Strummer Movie. From FMQB
Music documentary specialist Julien Temple (The Filth And The Fury, Glastonbury) tells MTV that his next film will focus on the late, great Joe Strummer of The Clash. Temple said he planned to make a movie "about his life. Not so much about the Clash, although they were obviously a huge part of that. It's a film about Joe, about the man, the story of his life, the music before the Clash and after the Clash - as well as about the Clash." Temple has hours of film already, much of which he shot with Strummer before his death in 2002.

Title is from PG's "In Your Eyes". If for some reason you don't have the 11:34 minute live version do yourself a favor. Lift up those Boomboxes and do your best Dobler. Can you believe Crowe wanted to use Idol's "to be a lover" instead? Crazy.

You are a posting fool!...how do you come up with so much content?

You shame me with your family+job and STILL find time to post this much.

Much respect.

As far as my posts it has to do with my work...mostly. It is a way for me to get them all together.

Now the Metallica thing. I can't recall the last time I listened to them but you've got to admit that "Master of Puppets" was and still is awesome dude. I think I included that bit because I hope its true and can't wait to see what RR does to the M. Even if he gets them back to their "Black" days that would be welcomed. Remember the Beastie Boys were a Punk group before RR so...

Hey, don't get me wrong...Metallica '83-88' was great, they are just kind of Spinal Tappish now.

I joined Last FM but have yet to create a station..I just listen to suggested music.
