[QUOTE=TheNowhereman42]nah cause at the time the english punk scene hated the american scene

in canada I'm so bored with the American republican party would make more sense[/QUOTE]

True, and Joe was also sick of seeing McDonalds' on every strret corner.

I may be wrong, but were the Clash the first band to ever criticize the American government eith I'm so Bored with the USA? Because it would be pretty ironic for an English band to be the first ones the criticize the US.

CombatRock 04-04-2005 09:48 PM

i dont know if you know this but..Im so Bored with the USA isnt an anti american song..its just saying how in england and other countries people were bored growing up on americaized customs and cultrual..they wanted to grow up there own way not like the americans

my dad said nobody knew how to react to The Ramones because they didn't look like punks and were American, and played in the city hall of one of the smallest, mopst ghetto towns in England (where my dad grew up)

I like the one is the essential clash booklet. I'll see if I can find it and edit this to put it in...

EDIT: I can't find it, but oh well. Apparently I replaced it accidently with a pic of me playing bass :(

But I found one I like a lot from clash photorockers

Forest_Fire 04-05-2005 03:42 PM

In the last one, what does it say on the arm of paul's jacket? Creative Violence?

Coma_Girl 04-05-2005 04:22 PM

i cant read really well...but it think it says creative violence

CombatRock 04-05-2005 04:26 PM

in the last one what kind of bass is that paul has..its not his rickenbacker or his fender?

TheNowhereman42 04-05-2005 05:13 PM

It looks like if Fender combined a P-bass with a telecaster

Forest_Fire 04-05-2005 05:27 PM

Thats crazy

CombatRock 04-05-2005 05:35 PM

but look at the head stock..its not a fender head stock

TheNowhereman42 04-05-2005 05:37 PM

might be a foriegn bass he borrowed for the picture, check out the spelling of November, he was probably in another country at the time

TheNowhereman42 04-05-2005 05:38 PM
