Brian Setzer playing Eddie Cochran in La Bomba. The spelling is intentional.

Lou Reed in Get Crazy and (very briefly) Permanent Record (or are we talking about them playing "real-life" musicians?)

"Permanent Record." A so-so film with some great Joe Strummer songs on the cassette, which is in the carrying case that's in the backpack that's strapped to that walker with the "This Is Not A Fugazi Sticker" sticker stuck on it.

I never did find my CD of "Earthquake Weather." Holding out for the chance that it ended up getting boxed up with some old books and it'll turn up some time or other.
