Well, then, Happy International Clash Day to all of you fellow lovers of the Clash.

I think I was aware such day existed, but I never remembered when it was. It even has it's own Wikipedia entry!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Clash_Day

I love this line: "International Clash Day is celebrated on February 5, unless February 5 is a Saturday or Sunday. International Clash Day is never celebrated on a Saturday or Sunday."

That said...February 5th was on Monday - so how come International Clash Day is now on the 7th?

This is pretty great, too (also from the Wikipedia entry): "Hey, this is Jay Inslee, Governor of Washington, the greatest state in the nation. In this state, we celebrate Diversity, Tolerance, and Compassion for all. We stand up with our global brothers and sisters with one voice and resist the small minds that attempt to divide us. We are proud to be the home of creative souls throughout our musical history, from Hendrix to Nirvana. And that's why we join with KEXP in proclaiming February 7th International Clash Day and celebrating our role in the history of rebellious rock and roll. Now let's rock the Casbah."

You just know his favourite Clash song is "Train in Vain."

Um, don't you think it's RTC seeing that he steadfastly supported the Iraq war?

No, Blair would go full SRP with the Clash. He'd also call it "Stand By Me."

I remember when ICD was on the 5th. In 2016, it was on the 7th, which was a Sunday. I dunno.
