Revolution Rock: The Clash In New Zealand
Celebrating the 30th anniversary of The Clash's 3-city tour of New Zealand in February 1982.
This was the first tour by a British punk band since the movement began 6 years earlier. New Zealand had one of the most active punk scenes in the world and fans were more than ready to welcome The Clash when they finally arrived. Among those fans were future TV presenter John Campbell, radio personality Martin Devlin, filmmaker Jonathan King and others who share their memories of the historic tour that helped shaped the sound of New Zealand music. (The Clash pictured right in 1983)
