  • you should have poked his missus

  • Went to the Mick Jones exhibit, was a bit rubbish to be honest, nice ride on canal from Islington to Westbourne Park though apart from being pelted with stones by some teenagers. The man had a single speed though, bonkers great big american thing.

  • The Clash were shit... Fact...

    You wont get a rise out of me cos I saw them many times, all over the world. I know what I saw and heard. Why not dig out some proper shit, too many to name! Joe R.I.P. legend.

  • The Clash without exception were the best live band ever. But I am West London so I'm biased.

    Am very jealous, would have loved to have seen them live.

    Indeed. Where would this country be without the Public School sector.

  • Brucy and Hoops are right on the money... Incidentally, Clash fans are also humorless dicks... ;P

    LOL.
    The Alarm FTW then?...

    without Ian Curtis and Stephen Morris from Joy Division who went to the King's School Macclesfield?

    Happier?

    No argument from me. Curtis was a nazi obsessed weirdo, and Morris the least talented of a talentless bunch reliant on a great production.

  • reliant on a great production.

    And that wasn't all that tbh...

    Indeed. Never seen the appeal of JD myself, much prefer Kraftwerk influenced New Order. Then again I ain't a typical Manc, can't stand the fucking Smiths (except for Marr's guitar).

  • Love will tear us apart.........

    Digital was a good track but apart from that miserable shite, get yourself a nice new avatar MancRonnie Ian Curtis is looking at me funny

      The Clash might look irrelevant to-day, but back in 1977 they meant a lot to kids living in shit-holes, and fuck all work about. Dont see the point in knob twiddling computer dance music filling the charts now.
    
  • I love knob twiddling.

  • I was a kid living on a grim council estate in '77... To be honest tho', I was more scared of all the punks getting pissed and larkin' abaht outside Sex/Seditionaries than I was of the mentalists my fellow Chelsea fans wandering up the Kings Road towards Stamford Bridge... Always more of a Pistols fan, personally... Only teasin' tho... ;]

  • I love knob twiddling.

    Horses for courses, innit? ;P

  • She likes to twiddle knobs too.

  • Hmmm, donuts...

  • Fuck me, what did I start?

    I wrote that after watching the BB4 documentary and a fair few beers...I think the cool thing about the Clash was that they were happy to be political and didn't worry so much about the establishment / industry. (But then, bands could actually make some money out of having a fan base back then so were prolly better off than most aspirant bands these days).

    Joe Strummer seems to have been genuinely well liked and had some pretty cool influences for a public school boy.

    Better than fucking bed wetting bands of the present day who are too scared to speak out about war and civil rights abuse for fear of having the oxygen of publicity removed. God I'm going to mention Neil Young soon - I'm getting old.

    Nurse!
