Johnny Rotten is like butter
2008-10-02 05:55:00 I had heard a few weeks ago that Johnny Lydon aka Johnny Rotten was doing for an ad for Country Life Butter and let me tell the commercial is better and cheesier than I ever thought it could be. But I wonder what has happened to the state of Punk music that he is actually ...

I sat at the closed bar with Johnny Rotten. Children/Sex Pistols a heady co
2007-11-30 11:53:00 During my time at the children's assessment centre, before I moved to Sheffield's Moorside girls home, I went to the Sex Pistols children's Christmas party. It was held at Ivanhoe's nightclub in Huddersfield town centre, on Christmas Day 1977. The audience were mainly the children of the striking firemen. Ironically I was chosen to go with a social worker from the home because being middle class I needed to experience the other side, or that sort of thinking, most of the other kids in care had gone home for Christmas. Arriving at the party, small intimate venue, we were given plastic transparent folders with pink zips with sex pistols logo and small gifts inside as well as t-shirts and badges. In a 'what do you want for Christmas competition', compared by Johnny Rotten, I won a yellow skateboard, signed by the band. After the show when most of the other kids had left I sat at the closed bar with Johnny Rotten, he was interested in my life and we conversed easily. Somehow I t...

Johnny Rotten!
2007-10-31 22:00:00 Nice snippet here:So the wife is in a meeting at one of the major networks where she works and spots a gent outside having a moment.She did the hono(u)r able thing and told him I thought he was a cool guy. We're talking about the original cool guy, John Lydon, so after a brief conversation I own my first bit of pop music memorabilia!I recall many many moons ago when I first came to the USA I was having a beer with Sean Penn and some buddies in a private room in a San Francisco bar. That was my first 'star' meeting. Since then it hasn't really affected me - they're all just smoke and mirrors those star folk...But a musical icon. That's different.Check out his website for news about gigs and other gud stuff!Posted by Iain Hamilton McLean at http://werdwurka.blogspot.com

Sex Pistols: ?We?re in it for the money?
2007-09-26 14:06:00 Is that Bozo the Clown or some mentally challenged outpatient from the local mental institution? The original Sex Pistols line up of John Lydon, Steve Jones, Paul Cook and Glen Matlock are so hard up for cash that they are doing yet another comeback tour. When asked for a comment Johnny Rotten gave us this: “I’m ...

Spinner Interviews Johnny Rotten
2007-09-10 08:06:00 Once an anarchist ... John Lydon, aka Johnny Rotten, may now be 51 and 30 years removed from leading the Sex Pistols' cries for anarchy. But as Spinner found out recently when we had the pleasure of meeting up with Lydon in a room at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, the principles of his youth are still very much intact. Whether talking about the music business (he's not a fan), presidential politics (he weighs in on the leading candidates) or higher education (he's a strong proponent), Lydon let loose a barrage of opinions that, whatever your beliefs, should entertain.How does being a judge for the Bodog Battle of the Bands live series with all those young artists inspire you?Oh, I find it thrilling. It's enjoyable in the extreme. Some of them are not great. Others are really quite startling, but not every time. But it's live music and it's their own songs, wonderful: These are two things that the music business is ignoring and actually trying to stop. I don't see any record c...
