I love this story

[louiscfc93]

@k1ssinger Taxi Driver is punk as fuck

[pazuzu94533]

@johnsain What a puzzling comment. The Clash were fans of Martin Scorsese's. They used some of Travis Bickle's dialogue from "Taxi Driver" in the song Red Angel Dragnet.

Dork.

He really should have documented the occasion.

@johnsain Dude, The Clash did a cameo on The King of Comedy, a 1983 Scorsese film. I can't see why they would lose credibility for meeting a hollywood director, they probably did drugs. Fun times.

Great man

@johnsain If their fans would have been pissed off by the news that would be their problem. Nothing wrong with Scorsese. No point hating him because he's not punk.

@johnsain Yeah what the hell are you talking about? Joe dressed like Travis from Scorsese's movie Taxi Driver. Nothing wrong with Scorsese, he makes awesome movies about real shit instead of manufactured worthlessness.

Go back to idolizing Eminem and Metallica you pathetic poser.
