The Resume

    (July 5, 1956- )
    Born in London, United Kingdom
    Drummer for the Clash (July-November, 1976 ;January-April, 1977; May, 1982-February, 1983), Cowboys International (1979), Generation X (1980-81), Hanoi Rocks (1985), the Cherry Bombz (1986) and Black Sabbath (1987-88)
    After leaving music, became a licensed chiropractor

Why he might be annoying:

    On the Clash's debut album, he was billed as 'Tory Crimes.'
    He said about the Clash, 'It was like joining a cult. I wanted to enjoy playing music - and they wanted to suffer.'
    He is a vegetarian.
    He almost missed his first gig with Black Sabbath because of arm pain from excessive bowling (three hours worth) before the show.

Why he might not be annoying:

    His reason for first joining the Clash: 'I wanted the loudest, fastest, most energetic band going, and they were that.'
    When the Clash were named to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, he spent much of his acceptance speech praising fellow Clash drummer Topper Headon.
    His bowling-induced arm pain was successfully treated by Black Sabbath's chiropractor, which triggered his interest in the field.
    He said, 'People say how can you prefer treating patients to being on stage in front of 100,000 people? But if you can get someone healthy, there's a satisfaction in that which is much more profound.'
