Jon Stewart talking about City Gardens. For context, my friend and I were once patted down for weapons at the door, we were carrying weapons, because Trenton at night was very dangerous at the time, as was City Gardens. Our weapons were found in the pat down, and we were ushered inside, fully armed.

Today is the 46th anniversary of Joe Strummer and Don Letts going to Hammersmith Palais to see Dillinger, Delroy Wilson, Ken Boothe and Leroy Smart. The experience was chronicled in the Clash song “White Man in Hammersmith Palais.”

I recently saw the wonderful documentary “Rebel Dread” about Don Letts, which is worth seeking out.

Just in case you’d ever wanted to think less of your “heroes”.

(That said, this is a terrifically readable and engaging book, hilarious and annoying and sad, not to mention an exemplary use of narrative oral history)

And speaking of Gina Birch, I once saw The Raincoats twice on one day. Once at the Neal's Yard Rough Trade (which was in the basement of Slam City Skates at the time), and once at the Astoria 2. Both gone -- not forgotten.
