About this Event
A walking tour taking in the key locations associated with Joe Strummer and The Clash's West London. Starting at Ladbroke Grove station we wind our way through W10, W11 and W9 we chart the development of Joe Strummer from Woody Mellor, hippie, squatter and pub rocker through to stardom with the Clash and spokesman for a generation. We check out pubs, recording studios, gig venues, former squats, homes and iconic photo/film locations. You can also turn up on the day.

About the organiser:
Aidan McManus, founder of Flipside London Tours, is an award-winning tour guide, historian, broadcaster, and curator of music-related film events. West London-born of Irish heritage, he was a teenage participant in the city’s early punk scene and later its soul, 2-Tone and rave cultures. His first tour guiding experience came in San Francisco, where he created walks exploring the city’s bohemian subculture, literature and music. Returning to London, he went on to research and build critically acclaimed walking tours on subjects as diverse as gangland Soho, David Bowie’s early years, and the social history of West London. He served as a consultant to Westminster Council for its 2025 Joe Strummer memorial event, and he has been a featured commentator in BBC and Sky Arts documentaries and on Radio London’s Robert Elms Show. He is the host of Flipside London Radio, a fortnightly Portobello Radio programme focusing on books, music, history and youth culture.
