Joe Strummer RIP

For those of you who don't know The Clash legend Joe Strummer died of a heart attack yesterday. A very sad day for music indeed.

Forums: The Bar,

Man, that sucks. He wasn't even that old.

I know he was only 50!!

That is incredibly sad. Sad day for film as well (not to diminish his music career) . I only know of two movies he was in, but they're both in my top five: Mystery Train, and Straight to Hell.

Man, and he was still chugging out tunes with that new band of his - the Mascelleros (sp?). Remember seeing 'em at the BDO.

Peace be with him.
Strummer and The Clash were probably responsible for bringing a political edge to popular contemporary music.

Real bummer. BDO 2000, he fuckin ruled. And the Clash were gonna reform for the RnR Hall of Fame in 03....
