Video game violence itrsquos a topic that has been debated for aeons on internet forums in the printed media and in the street atop upturned crates Last month it was the turn of Alan Titchmarsh and a handful of so-called lsquoexpertsrsquo

gt CHUCK RAGANWhen hardcore hero Chuck Ragan took a trip to our waters in support of Frank Turner The Eventrsquos Steph McKenna sat down

for a chat with him about the challenges of going solo and taking his music back to its folk roots

You are currently on the road with Frank Turner How is it going

so far

Itrsquos been great Wersquore only about three shows into it now but

wersquove just been having a blast Irsquove played with Frank before on

The mind set sort of changes when yoursquore there Once I stand up

with those boys and we get around each other it all falls back into

place I feel really lucky for that It is tough on the body and the

voice but I enjoy it and Irsquom really blessed to have the opportunity

to experience both sides to play stripped down folk songs and

then to just let it rip
