Also the fact is the Sex Pistols existed before Rotten and after.
please explain what they were before? They didn't record anything or have any impact until JR joined
Now you can say they aren’t THE Sex Pistols but I actually think it will be cool…
let's be clear, I am going and excited
It’s true that Rotten was the change agent but you can’t discount the songs. We know Jonesy and Matlock were important. We also know it was Jonesy’s band in a way it never was Rotten’s band.
I do think jonesy is a big part of the sound, but he wasn't doing anything revolutionary remotely with his style/sound
I really think we are lucky Lydon is out cause he just couldn’t sing these songs. Already in 1996 he was struggling and that was nearly 30 years ago! He is better suited for singing the PiL stuff.
facts
that show in 96 at George Mason kinda sucked IMO
but that show at the 9:30 in 2003 was awesome and yes johnny was not able to deliver the vocals as he did 25 years earlier
one of my favorite shows at the club
