album, and toured with the Talking Heads. She moved to London and became part of a new scene and became connected with The Clash, eventually marrying Clash
bassist Paul Simonon, touring with them and joining The Clash on stage many times.

Concert Shirts and the Ones That Got Away
On this episode I talk about My Favorite Concert Shirts and the Ones That Got Away. Over the years I amassed quite a collection of concert shirts, at quite an expense. I then gave them away in one fell swoop to a pair of identical twin teens who probably hadn’t heard of half the bands. I was wearing concert t-shirts before they were even born!
