        yep – I was shocked by this too – he seemed otherwise in reasonable health and was literally gigging only weeks ago…

          Yeh, really took the edge off things that news.. A man I admired for sticking to his principles.

          Decided the best tribute I can manage will be to start NYE with a set of Clash tunes…

              Actually I’m REALLY looking fwd to playing it, we’re normally the chillout rig but as it’s NYE some liberties are allowed!!… As you’re SO far away here’s the tracks to recreate it 😀 To be played VERY loud… (from Here To Eternity Live-11-17)armagideon Time (from Here To Eternity Live-11-17)/I fought the law/should I stay or should I go/london calling/pressure drop/police and thieves/bank robber/bank robber dub/armagideon time/the call up/justice tonight – kick it over/armagideon time (live 220682)/the guns of brixton/stay free.

              Enjoy, Happy New Year from the south to the north 😀
