Like so many, the untimely death of Joe Strummer in 2002 snapped Bobble Tiki's spring: Paris Hilton gets to make a record, friggin' Dashboard Confessional has the top album today on iTunes, but legendary musician Joe Strummer dies. What the hell is that all about?
Bobble Tiki never met The Clash frontman, but documentarian Dick Rude had the pleasure. In fact, as Strummer's friend Rude filmed the last 18 months of his life capturing touching personal interviews and revealing Strummer’s candidly sharp wit and his innate storytelling charm in the 2004 film "Let's Rock Again!"
Shot in the 18 months leading up to Strummer’s death in 2002. The film begins with a montage of Strummer’s illustrious start as frontman for the iconic punk band The Clash and moves into his life years later as the documentary hits the road with Strummer’s new band The Mescaleros.
Rude will screen the film Wednesday, July 5, at the Experience Music Project in Seattle. The evening’s festivities will also include a screening of Dick Rude’s short film, "Xerox Babies," which surveys the first five years in the Los Angeles punk scene. Rude will stay for a Q&A session after the film. 
Wednesday, July 5, 7:30 p.m., free, JBL Theater, Experience Music Project, 325 Fifth Ave. N., Seattle. â€" Bobble Tiki
