Blitzkrieg Bob Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 Following their well received Lemon Tree show at the start of the year, the best Clash tribute band in the UK return to Aberdeen for another high-octane set.Here's what to expect; "So it was on to the 3rd gig in as many nights,this time at The Cafe Drummond to see Clash tribute act The Clashed. I have to say I had mixed feelings about a tribute act to a band that made such an impact on the music scene all those years ago but maybe I could wander down memory lane and listen to some great songs over a few pints of the dark stuff. I arrived early to a half full venue and watched it fill up with a wide spectrum of different people,some of which won't have been around when punk was at its height. The Clashed hit the stage around 11 o'clock with a barn storming opener, English Civil War, followed by London's Burning, I Fought The Law, Tommy Gun, London Calling and every other Clash classic one after another. Was I in a time warp? Was it 1977 (they played that too), the front was a full on mosh pit. I have to give credit to The Clashed - they not only sound like the Clash but they recreate the same ball busting energetic show on stage as Strummer,Jones and co excelled at."Support comes from local punk OAP's 16 Again.Check out http://www.theclashed.co.uk/ and http://www.16again.co.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
