Might have been more, but we were too wasted too remember them all. I remember when they booed Grandmaster Flash. It wasn't because they were bad, it was just because we had been waiting so long for the Clash. <br /><br />One night, we got up so close, we were treated to Joe Strummer slobber. I really miss Mr. Strummer. Shame he died so long ago.<br /><br />Great music, great time to be young. Long live The Clash!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5206380617235471991.post-54578676069021564842013-04-16T15:01:27.379-04:002013-04-16T15:01:27.379-04:00I was there during construction, the first night a...I was there during construction, the first night and so on.
