I wrote my dissertation on The Clash. He's right, it's not like getting into other bands.

[@marshall0814]

I agree bc the other bands are so much better, like The Damned, The Ruts, etc...

[@TrendyWebAltar]

Would love to read you dissertation!

[@rebelwaltz6167]

The Clash were the greatest rock band for me. Waiting for you two to do that two hour show on the Sandinista album.

[@thetaxmanx15]

Thank you so much for introducing me to this wonderful album. I can't stop listening to it

[@MakeSomeNoisePlaylists]

good for you

[@agathafry4233]

Thanks for the reminder, geeks! :) Off to listen to Big Audio Dynamite.

The video is lame but the song "Contact" is still awesome.

[@Scottlp2]

Only know a little clash but the song Death or Glory has some of the most memorable lyrics of anything I've ever heard.

[@jimkeller998]

I heard the song London Calling when I was 13 (1979-1980) and something just clicked. Things changed and I can't quite explain how.

[@gardenlover9663]

I was supposed to see The Clash in Long Beach. I became sick right before the concert, and I gave the tickets to my brother. It still stings.

[@Derbstaff76]

They are still the coolest band.

[@mineralt]

Never saw them live. Bummer. Always interesting to see a band with zero filter of a producer.

[@diegooliveirabenjamin]

Love this dude!

[@ianhockey10]

Charlie don’t surf but I think he should

[@johndeleonardis901]

So true; The Clash are quintessential coolness. If only others would defend the ‘Cut the Crap’ album with me! 😛

[@jeevithrai7994]

Even Joe admits that record was horrible. But I will say that Combat Rock doesn't get it's due diligence outside of the big hits.

[@charlesgreene8631]

Props to Sandinista!

[@FUBAR_AGA111]

The only band that ever mattered.

[@Mike_Davidson]

*Robert Smith aged like a fine wine.* 🤷‍♂️😂🤣

Fred is literally in my opinion the ‘luckiest actor comedian’ ever

[@Covid--ts5cw]

Does this guy always post at 3am. I like the show, it's like inside the actors studio without an audience, which I find to be personally offensive.

[@jaredmitchell1302]

You okay. Need a hug?

[@Covid--ts5cw]

I like him as a comedian but can't stand him as a person. I like his stuff on Netflix. Last thing I watched of his was something about Grey Gardens which I feel was personally offensive.
Rest in peace grandma.

[@Simonknowsall]

We don't know what kind of person he is off camera

[@theheartofablackbird2109]

[@TronVila]

Aww Covid. I like you as a virus, but you’re not as special as everyone keeps saying. Don’t let your fame go to your head because at your core you know you don’t deserve the attention and you’re just being used

[@giterdun77]

What the fuck are you on about, you knobhead

[@marshall0814]

In the early '80s Thr Clssh were always playing in the cool record stores. I found them boring. Still do. The Clash were the soundtrack to shopping for much better records.
