i'm used the one who hated everyone and everything; sort of like a living vyvyan from the young ones.  now he doing interviews, appearing on the sirius gay channel, hosting shows, and caring about the miners from utah.  ego or no money?

acoording to this Wired interview (strangely enough, just came across it this morning), sounds like johnny is going for the "i'm changing the system from the inside" angle... by hosting the battle of the bands equivalent of American Idol?   Johnny Rotten Praises Battling Bands, Trashes Internet Liars (http://www.wired.com/entertainment/music/commentary/listeningpost/2007/09/listening_post_0903?currentPage=1)

everyone did.  i just think that it's nice of him to pop up once every 5-6 years and remind us why.
