      I love the Steve Jones bits, too. So freaking funny! Did you see the SNL skit where Fred plays a dad reprising his role in a punk band/homage to his daughter’s wedding? I would actually listen to “Fist Fight in the Parking Lot” in any playlist. Dave Grohl is great in it. Up the aging punx! 🤣💖
      With EVERY project Fred does (I’m just gonna call him “Fred,” because we’re hella tight, but not really. Or ever. I’m just lazy.) I’m especially dying when he taps into music genres!! He actually KNOWS the music, which makes it special and a nod to those of us who get it…”as well.” 😁

    Mick Jones looks like Bob Dole now. Cool. Paul Simonon looks like an older, seedier Paul Simonon. The Clash burned through my teenage imagination, I will always love them. They always had a sense humor even when they were storming the record industry's barricades they never took themselves too seriously, for the most part.

    My sister was M3, the Punk Rock Queen of the Cass Corridor, keyboardist/backing vocals/whips & chains in seminal Detroit punk bank The Impaler, and 💯% the most punk spirit that ever raised hedes in its streets. She gave me The Ramones Rocket to Russia & The Clash’s Combat Rock for Christmas (1987-I was 10), and my changed life was changed forever🤘
    Mostly through Steve Albini she was always a fan of great Chicago punk bands-like Fred’s band (Trenchmouth)-as well.
    I’ll always feel my father (bass; Springwell) and sister to be the greatest father/daughter rockers from the Midwest in rock n roll history.
    I’d say Rest In Peace my queen of a sister, but I know if there’s an afterlife where you’re happy and doing exactly what you want/love, then you’re obviously playing out tonight in a kick ass band. Prolly Joe and Andy Gill on guitar, Dee Dee on bass, Keef Moon on drums, and Darby Crash sharing vocals with Lux Interior. Somethin like that.
    So Rock TF on forever, dear sis. Love you so much 💜 🤘
