    I know I'm not the only Clash fan here, so....

    The news of Joe Strummer's death at the age of 50 hit me like a bullet this morning.

    Thanks for the memories, mate.

    I was too young to appreciate them when they were topping the charts, but I do have several of their albums and trash around on their music once in a while.

    I share the shock, martin...50! that's still youth!

    What I remember most is actually his tribute to SouthPark's Chef in that rocumentary/SouthPark Special...

    Yeah, my all time favorite band and the fella was pretty much as close as an idol as a punk guy can have. Met him in Chicago for about 3 seconds. This was two years ago, and he still got all of us in the back!!!! Well, anyway, I'll go hear all of my bootleg clash albums tonight.
