No way!
*goes to check*
Adios, Joe.
Seventies punk band The Clash, has died aged 50.
A spokesman for Strummer, real name John Graham Mellor, said the singer died at home on Sunday.
A post mortem examination is to be performed on Monday to confirm the cause of death, which a friend of the singer said was a heart attack.
Before the Madness Gig at London Arena last night they played a selection of videos highlighting many famous Brit bands of the last 25 years. They included London Calling, and also the Ian Dury and The Blockheads. During the show they played the video to the last song Ian Dury sang on as well.
The way the music industry is at the moment, we won't see many more artists to the calibre of these guys.
