Clash news is always a welcome thing. Mick Jones is about to take Clash songs on the road. Oddly enough he is doing so on the eve of the 10th anniversary of the passing of Joe Strummer. Rather than tribute your old band, would it not be a better thing to tribute the legend or is that how its done?

Shakira rocketed on to the pop charts with her sultry moves and pop happy beat. Although, most known for her contributions to Latin music this beautiful yet very smart performer criss crosses boundries effortlesly

Fearless Records annual “Fearless Friends Tour”, reaches out to some communities but not all. I wonder why they have such limited locations for such a noble idea.
