Clash Public Library

I’m not sure whether Mick Jones was inspired or disgusted by his experience at the British Music Experience [1] (probably the latter). In any case, it has moved him [2] to set up a temporary “Rock N Roll Public Library” in some kind of office building under a highway in London. This is a great example of the do-it-yourself ethic [3] that often accompanies punk culture, and which some claim is central to it [4]. Sounds like a great excursion for the whole family to learn about every-day self-empowerment.
