Ever see the video for this tune filmed with some of the footage from when they were at Bonds in NYC? I was at one of the concerts in 1981 when I was a sphmore in High School. They oversold the tickets and there was complete mayhem leading up to the original shows due to fire codes, etc.
My folks freaked and wouldn't let me go when they saw what was going on on the news. I said I was going to sleep at a friends house and wouldn't bother getting involved with the mess at the theater (yeah right...) and went anyway and got other tickets to added show dates. There was NO WAY I was missing The Clash. (The band added extra shows to accomodate all the people who would have been screwed anyway. It was awesome). Still, it was bedlam, but it was WORTH it!
When people say The Clash are the only band that matters, they KNOW what they are talking about!
Brilliant!
