RIP Joe Strummer, Mikey Dread.

To seasidesea: I was at this gig also. But , the reason I'm posting this is because I was also at the Doors ('67 & '68) and Stones in '66. Saw Zepp Aug. '69 (Woodstock W/end, and then loaded into a van to catch the remainder of that show of shows).
My first experience with Convention Hall was Dave Clark Five in '65. Temptations, Dick Clark Caravan of Stars, The Who and so many more.
Convention Hall in the Summers of the '60's was a good place to be.

All the bright young things leave us far too early. RIP Joe.

The origin of this song is funny:
Joe Strummer: "Operation Julie was carried near Wales. They were manufacturating LSD. The only way for the cops to bust them was to put in some hippies of their own, who had to take acid repeatedly to mantain cover. The song is about that, imagining tripping policemen."

Mickey Gallagher. Played regularly with The Clash from '79 onwards. Was a member of Ian Dury & The Blockheads and one of the early incarnations of The Animals (I think....correct me someone if I'm wrong)
