is that your house in the background andy?

[QUOTE=combatrock*bass]is that your house in the background andy?[/QUOTE]
no, i was at my friend's house:p

big house.

im going to make my 3000 post in this thread!

my english teacher told me that in rock the casbah, when it says "rock the casbah" you can also hear "block the task force", i dont remember exactly what the task force is, but it has to do with England who wants to get an island back so they send the task force. Joe probably knows what it is anyway.

has your english teacher ever seen the clash or met joe anything like that?

My uncle saw The Clash.

were at. when. did he love it?!

Dunno where. Early 80s I think. He said they were good.

My Aunt saw DK in the 80s

i never asked him, but i guess he would have told me...so probably not.

[QUOTE=sketchyjoe]Dunno where. Early 80s I think. He said they were good.[/QUOTE]
i hope they were good...how could the clash suck?

Everyone has an off-day.

[QUOTE=sketchyjoe]Everyone has an off-day.[/QUOTE]
even in off-days i'm sure they were better than any other band.

[QUOTE=Coma_Girl]how could the clash suck?[/QUOTE]Not every Clash song is good and I'm sure not every one of their live performances was either. There are many bands I'd have preferred to see than The Clash.

their songs are not ALL good, but the good ones are the best songs ever -for me

Even if the Clash weren't perfect live, they still had alot of energy and stuff.

Actually. I'm not even sure if thats is what you guys are talking about, because my computer had been buttfuc[B]k[/B]ed with spyware and viruses and its too slow for me to gou back pages :(.

When I was reading the Last Gang in Town, one of the Sex Pistols said the same thing.

is it a good book?i tried to find it, but i guess i'll have to order it from amazon or something when i'll have money.

i really think johnny hated joe.

Yeah it was pretty good, Its written in a pretty cool way, where each chapter is written by a different person close to Johnny, and then he writes a few himself. I got it at Barns and Noble.

I assume we're both talking about Rotten: No Blacks, Dogs, or Irishmen

yes :thumb:

[QUOTE=Coma_Girl]i really think johnny hated joe.[/QUOTE]

I think that too. Johnny was an a[B]ss[/B]hole.

[QUOTE=guns_of_brixton]So do I. He was an a[B]ss[/B]hole.[/QUOTE]
:eek:
the way you said that make it sounds like you hate joe cause he's an a[U]s[/U]shole

Ohh :eek:.

I'll edit that : :p.

i was reading somewhere that Johnny said that The Clash wrote bad lyrics. I think he was just jealous of them. Because The Clash are better.

only reasons Jhonny and the Pistols said these things about The Clash is because they were jelous.

Of course they were jealous. Has anyone heard Anarchy in the USA by The Clash and the pistols. I downloaded it a while back. Its a good song.

[QUOTE=white_riot]i was reading somewhere that Johnny said that The Clash wrote bad lyrics. I think he was just jealous of them. Because The Clash are better.[/QUOTE]

Johnny wrote crappy lyrics. Alot of people don't like the Clash because they are associated alot with the Pistols. My friend thought the Clash were a "s[B]hit[/B]ty punk band" until I played the Guns of Brixton and Tommy Gun for him.

bad lyrics? :lol: Johnny is so gay sometimes. But I still like him cause he looked like a cute puppy when he was younger

Of course Johnny Rotten said that, he tries to insult everyone to look cool.


His lyrics are far surpassed by Joe's, so he's simply envious of The Strumma's writing abilities.

Thats very true.

i like this interview
(sniffin' glue, september 1976, by steve walsh)

I typed it all myself from the book LFHTH...it took me a while, so be greatful!
SW: Steve Walsh, MJ: Mick Jones, JS: Joe Strummer, PS: Paul Simonon.

[U]Interview Part 1[/U]

SW: What's the name about, why call yourselves Clash?

PS: Well, it's a clash against things that are going on...the music scene, and all that we're hoping to change quite a lot.

SW: Does this mean you're political?

MJ: Yes, we're definitely political!

[B]JS: We wanna be the apathy party of Great Britain, so that all the people who don't vote go out and don't vote for us![/B]

MJ: We're really into encouraging creativity...We ain't a bunch of raving facists!

SW: Are you a bunch of raving anarchists?

JS: I don't believe in all that anarchy bollocks!

MJ: Yeah, anarchists believe in lawlessness...Look, the only important thing is to encourage people to do things for themselves, think for themselves and stand up for what their rights are.

SW: You hate apathy?

MJ: Oh, I fu[U]c[/U]kin' hate apathy but I hate ignorance more than anything.

SW: Do you try to put this over your songs?

MJ: All our songs are about being honest, right? The situation as we see it, right?

SW: Right! So the songs relate directly to you and your environment?

MJ: Right, otherwise we'd be writing bull****!
----------------
(....)
----------------
SW: What do you think is wrong with people today?

MJ: They're apathetic...boring...boring music bores me!Boring 'cause it's not new, boring cause it's not...

JS: It's a lie...

MJ: ...They ain't pushin' themselves nowhere, they ain't being creative.

JS: Where's that picture of the George Hatcher Band?

PS: Oh yeah, that's a real joke, that is...

JS: We found this to be...

MJ: Hilarious, have you seen it? (They hold up an advertisement for the George Hatcher Band showing 2 members in typical stage pose.)

JS: I mean, the whole thing is a lie, it means nothing.

MJ: Except that they're on tour with Dr. Feelgood.

JS: All this crap like, oh yeah, they've got long hair and he's got his arm up here and look at his cowboy shirt and the trousers.

SW: What have clothes got to do with it?

MJ: Well, this is what rock'n'roll's supposed to look like...

JS: It's a state of mind.

MJ: What's the difference between this ad and the cover of last week's NME, it's the same pose ain't it? I think that's the same pair of trousers, from "Jean Machine." (Mick was referring to the previous week's cover pic of the Rod's Dave Higgs.)

SW: But they're a pair of trousers!

JS: No, you can't say that's clothes and this is music, it's a state of mind, a complete thing. If anything was going on in that bloke's head he would do something about it.

JS: We deal in junk, you know, I just realized that the other day. We deal in junk. We deal in, like, the rubbish bin. What we've got is what other people have put in the rubbish bin. Like Mick's shirt was gonna be put in the bin until he paid 10p for it. I mean, you ain't gonna go down to "Sex" with yer ten quid stuffed in yer pocket and buy some stupid...er...I dunno, I've never even been down there.

MJ: I think it's a bit easy to go down there and look great, I mean, their stuff's pretty good. Looks good to me, but I think the way we do it is much more accessible to kids cos anyone, at very little price and it encourages 'em to do something for themselves. It's to do with personal freedom...I don't think it's just the trousers though, I mean, the trousers reflect the mind.

[B]JS: Like trousers, like brain![/B]
