Joe Strummer mural unveiled in London

A Joe Strummer mural was unveiled in London on June 13th. Gary Loveridge came up with the idea after seeing a mural of Strummer in New York City.  Artist Emma Harrison eventually put Loveridge's idea into motion and the rest is history.  On Thursday night the mural was unveiled in a (sadly windy) ceremony, but the turnout was great and was attended by Strummer's ex-bandmate Mick Jones. Check out video from the unveiling below and read more about how the mural came about here.
