Michel Drucker French TV show, Paris

The Clash performed on the Michel Drucker French TV show. Michel Drucker is a popular French journalist and TV host, born on September 12, 1942, in Vire, France. He has been on screen for various shows and different networks, both public and private, since 1965.

After the performance, The Clash went to drink at "La Coupole," an "existentialist cafe," and finished the night at the Gibus Club.

A French fans eye view

After the gig, the CLASH went to drink at “La Coupole”, an “existentialist cafe” and finished the night at the Gibus Club.

They saw the local band ASPHALT JUNGLE which they had just mentioned in their “Paris is singing” version. For the TV show, the scenery was “very” punk with flying pterodactys!

This TV show was produced by “Un sur Cinq (1 out of 5)”, a social and culturel broadcast. Freddy Hausser produced the “Pop News” rubrique and presented the CLASH with Phillipe MANOEUVRE (who wrote “Cheap trill” in Rock’n’Folk magazine).

The CLASH played “London’s burning” at the sound check but the cameramen didn’t want to continue. They striked cos the CLASH played too loud. Just one man accepted to film. So, it was a fixed and large plan. 15 min. later, the CLASH played “Complete control”, then “1977”(cut) and it was over.

Tranlation: Wednesday 28 the Clash make "1 out of 5" with Freddy Hausser. I decide to go to the set of Antenne 2 where I find Fredo. Bernard Rhodes, the band's manager, asks me to play a reggae tape on my camera. It sets the mood. The show is not going too badly, except that the technicians constantly want us to lower the sound. Clash plays three songs. In the evening, I find Yves Adrien and we go to the Hotel des Clash. They want to go to dinner. We take them to the Pizza, near the hole in Les Halles. Then, party at He. fl.h. All the punks are there. We stay WI little, then everyone found at the Gibus. Thursday 29 concert d. Clash at the Bataclan. I stay during the cortcert backstage with Marc. On stage the band plays as well as usual.
