18. Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros - London's Burning

Live At The Bridgewater Palace Theatre, November 17th, 2002. The band would go on to play four more shows before Strummer's death a month later.

This concert is notable for the airing of several infrequently played songs: Coma Girl, Get Down Moses, 1969 (an Iggy & The Stooges cover), and a somewhat retooled Police & Thieves.

Also, there's nothing I can do about the compression problems with the video. Compression artifacts are inherent to the source, as is the mild high-end audio distortion.


Set List:
-Shaktar Donetsk,
-Bhindi Bhagee,
-Rudie Can't Fail,
-Bummed Out City,
-Yalla Yalla,
-Mega Bottle Ride,
-White Man In Hammersmith Palais,

We all sorely miss Joe, but that doesn't stop us from enjoying his music. He was a very important musician.
