well, in a way it was kinda right to sack him, coz drugs are...bad. and yeah. it was affecting the rest of the band, too.

I agree. But I really don't particulary care for Terry Chimes,cuz my clash book said he was just in it cuz he wanted to be famous,like he didnt care about the change and creativity thing.

I love this quote:
"And there's that one where we turned those little boxes upside down and you got cow noises and sheep noises...I listen to that nowadays and think 'God,and they sacked me for for taking drugs?!'"-Topper Headon

Just because this thread has been dead for ages:

It was after one of his shows at a pub that he was informed of the death of Clash frontman Joe Strummer. Obviously emotional, Headon said, "It's taken Joe's death to make me realise just how big The Clash were. We were a political band and Joe was the one who wrote the lyrics. Joe was one of the truest guys you could ever meet. If he said 'I am behind you', then you knew he meant it 100 percent."

Topper to me, seems to be the one who tells The Clash stories nowadays. Where Mick and Paul do interviews about the direction and image and fashion and music and whatever, Topper always gives us a good story.

My favourite one has to be when he wrote 'Rock the Casbah'. I'll never forget that one in Passion is a Fashion. 'The look on his face' when Joe chucks his set of lyrics behind him. tehe Joe seemed like a right ass to Topper sometimes.

I hate not having my camera with me! I always take an obsessive amount of photos cause it's a bit of a hobby, so I always keep my camera with me. But today I decided to use my new purse and I forgot to take my camera out of the old one! Sad

Billboards are great photo opportunities, and I'm compiling a book, maybe, of Che Guavera pictures from everyday life, just as a ode to pop art kinda thing, because he's become so iconic, and I missed another picture of him I could've taken. omgno

Oh well.

I alway take pictures when I see things music related (ex. the Stay Free maxi pad dispenser in the ladies room Con... someone made me delete it Molly) so I like having my camera with me, but yeah, I always seem to forget it when I want it.
