Surprised that no one mentioned that in addition to SISOSIG, a bit of “This Is Radio Clash” is played during an episode in season 2.

Also, in an interview w/ Charlie Heaton, who plays Jonathan Byers, he says that Winona Ryder gave him a Clash tour t-shirt. Wonder which shirt.

“I can't remember how far [into filming] we were, but she was like, ‘Charlie! I got you a present!.’ And because Jonathan's really into the Clash, [she gave me] a Clash tour t-shirt. An original she got when she had gone to see them when she was younger. She was like, ‘I used to go and watch the Clash a lot and I got this shirt, but I want you to have it.’ So that was such a special present. I still have it -- I've got it on me.”

“I would wear that everywhere. I found it kind of funny though that the Clash was Jonathan’s favorite band. Are you a big fan yourself?”

“No. I know the Clash, but no. Not really, ha.”

The last time the Clash played in the US, Winona was 12 years old, lucky to have seen them if that's the case.
Yeah, probably not a tour tee.
i saw them when i was 12, didn't see winona there though
‘I used to go and watch the Clash a lot...’

A lot?
Sounds like it

"I just had to retire an old Clash T-shirt from the first time I saw them in 1980 because it was so incredibly thin and just disintegrating. But I ended up framing it. I inherited my fathers ‘archivist’ gene, so it’s really hard for me to let go of things."

Also a big Replacements fan apparently. She has an interesting background/childhood, so I'm buying it.

Hmmm. If she saw them in 1980 she would have been 8 years old. Now I've heard of progressive parenting but this just sounds a bit of a stretch.

And I'm not sure they would have sold tour t-shirts in little girls' sizes.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

If she was wearing it up until recently, as she asserts I'm that interview, it would have to have been an adult-size shirt, no?

Starting to go see the clash at age 8 sorta seems a stretch, although my parents definitely took me to concerts as a kid so I dunno. It would be a peculiar thing to arbitrarily lie about, but good for her if she's concocted a reasonably elaborate fake background of her life.

Yeah. VH, jr. has already seen Blondie, Violent Femmes/Echo and the Bunnymen and the Pixies. So it's not outside the realm of possibility. And her parents were probably far cooler than I, so I believe her.

The young man who plays Dustin actually has the rare condition his character mentions in season 1. The Duffer Brothers wanted to include it.
