i'm mad right now.some bastard from his family sold his car on ebay saying things like:
[I]the car in the exact condition in which he left it, this includes a pair of his signature sunglasses, a flashlight and a half-smoked packet of his favorite Rothmans cigarettes!! The car has a carpet dash cover which Joe put in himself, three bumper stickers Joe stuck on, and a small dent on the rear quarter panel which Joe put on himself too!! [/I]
and
[I]other incredible Joe Strummer personal memorabilia (with lots of signatures) including his actual California Drivers License, two AAA cards, English voting card, the written portion of his driving test, a whole bunch of receipts and records for his ’55 Cadillac and even a speeding ticket he picked up in Santa Barbara. [/I]
what a ****ing bastard.i can't stand it for some reasons...no respect. :angry: i dont think joe would be happy to see that.

you dont know the story

well at a gig in germany...the crowd really sucked and it was a bad gig, and i think it the a fan did somthing to mick (im not sure about this part) but the fan did somthing bad then out of anger/fustration joe hit the kid upside the head with a tele

Holy Christ! That must of hurt I know I hit my self in the head a couple times with my fender squier and it hurt like a [b]b[/b]itch, only this sounds x10 more hurtful

the kids diserved it for messing with the clash though

but now the guy gets to be ffamous for being the guy joe hit in the head with a guitar

For some reason that story makes me think of Joe talking about wanting to punch Mick and then run for it when he first saw Mick and Paul.

are you talking about the first practice with the band?

No, the part in Westway when Joe was talking about when he first saw them.

[QUOTE=combatrock*bass]

in the song midnight jam on streetcore joe says:
"name every jail in germany, i've been there while touring with the band" or something along those lines.

he died before he finished the vocals for this song, so there's no lyrics, just parts of joe talking that they took in the radio show he used to host (London Calling).The song starts with "this is london calling..calling...calling".The echo is really cool.

i need to get me a mescaleros cd!!

Since this is my 666th post, I'd like to comment on how evil Terry Chimes (Lamborghini guy :evil: ) is. Good night, and long live the Strummer thread!

when i listen to westway with the french subtitles, it says (the traslation of what it says in french):
"and yeah...i thought i'd punch joe first...'" instead of "..mick first.." and it's joe talking...

good night sean!

whats everyones fav instrumentilist (sp) in the clash

mine would be paul....i llllllllooooovvveee his basssss llliinnes

it's because you're a bass player :cool: but yeah, the bass is awesome

honestly, my favorite part in the clash is the lyrics. (must be cause i'm a writer heh?)

they were all good at their instruments.topper was a really good drummer.mick an awesome guitarist and paul and awesome bass player.joe's voice is the greatest and same for his lyrics.

I wouldn't nessecarily call them good talent wise, just writing wise.

Bit like The Beatles, none of their stuff was hard technically, just really well written

yea..difficutly dosent mean a thing if it doesnt sound good..

i love topper when he is playing the clampdown live on dvd..when joe gets up and stands next to the drums..its such a cool beat
