Punker Chewing Gum

He's blowing a bubble, has spike hair, and is wearing an earring. God save the Queen, the fascist regime. Which some pedant pointed out was a contradiction in terms. Like fractal and art. But so what, if it works anyway. Punk was a good send up of the dinosaur acts. Yes, ELP, Pink Floyd, all those acts Rotten disliked so much. At least his stuff didn't sound like that. Rotten would introduce Pistol's songs by saying things like, "What's it like to have bad taste?" and, "Another tuneless racket..." The joke was on them too. No future, no future, no future, for you. Well, they did ok on their nostalgia tours, which at one time they swore they'd never undertake (Wot we gunna do, dig up poor Sid?). Instead, they dug up the original bassist they'd sacked, allegedly for being a Beatles fan, and they put out a DVD which I saw recently. They've really mellowed a great deal. Almost personable now (though here and there, Rotten does pour scorn - he's not quite dead yet, he'll have ya know). There's a segment where Steve Jones demos his licks. He looks genuinely happy that anyone would be interested, but they really weren't bad at all, and those Marshalls, well you can hardly miss with those. Actually, the best music to come out of the 70s was... DISCO.
