Joe Strummer

Hey guys, I think we all know what day it is, and who left us. Joe Strummer born, John Graham Mellor, has sadly passed on 13 years ago today. For those who haven’t known Joe personaly, have been affected as well. He shaped us to be who we are today, and helped us overcome some of the more challenging parts in our lives. He helped realize there’s more to life than being sad and wallowing in pain, hoping the days would end. He helped us realize who we wanted to be in our lives. Joe had a lot of light to him, and some darkness too, but he overcame the hard parts. He tried his best, thought about quiting, but didn’t. I think that’s what we all love about him. Aside from the music. He helped us realize who we are supposed to rebel against, and who to keep close. He helped us realize that there’s evil in the world, but there’s still some good in the world too. I think we can al agree that Joe was a great guy. Rest In Peace, Joe. You’re truly loved, and truly missed.

“…opening sequence of Julien Temple’s excellent documentary on Joe Stummer, “The Future Is Unwritten”. Over black and white video footage of Strummer in the studio, preparing to lay down the vocal track of “White Riot”, one of The Clash’s first recordings, we hear an american voice, a TV producer speaking to Joe, in what we now know were his final years. The producer asks Strummer if he would like anything run under his name on the screen. Strummer doesn’t miss a beat:

Joe Strummer: “I’d like you to write ‘Punk Rock Warlord’, with WARLORD being one word”
