons. Sponsorship from Gibson Musical Instruments has allowed us to extend our reach beyond the UK.

 

The average cost per prison is less than £500, an amount which could be raised at a benefit concert by any band or artist that can draw a crowd. I’m asking musicians, particularly those of you who were inspired by the Clash, to raise funds to help inmates take the first steps towards rehabilitation.

I linked my dictionary definition. That you want to construe it as "homophobic", which it isn't, says a lot about your reasons for incessantly flinging out effeminate terminology as put-downs which i note you never use to Pelmet or 747, just posters whose viewpoints you vehemently oppose. Whats disgraceful is your attempting to level accusations of homophobia at people where there is none....only in your warped and disturbed mind. Items people donate to any cause are either owned or purchased by them......not everyone walks in a shop and steals. That you're so coy about my asking what charity or cause you donate to suggests you don't.

Excellent....thanks for posting that. Many pro-musicians do a variety of work for good cause and of course Johnny Cash springs to mind with prison reform. Rod Stewart i recently learned is involved with Cancer charities for children. Many don't always openly talk about what charities or foundations they support as some draw unwarranted criticism. Brian May is well known for his hedgehog support but less well known was his fury at the media publishing how he had helped Astronomer, Sir Patrick Moore, during his latter years when he got into financial difficulties with his home. Brian had hoped to keep that matter private.

I donate to a Greyhound charity ...

 

... mostly because they do not mug or burgle little old ladies. ;-)

 

We give to our local greyhound charity and had for many years a beautiful rescue greyhound from them ... Greyhounds are fantastic with kids ... Unlike the squad on hear I actually practise what I preach and I gave a home to something that found itself homeless , I paid for his food , his medical bills etc etc and didn't expect anyone else to stump up any cash for him
