Yeah the Clash was a serious part of messing with my head and sorting it at the same time. I was into them by the mid 80's which makes me a late bloomer as far the Clash go but better late than never. Quite into the mod scene too and in Australia both scenes had plenty of tartan in the garb but usually with the girls (oh those mini skirts!). Only the wankers had the tartan stove pipe pants covered in zips because they were so expensive!
Interesting question in this thread and I have wondered if there WAS a correllation between my punk self and Kilted self. It'd be the rebel part. Being bad but looking (and feeling) good while I'm at it.

Other bands worth a hats off:
P.I.L. DK's Bad Brains The Saints The Damned Black Flag (go Rollins!)
and for a new group (check 'em out Old Punks), Refused.
Sid Snot 'ere...
