  1. Im not a huge Clash fan but dammit what a bummer. I remember it quite well. Shock and disbelief, since I had not too long before seen Joe and his band perform at St. Anne's warehouse. I was impressed by how good the man looked. Youthful. Seemingly in good health. It was a good show. As a bit of a NYC tribute they played Walk on the Wild Side and Blitzkrieg Bop. Fuckin cool! Then months later he just drops dead at the age of 50. Tragic. He was fuckin cool guy.
