Joe Strummer - White Man in Hammersmith Palais

Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros, live at the Roseland Ballroom in New York, in 1999.

Amazingly badass performance. Must see.

Sorry for the poor video quality - this video predates the broadband era so it inherently looks like garbage. Of course, I encoded the audio at 160kbps and used the AVC codec, so the file conversion is as good as it gets. If anybody has an upgrade, I'll encode it.

This concert also includes filmed performances of Safe European Home, London Calling, Rudie Can't Fail, Tommy Gun, and White Riot. I have posted those as well (go to my user profile).

"Turning rebellion into money.... if Adolph Hitler flew in today, they'd send a limosine anyway..." gut checking, absolut kick-ass music and bold, brave lyrics. There will never be another like them.

@sirdan180 He's shouting at the security and telling him to put a fan back into the crowd. The security must have been trying to throw the fan out. TRUE PUNK !!!
