The first night's performance will feature Bragg's current set, which ranges across his 35 year career. The second will see Bragg perform songs from his first three albums; his 1983 punk rock debut Life's a Riot with Spy Vs Spy, its similarly raw follow-up Brewing Up with Billy Bragg from 1984 and Talking with the Taxman about Poetry from 1986. The third performance will see Bragg perform songs from his second three albums: the positively jangled Workers Playtime (1988), the pop classic Don't Try This at Home (1991) and the back-to-basics William Bloke (1996).
