Minstrel Boy (Cover) Joe Strummer

I had moved to NYC in early 2001. After the attacks we were all amiss. I worked downtown and we dily were at ground zero assisting the rescue crews.

Having always been a fan of the 101ers and The Clash, I had never gotten to seen Joe Strummer. I finally got the chance to see him before he died at Irving Plaza on October 10th 2001. The city was still a mess and they almost cancelled the show. He walked out on stage and said "This is for all of our friends in New York" They then proceeded to play the full 13 minute cover of Minstrel Boy.

It was truly a magical night that The City really needed.
