On that day, I will download a copy and vow never to play it.
Straight to the incinerator.
The fire burned hot and long, fueled by pure shit.
I'm now perversely tempted to try this.
Just remember that when you are strutting around in your newly built rock 'n' roll city that it wasn't us that started the fire.

Well we've got a gig supporting Toyah tomorrow. I'm wondering whether she talks to oiks like us or she has a limo that pulls up 2 minutes before showtime. I suppose I'll ask her if she ever met the Clash.

Not strictly true it was a great gig. Strange as it seems now but back then she had a punk following and I remember there was a lot of crowd trouble between rival gangs (blame Marky’s Reading crew). I also remember someone climbed up the safety curtain so someone had the bright idea to drop it 😳

It's all a mystery to me. I'm sure I saw her at Reading town hall or was it the top rank. Just like Adam & the Ants who also had a big Punk following early on.

It was in the Clash observations thread. Just search for "Wardour."

Good stuff. Nice that she was decent as well. What's your ratio of covers to originals in the setlist usually?
