Afternoon Links: Fred Armisen Is Now a Part of Clash History


You know when you feel like you’ve got a pretty good fake accent down, then you meet someone who has that real accent and you’re all sweaty and terrified because you know you’re a sham and they’re going to rip you apart as soon as you say half a sentence? Fred Armisen does the exact opposite of that in this Funny or Die clip, sitting down with the Clash’s Paul Simonon and Mick Jones in character as Ian Rubbish, a punk-obsessed Brit and stylistic plagiarist. The gents wind up in a spontaneous jam sesh, because “that’s what punk’s all about, innit? Not planning nuffink.”
