I emailed the photographer from the Roxy show to see if they are hers. Let's see if she responds!
Here's where we discussed this last time: https://clashcity.com/boards/viewtopic. ... 63#p673163
Ann Summa (photographer from the Roxy pictures included on bmc) got back to me to confirm it isn't one of her pictures. I figured it was unlikely but easy enough to cross off.

My best guess right now is another show around April 27th that's not listed on bmc. There is a show that happened on April 25th per this poster:

But that could be just in reference to the Fridays appearance that day. *edit* Apparently Fridays also aired live in the evening, so another show that not is unlikely.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Came across this one today on the Clash Facebook page, good to see the remaining three smiling together.

Is that recent? I love it.

I wasn't able to find any background info on it, bases on recent pics of Paul, I'm assuming it's newish.

I'm gonna guess, based on Topper standing on it, that it was taken when that big box of Clash stuff came out

Yeah it's a good while back. 2013?

Though Topper "Benjamin Button" Headon was so much older then. He's younger than that now.

Mick and Paul are sporting the same gear they wore for the New York press release for SS and CHB in September 2013, but i wasn't aware that Topper turned up for that.

Mick is a lot less chubby faced these days and has a beard.
