good thread tron
I love the clash and I can understand why paul Simonon had inspired you.
I think the person that inspired me to play was probably clive williams from ac dc.
I started on bass guitar first.
Also, bruce foxton and bruce watson ( from the jam and big country)
I dont think anyone really inspired me to play the guitar.
but for songwriting, I am inspired from many and many different styles.
Ac/dc, syd barrett, roger waters, john prine, johhny cash, the corries, iron maiden, the pogues, eric bogle and a few others that I just canny think of right now.
