i wish joe was my dad

awww me too.it would be so cool, but i guess if joe was my dad, i wouldnt listen tot he clash and the mescaleros that much.

Has anyone seen the Hell-cat promo video where Tim Armstrong and Joe Strummer are on a rooftop, and Joe says something like, "It's Joe Strummer and Tim Armstrong, OG and punk rock warlord"? It's tight.

If Joe was my dad, I would love those take your kid to work day things.

i've never seen it...the stupid videos on epitaph website dont want to play on my fu[B]c[/B]king computer!

I just read that Bernie co-wrote the-album-that-must-not-be-named. He should've stuck to his day job...

i'm pretty sure he did.
bernie was kinda strange.
he told joe that combat rock was a bad album, but it's their big hit in the usa...and bernie wanted them to be big in the usa...to have a lot of money.


haha the last testament dvd! :lol: with guy stevens throwing chairs everywhere.ahhh i love that.

When are the Clash comin out with a new album?

[QUOTE=GCSux]When are the Clash comin out with a new album?[/QUOTE]

I'm not sure if this is a joke or not, but the Clash are never coming out with a new album. Their last "real" album was released in 1982.

was that that awesome Clash Acoustic one I have?

Maybe Bernie was pissed about Rock the Casbah, since it was basically a joke on him.

And on the Last Testament dvd Topper said that a stack of chairs fell on Guy and you can hear it on the album! Guy really had ome issues with chairs.

i thought rock the casbah was a song about the middle east not letting music be played there or somthing along those lines?

[QUOTE=combatrock*bass]i heard somone were that on one song on london calling, you can hear somone yelling cos of a thrown chair..has anyone else heard of this or is it just a clash myth[/QUOTE]

Yea, I think it really does exist, but I dont know which song.

Well Combat Rock [I]did[/I] suck

[QUOTE=GCSux]When are the Clash comin out with a new album?[/QUOTE]

Joke account.

[QUOTE=combatrock*bass]i thought rock the casbah was a song about the middle east not letting music be played there or somthing along those lines?[/QUOTE]
the part

the king told the boogie man
you gotta let that raga drop

is clearly about bernie

yea but

"by order of the prophet ban that boogie sound"

i always though it meant middle eastern government banning like punk or new wave music..idk i might be wrong

[QUOTE=combatrock*bass]i thought rock the casbah was a song about the middle east not letting music be played there or somthing along those lines?[/QUOTE]

I heard that Bernie kept complaining that all of the tracks on Combat Rock (while still recording it) sounded like ragas (I'm not sure what raga means :confused:) so Joe wrote the lines: "Now the king told the boogie men/ you've got to let that raga drop."

And it turned into a hit single :).

a hit single and a funny video :lol:

I'm pretty sure "raga" is a Middle-Eastern-influenced song structure, or something similar.

[QUOTE=Coma_Girl]a hit single and a funny video :lol:[/QUOTE]
isnt the video shot in el paso texas?

[QUOTE=AndreTheHyena]I'm pretty sure "raga" is a Middle-Eastern-influenced song structure, or something similar.[/QUOTE]

Probably. I thought it was what Brits called reggae :D.

[QUOTE=combatrock*bass]isnt the video shot in el paso texas?[/QUOTE]

did joe really believe in heaven/hell/god/religion anyway?

I'd like to think he did, at least to a degree, though I doubt he was Christian.

[QUOTE=TheNowhereman42]no, he's going "Straight to Hell"
