Shock announcement!!!!
In early June it was revealed Sex Pistols were coming back.
Steve, Paul & Glen without John. New vocalist, Frank Carter will be stepping in.
2 Gigs were planned as charity events to raise funds for the Bush Hall venue, which has been threatened with closure.
Steve & (more so) Paul have always stayed true to their roots & wanted to help out. The first 2 nights sold out immediately, so a third & final night was added - this also sold out in minutes.
Social Media/the internet had the usual bores commenting about without John its not Sex Pistols. Even though the band was actually Steve & Paul's creation. I do agree that John was the icing on the Sex Pistols cake. Fans are divided.
I dont remember any drama when Steve & Paul did the Generation Sex gigs last year.
I will be at the 3rd & final night, so I will provide my thoughts & opinions after the event.
If anyone records all 3 or any single one of the gigs please send a copy my way to share with everyone else.
