Mick Jones to Play Clash Songs For First Time in 29 Years
The singer is among those playing a series of shows for the Hillsborough Justice Campaign...
On April 15 1989, 96 people died after a human crush at Sheffield Wednesday's Hillsborough football ground.
The Hillsborough Justice Campaign supports survivors and is fighting for the truth of what happened to be released.
The Justice Tonight shows in aid of the charity will also feature The Farm and Peter Wylie plus a surprise guest at each venue - including members of Primal Scream at the London date.
It will be the first time Mick Jones has toured performing Clash songs live since 1982.
"I'm totally honoured to be part of something so meaningful and I hope that we can do some good," he commented.
