The Justice Tonight tour was designed to promote the Hillsborough Justice Campaign, set up by the friends and family of the 96 people who lost their lives in the Hillsborough soccer disaster in 1989. The human crush at the FA Cup semi-final between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest remains the deadliest stadium-related disaster in British history and one of the worst ever international soccer accidents.
The 6-date tour kicked off December 1 in Cardiff, and wraps up December 10 in Glasgow.
As if the thought if Jones playing Clash tracks live after all these years wasn’t cool enough, the guitarist was joined by Clash bassist Paul Simonon at the tour’s London stop on Thursday, and the two rocked some of the band’s classics.
Jones reunited his post-Clash band, Big Audio Dynamite, earlier this year for a tour.
