Even from his first album Life’s A Riot,
recorded in a three day burst of energy, Billy
Bragg’s music has had a political bent to it.
With the political zoo going on today in the
world he sure has a lot to sing about on his
new album ,Worker’s Playtime, hopefully
available some time this week.

In the beginning Billy would play solo,
occasionally bringing his childhood friend
Wiggy onstage for a song or two. now he has
a third person, a pregnant woman no less,
helping on piano. He’ll be playing with his
new band at the Commodore Ballroom on °
the 23, and 24 of September. Songs from his
new album plus song’s from his other
albums,Brewing up With Billy Bragg, and
Talking to the Taxman About Poetry, will be

 

 

Movie Review

 

by Doreen Summerfelt

 

Betrayed

The Paul Newman eyes are the first thing
that catch your attention in this deep hearted
film about modern day racism. This hard
hitting film shows that not all people are who

they seem to be. This movie is well worth

seeing and will get everybody thinking about
some rather disturbing and shocking events.

featured. His political\social electric
folk-music will bring a lot of electric guitar,
off-tune singing, and some of the best lyrics
about relationships and politics today.
Opening up for Billy Bragg will be The
Beatnigs. A band who’s cacophonous/funk
industrial music has more energy than any
band than I’ve ever seen. A valid death
certificate will be the only excuse accepted
for not dancing.

For a night with an abundance of
thoughtful energy come to the Commodore
Ballroom on friday or saturday the 23 or 24.
Doors open at 8:00 show starts at 9:30; you
won’t be dissapointed. Tickets available at
VTC/Ticketmaster, Zulu, Black Swan,
Highlife, and Track record stores. Or charge
by phone 280-4444.

 

The Ups and Downs of
New Westminster: You
can't avoid them.

 

by Tamara Gorin and Pam Manweiler

 

Let’s face it, there’s a hill in New
Westminster and you can’t get around it. If
you’re walking to the college, you’ ll have to
go up a hill at some point during the day.
There are only two ways to completely avoid
this:

1. Go to a different college, or
