Couldn't find a decent clip of the two in the same scene, but:

Lemmy and Shane McGowan in "Eat The Rich"

 

[Bryan]

Iggy in the trippy Johnny Depp Western, 'Dead Man.'  Iggy shows up about 1 minute and 30 seconds into this clip.

They were? I have'nt seen that movie since it came out. I can't think of anything The Clash were in , besides their own "Rude Boy" , "The Punk Rock Movie" , and various documentaries....The Ramones were in a total of two movies , The Cramps , in a total of one (Unless you count the Miriam - era "Gang" picture...I forget the title.).

The Pistols were in "The Punk Rock Movie" , they'd already split up before "The Great Rock'n'Roll Swindle". I forget if there was more than TV footage of the actual band , together.

The Standells were also on "THE BING CROSBY SHOW" AND I THINK A COUPLE OF OTHERS , NOT TO MENTION MOVIES LIKE "ZEBRA IN THE KITCHEN" , "GET YOURSELF A COLLEGE GIRL.".... They spread themselves pretty thin before they finally scored a hit...

Wayne County Ramblin' is a great flick featuring The Gories, Eddie Kirkland, etc. and guys like Tav Falco and Bill Peitsch (The Church Keys) acting in it. It's a good one, made by Dan Rose. I think you can buy it from his website.

Don't forget about the Guitar Wolf movies. The little parts that the band plays in those are pretty epic.

The Strawberry Alarm Clock were also in Beyond the Valley of the Dolls

A few favorites that come to mind

Circle Jerks in Repo Man Circle Jerks as lounge act

Devo, Redd Kross (Jeff & Steve MacDonald) and David Cassidy in Spirit of '76

Trailer for Spirit of '76

Lee Ving (amongst others) in Get Crazy Lee Ving as Piggy

Get Crazy also has Lou Reed, Bobby Sherman, Fabian, John Densmore and probably some others we're forgetting.
