Do you ever wonder what it's like to walk down the Kings Road these days? Me too! Well I'm here in London on vacation, so I decided to walk from Sloane Square to the World's End and see what it's like. I point out some very historic punk rock sites along the way. So take a look for yourself to see what the Kings Road looks like in the summer of 2024.

God I love your clips!!!! SO genuine, sweet and interesting! No RU-vid pretense or self-important delivery. You are a godsend. The segment where you were across the street from the old Roebuck and you were passionately filling us in on the very specific details of it's rockin' history, WHILE the usual crush of London traffic was happening feet from you and Joe was wonderful. You guys are the best. Full-on gridlock and lorry traffic and you just kept on going. LOVE LOVE LOVE!! Thank you both. I can't wait to see the next London clips. Gonna savor every second.

Thanks as always for watching my videos Tommy! I picked that corner because of the good view of the old Roebuck, but once the camera started I thought "this is a mistake. This corner is crazy busy!" But we kept going anyway. Hope you could hear my audio. I love the history of that place and I wanted to talk about it. I've got more London videos coming. Hope you like them. My next one is probably going to be about Sid. Thanks again!

Good afternoon, from New London, Connecticut here 👈🏼 I'm living vicariously through you in this London UK vlog for when I was a teenager I wanted to go and live in London and join a Rock band and meet Freddie Mercury 😢 saw Queen five times when I was a kid and had the biggest crush on Freddie, anyways I did live in the Bronx, NY when Sid was in NYC in 79 the last year of his life but never had the pleasure of meeting him ☹️ R.I.P Freddie and Sid and excellent vlog 😊❤

Hi 👋 Greetings from New Zealand. I was into Punk in the late 1970s as a teenager. I loved the Sex Pistols. I had the pleasure of seeing John Lydon fronting Public Image Ltd in the 1980s here in NZ. Enjoyed your video journey visiting the pub where the Sex Pistols all met. From Carl.

Interesting info about the Pheasantry! Now I wish I had gone inside. Oscar Wilde must have gone there. Living there in 1977 must have been exciting. I lived in a bedsit on Draycott Place for a couple of months in 1978. That street looks the same. Thanks again for watching!

Thanks for tuning in again! yes, I have read that many pubs are closing in London. That's so sad. Lloyd stayed at my condo in L.A. in the late 90's when he visited as we sold some of his clothing in our shop.My ex-boyfriend used to work at his shop on Kings Road and Kensington Market. Such a talented and legendary designer. We had a lot of fun with him in L.A. I had a fantastic time on this trip to London. I haven't seen it since the late 90's. I know it's changed a lot in 30 years, but I still love it. Especially Soho. We went to Soho often just to walk around and have Fish and Chips at Poppies or Hobsens.

Another goodie video. I once got banned from anymore school trips after we came down to London from Yorkshire, very early 80's, was supposed to visit a museum and Harrods but a pal and me buggered off down the Kings Rd. Walked from Sloane Sq to World's End but was very disappointed as it was full of pirate gear and new romantic kind of stuff, some of it being unpacked and put onto rails. Was very small and crooked inside. Anyway, I asked the woman there about the Pistols and she humoured us whilst telling the shop assistant what to do. Also asked where we were from and found it funny we had left the other kids and teachers. Later on found out it was Vivienne Westwood! Fair few punk rockers were still knocking about the area then too and also bought a Pistols cheesecloth from BOY. Happy days!
@WhyNotGoPlaces
@WhyNotGoPlaces Месяц назад
What a fun side trip! I never met Vivienne. That's interesting that Boy was still selling Pistols clothes, while Vivienne had moved onto the Pirate stuff. I loved their shop in 1977 when it was full of all the bondage suits, t-shirts and sweaters. What was interesting on this trip to the shop, and something I forgot to mention in the video, was that the shop in the old days was stuffed with clothes, whereas now it is very sparse. I wonder if they sell much now. Thanks for watching and sharing that memory!

Hi, the pub whose name I don't think you remembered was the Water Rat, over the road from Seditionaries in Milman's Street. It's no longer a pub, has had a couple of makeovers as restaurants. My missus worked in both the Roebuck and the Water Rat, but a few years after the Pistols hung around there. We live in Battersea, about a mile and a half from the KIng's Road, and despite the changes, it is still worth a stroll once in a while. You were right about the Pistols - they were a fantastic band. I've seen Lydon with PiL in the 80s but my only other brush with the band was drinking in the same bar (the Edgar Wallace) as Matlock a couple of years ago. All the best.
@WhyNotGoPlaces
@WhyNotGoPlaces 7 дней назад
Are you talking about the pub on the same side of the street as Seditionaries and very near Johnson's? I loved that pub. To be honest, I'm disappointed when a former pub becomes so upscale it doesn't feel like a pub anymore, but more of a high-end bistro. But it's still a great area for sure. If I lived in Battersea, I would visit Kings Road too. Thanks for watching!
@belmontbutty4143
@belmontbutty4143 7 дней назад
@@WhyNotGoPlaces Hi, thank you for replying as I love watching your Chelsea related and Pistols videos. Regarding the pub, if you walked back from Seditionaries towards Johnson's. On the opposite side of the road where the King's Road turns into the New King's Road, there is a side road called Milman's Street. At the top of the street, where it meets the New King's Road, there used to be a pub called the Water Rat that Lydon drank in. It was a tall, white painted building. As I mentioned, it has had a succession of makeovers as an eaterie. I agree about pubs being 'gentrified' but I suppose younger people may socialise in a different way from the likes of you and I when we were young. Thanks again for rekindling old memories. Cheers.

Very well said! I did feel like I was watching my old self a couple of times, or maybe my old self was watching me now - especially when I went by where I used to live in a bedsit near Sloane square. I was 20 years old when I moved to London the first time in 1978. Thanks for watching in North London! Btw, I walked all the way down the Kilburn High Road on the trip and visited where I lived near the tube station. Kilburn is much the same as in the 90s, but busier .

I went to the Ship and had a pint on this trip and I stood in the same spot where I "interviewed" Richard Jobson back in 1979. The place looks the same. Still kind of a rocknroll pub.

@@WhyNotGoPlaces Thank you M' (that is your initial, right?)....it's an honour to get a reply from you. I guess West London & the area close to the King's Road does feel sort of lovely....myself, I live in Tuffnel Park & some areas have become very rough, very crowded & well, without being hateful, very un-British! The Holloway Road for example (2 minutes from me on the bike) is pretty much a hell-hole as it is around the corner in the Seven Sisters Road. My view may be coloured by the fact that I'm now at an age where my buddies are dying-off & (in spite of what I said in my last comment) all this makes me actually think of leaving London & heading for Essex or Kent like most other interesting, older people might have done. I dunno tho'; it's increasingly hard for me to speak rationally about stuff! Love your videos & your energy & I also like commenting. I used to make documentary films & was going to make one about ordinary people, that are still living, & who'd seen the Pistols. I know of one French lady who lives in London who hung-out with them & who'd helped organise the Mont Martre Punk Festival or whatever it was called, in an arty, Paris suburb. Then there's Terry, a ticket tout who used to be outside most London gigs selling knock-off tickets & who I recently started to see walking around Camden which is again close to where I live. He's old now, about 75, but back in the day had pink hair, then green hair, one of the very first to dye it bright colours. He had gappy, rotten teeth, the teeth Lydon wishes he'd had, & appears in all sorts of Pistols gig, street & 430 footage! So those two, plus you, & there's a little doco'....trouble is tho', I view it all with a massive 'so what factor' now days & guess that's another reason I like you & your channel - you've got the passion still that I wish I had! Just rambling M', please excuse me.

My Mum and Uncle used to do business with Vivian Westwood and Malcolm McClaren (don’t quote me on this but I think they were making bondage trousers whole sale and would travel to London to sell them to various buyers), in their shop SEX on the Kings Road I remember running up and down the shop as a kid and the shop sign would have my sisters and I giggling I wouldn’t be surprised if we had bumped into each other at some point a young black kid with a big Afro. I could tell you some stories most of my friends at school were getting into punk at school and I was actually rubbing shoulders with their heroes at the weekends I didn’t realise until years later they would never have believed me anywhere. Because of my family business I would spend the next few decades rubbing shoulders with some of the biggest names in music and the arts in modern history and none of my friends knew. I tell my children and they find it hard to believe also. It’s so strange because my mother now only lives around the corner from Kings Road. My family had a stall in the Chelsea Antique Market Stefan Reynard was a friend of my Mums Do you remember a shop called “Flip” Long Acre, Covent Garden? And the crazy owner Wolfy my family were doing business with him as well. My mother is very much still alive and active even though we live in different countries we still keep in touch everyday. I’ll ask her for more information I know she has a mountain of info and knows all about the shops in this era I even remember being with her in BIBA and that was years before punk.

It would be interesting to get upstairs at 205 see if it could be figured out where they played, pretty sure Matlock was on bass too. Just down the room was where they released too at Sound Management Studios in the basement of the Furniture Cave, their first rehearsal space with Wally Nightingale, covering The Faces & The Who. It was there he stole Ariel Bender's Sunbird Special guitar. Motörhead rehearsed down there too.

Thank for watching my video! I have seen a video where he's on top of a double-decker bus going through London and shouting "Hello poor people!" Maybe the video you mention is different. I'll look for it.

@@lumpygravy52 Oh ok, they never did. That was all made up by a guy called Malcolm McLaren to sell his manufactured band the sex pistols. Check out a movie called The Great Rock N Roll Swindle. He explains it all there!

If you like punk you should try a band called Cockney Rejects! Its punk but real punk not middle class like the sex pistols who were all posh kids and students!

I have heard of that band, but I don't know their music.I'll give them a listen. I have to agree with the others here, the Pistols were very working class, especially Steve, Paul, Sid, and John. Glen may have been middle class, but I don't think he had a cushy upbringing. Anyway, thanks for watching the video!
