Meeting Joe Strummer 1 Year, 3 Months ago Karma: 0  
I’ve got tickets to see Meeting Joe Strummer in Southampton in November. It won an Edinburgh Festival First Winner in 2006 and is described as a passionate punk comedy about attitude, friendship and celebrity – and a celebration of a man who set the agenda for a generation.

With some really loud Clash music, I’m looking forward to seeing this, just wondered if anyone saw it last year or whilst it has been on tour?

nope but I saw the documentary "The Future is Unwritten" which was excellent.
Let me know what the play is like, please

Saw this on Friday evening and would recommend it. Minimal set with no effects, just some great Clash tracks, (could have been a bit louder though!).

The play chronicled the lives of two estranged friends back from one of Strummer's last gigs before his death in late 2002, through the Thatcher era when they marched to back the nurses and the fire-fighters, to when they met at the Rock Against Racism gig. Quite funny too, especially the air guitars and lip-synching.

At the interval, four people in the row in front of us left, one said,
“I have never heard anything so frightful in all my life”. Brilliant
