I remember a long time ago (2007 think) going down to Brixton to see the Sex Pistols. Was not one of the best gigs I have ever been to, was just a load of old men. Was about as punk as Cliff Richard. Glad I went though.
.**********
Of course the Sex Pistols gig in Manchester in 1976 changed things for ever and without that gig I wouldn't have met half the friends I know now, even though they were born about ten years after that gig! Who knows maybe it was just a legend not not many gigs actually end up having an entire book written about it.

A lot of the punk bands I like actually pre date the sex pistols, but the Sex Pistols are the band that made the scene popular and got other bands like Joy Division playing.
