Friday Night Mash Up

As regular visitors to this blog have come to realize, I don't just blog about comics, I blog about trash culture in general and a constant refrain of mine is just how anodyne rock n roll has become.

Anoraks will doubtless note the presence of a certain Mr. Mick Jones (of The Clash fame).
