[QUOTE=guns_of_brixton2]In King of the Hill that crazy asian guy (Con, I think that's his name.) was singing Rock the Casbah at a lawnmower focus group :lol:.[/QUOTE]

:lol: it was a joke...if you read from page 4, you can see that the lamborghini guy is not our favorite drummer of all time...and we keep making jokes about him crashing his lamborghini. And I dont know what happenned to Keith after the clash...

[QUOTE=white_riot]I'll put it in the Lets Get Physical thread, maybe tommorrow but my computer is pretty crap, so I don't know if it will work. I'll try though.[/QUOTE]

Thanks mucho :thumb:.

Haha, all of those LG jokes are classic :lol:.

I think that Keith was in some band with some former Sex Pistols, I believe. And I didn't know until a little while ago that he wrote (or at least helped write) What's My Name.

Whoa...that's a relief :lol:

/me does some research on Keith Levene

After The Clash, he worked with Sid Vicious. When [I]he[/I] went to the Sex Pistols, and then died, Johnny Rotten and Keith worked on Public Image Limited. He continued to work with other punk bands, before starting a band with Glen Matlock in the late '90s. That folded, and now he works on a website called Missing Channel, as a "creative outlet."

The more you know....

guns_of_brixton2 06-14-2005 09:12 PM

Ha, I was right!

And I posted first :D.

Coma_Girl 06-14-2005 09:15 PM

whats the link to the website hes working on?

Glitterati 06-14-2005 09:16 PM

[QUOTE=Coma_Girl]whats the link to the website hes working on?[/QUOTE]

I typed it in, and the "domain had expired."

Huh. I dunno what the official name of the site is.

Coma_Girl 06-15-2005 01:52 PM

I just read somewhere that the mescaleros were on the warped tour in 2001 or something :confused: aaaaaaaaaah!

white_riot 06-15-2005 01:56 PM

Are you serious?

Coma_Girl 06-15-2005 01:58 PM

yeah

white_riot 06-15-2005 03:40 PM

There was this thing going on in the Songwriting Forum, best 100 Proffesional Songwriters of all time and Joe got third.

Forest_Fire 06-15-2005 03:42 PM

Who were the ones above him?

TheJackOfHearts 06-15-2005 03:51 PM

Dylan won (as he should have) and Lennon/McCartney were second.

Forest_Fire 06-15-2005 03:53 PM

Where was Cash?



I thought Paul Simonon was #98 for a minute...

TheJackOfHearts 06-15-2005 03:54 PM

Wasn't in it.

Thats awesome. I'm going to find that thread.

TheJackOfHearts 06-15-2005 04:23 PM

It's the top sticky in S & L.

guns_of_brixton 06-15-2005 04:30 PM

Yea, I found it. I think they should have had it as Strummer/Jones though.

TheJackOfHearts 06-15-2005 04:36 PM

That's what I thought. The right person won though. I'm pretty sure Joe's a Dylan fan as he refers to Desolation Row in Coma Girl.

[QUOTE=TheJackOfHearts]That's what I thought. The right person won though. I'm pretty sure Joe's a Dylan fan as he refers to Desolation Row in Coma Girl.[/QUOTE]

I agree with Dylan winning, but I would easily put Joe ahead of Lennon and McCartney.

And who doesn't like at least one Bob Dylan song? The Hurricane is my favorite, and its a good movie as well. But this is the Clash thread, so I'll stop...

TheJackOfHearts 06-15-2005 04:53 PM

I can't pick a favourite Dylan song but Desolation Row is definitely up there.

Glitterati 06-15-2005 05:49 PM

[QUOTE=TheJackOfHearts]Dylan won (as he should have) and Lennon/McCartney were second.[/QUOTE]

I gotta say, that's a da[FONT=Verdana]m[/FONT]n good list. Three of my all-time favorites.

But I can't believe they left out Johnny Cash, but kept that little Oberst bitch.

if you're talking about conor oberst from bright eyes, he's pretty good and i lile him a lot...but yeah, i like johnny cash more.

In LFHTH, Joe said that he was a big fan of Dylan.
