    I can't believe it. This is such a great loss to modern music. Strummer and the Clash were so important, to me and to many many others.

    There was talk of a probable Clash reunion at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction - I guess that won't happen now.

    What a horrible piece of news. And I can't even go listen to my CLash albums, they are all in Ohio.

    <sigh>

    im reading Dee Dee Ramone's autobiography now.

    its amusing. its pretty poorly written but some of the stories are great. like being in london booting up coke with sid in a bathroom and sid using puke/piss toilet water in his blood-crusted needle and john cale walking in asking if anyone has anything.
