In an "Exclusive" report in the Scottish Sunday Mail, It's rumoured that Bruce Springsteen will front The Clash when they appear at the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame in New York next month. It could be a nothing story (Sunday Mail has a reputation for them!) but then again...................? Transcript of report as follows cheers the noo Stevie Springsteen to front The Clash THE Clash are making an amazing comeback - with Bruce Springsteen as their new lead singer. They plan to storm the Rock `n' Roll Hall of Fame in New York next month as a tribute to Clash singer Joe Strummer, who died of a heart attack in December. The Boss is such a huge fan he volunteered to front the group at the awards bash. Word has swept the New York music scene that Springsteen will join surviving Clash members Mick Jones, Paul Simonon and Topper Headon. Their classic punk hits - such as Complete Control, I Fought The Law and Rock The Casbah - were a major influence on Springsteen. An insider told me: "The Clash were hoping to reform while they were inducted into the Rock `n' Roll Hall of Fame in March. Joe's sad death obviously meant plans were abandoned. "The group would like to pay a personal tribute. Springsteen would be the ideal replacement for a one- off performance. "Although they came from different musical backgrounds he and Joe weren't that different as singers. They both have that unique passion and energy." I hear Springsteen - who regularly listens to Clash records - would see it as an honour to follow in Joe's footsteps. The Boss's guitarist Miami Steve Van Zandt - a member of his E Street Band - plays Clash songs on his garage- punk radio show in New York. The insider said: "If this collaboration comes off it will be an epic rock moment." ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon Avalonians on tour 2002: http://helios.unive.it/~tcecilia/meetup.html US ticket sale info: http://www.thewebgal.com/roxymusic/ (updated weekly) ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 9 Feb 2003 08:12:49 EST From: Stevesiren@aol.com Subject: Re: [AVALON] Springsteen/Clash rumour In a message dated 2/9/03 12:08:32 GMT Standard Time, stephen.scott.1@blueyonder.co.uk writes: > In an "Exclusive" report in the Scottish Sunday Mail, It's rumoured that > Bruce > Springsteen will front The Clash when they appear at the Rock n' Roll Hall > of > Fame in New York next month. > I hope this isn't true, it'll be like Des O'Connor fronting Roxy Music..

Can't see him doing "Song For Europe" much justice either.....

Hey all! When I was growing up in Chicago, a weird guy would corner people on the train (what is now the Red Line, for those of you who care) and tell them how he used to be famous in the sixties: Gary Puckett. He would talk about how demeaning Oldies Tours were, how he hated being a "nostalgia" act, what assholes Flo and Eddie were on those tours. He even convinced a local college to mount a play based on his songs. Several years later I did a corporate gig with Flo and Eddie, Mark-Lindsey-of-Paul-Revere-and-the-Raiders (thats what he calls himself!), and Gary Puckett. He wasn't the same guy.....
