The Sex Pistols aren’t the only punk legends appearing at the Electric Picnic, with former Clash man Mick Jones informing Hot Press last night that his new outfit, Carbon/Silicon, will be playing the Friday night at Stradbally Hall.
“People keep telling us what a great festival it is, so we thought we ought to find out for ourselves,” Jones told us after the band’s barnstorming show in the Dublin Village with his former Generation X and Sigue Sigue Sputnik partner in crime, Tony James.
Having run through pretty much all of their The Last Post debut album, the chaps finished with a mash up version of The Equals’ ‘Police On My Back’, which The Clash re-worked on Sandinista!
