Mick Jones Playing Clash for Hillsborough 96

This past Saturday in Liverpool ther was a benefit show for the Don't Buy The Sun Campaign that continues to seek justice for the Hillsborough 96.  The Hillsborough disaster occurred April 15, 1989 and wa sthe result of a human crush that killed 96 and injured over 700 other Liverpool Supporters during an FA Cup match against Nottingham Forest. The Sun a British Tabloid, ran a story the told of LFC fans attacking first responders, defiling bodies and more, none of which was true.

Legendary guitarist Mick Jones played the benefit and played a set of Clash songs which is rare to see.  The Clash were well known for being politically outspoken and supporting a cause like this Jones carries on the legend of their music for good and not for profit.  Check out some of the videos from the show below:
