i saw the clash at shea stadium when i was a kid, in '82. they opened for the Who on their Long Live Rock tour. i also saw the Police there on their Synchronicity tour, same year.
there were many openers for both bands - clash, joan jett, david johannsen (before he became whatever name he went by...) and others.
[1] I saw those same tours in Phillie. I didn't respect the Clash back then, even though my rommies loved them. The Clash nearly got booed off the stage, 'cause we wanted The Who.
I finally got the Clash, but it was too late. I had seen them again before they split up. Very good music.

never did care for The Clash...
Great track. This one was key for me in "getting" the Clash. I liked them, but then I really paid attention.
