Love how John played anarchy for the crowd even though later on in life he brushed aside post punks like me ,here you see the real side of him , giving the punks their own show for a few minutes ,Top geezer 🍀🇬🇧👍🏼
He has a great voice can sing so high and not in tune but so good unique voice sings better than most with a great style he is an articulate guy and very intelligent who needs a system bullshit way to educate people when you can learn yourself reading and writing and even doing an open uni degree but john is a clever guy self taught in many ways he is an intellectual guy who proves doing things your own way in life can still succeed
I'm not sure I should be telling you this, but in Flowers of Romance I'm the first on stage to throw off a couple of stage invaders along with Martin Lydon who was Backline Road Crew with me for the tour.....Good Fun that tour was.
***** Yes it was they were only one of fifty acts I worked for and now trying to write a book of my life as A soldier a roadie/stage manager and long distance continental truck driver.......now i'm 68 nearly and I can say I have had a great life.
That book would be welcomed!! Let me know if/when you get it done. I would love to buy one!! I have tons of bios of musicians, and it is always great to tap into another perspective
John actually found this band in a Holiday Inn where they were doing cabaret and asked them if they wanted to tour as P.I.L as all of the previous members had either left or been kicked from the band.
@@brianmorecombe2726 They were the band playing in the hotel lounge, seriously. Go down the comments and there's someone related to one of the band commenting.
Still fascinating even if John is under the weather. WHY didn't the engineer put some gated reverb on those toms for the last song?? Would've been a great help.
Watched back in 1987 loved it it was a repeat shown on sunday huge sex pistol and a collector seen pistol six times reunion and pil seen them three times meet john lydon in leicester he is 5 11 tall and signed a ticket and his mate Rambo did to
If they had released a version of Not a Love Song that sounded more like this, it would have been an improvement...I think the session musicians are not bad but not keen on Atkins drumming here.
I’m downvoting it only because of the ad you put in the middle of the video. Why the fucking middle? It’s a music video, don’t do that. It is music period.
