Strummer On Letterman / Rolling Stone
Joe Strummer will be on Letterman tonight (Wednesday). The Mescaleros were chosen over Weezer to the the musical guest for this show. There is also a Strummer article on RollingStone.Com which has an interesting answer to the tired old "Clash Reunion" question :
"You have to ask yourself, "Would it turn out good music?" Would it be worthwhile in terms of making a brilliant record. Obviously, financially, we'd be set up for life. But as long as I can keep grinding away and doing really interesting things like this Global a Go Go record, I feel I'm vindicating what I'm doing. However, if the Mescaleros fell out with each other and I was standing around on a deserted rubbish heap, who knows? Perhaps a Clash reunion, then maybe there is another record within us. But that would be the question, and it's the same with all the guys. "Would there be another album within us?"Check out my review for the fantastic Global a Go Go
