I saw The Clash in 1983, at the Aragon Brawlroom in Chicago. Best show of my life.

I saw The Clash again in 1983 in Wichita Falls, TX of all places. I believe that was the Combat Rock tour. Little Charlie Sexton (as he was known at the time) opened for them; you wouldn't believe all the cowboy hats and boots in the audience. It was the strangest concert I ever attended. Mick Jones looked straight above the cowboy hats and appeared less than pleased that he was in that venue. It sorta reminded me of Spinal Tap, when they play the Air Force Ball!!

I would have killed to see the Pogues! ( :

The Clash and Charlie Sexton was an odd combination.
