The Sex Pistols

Tuesday, March 25th, 2008

The Sex Pistols formed in England in 1975, and though they were only together for two years, they put their stamp on mainstream music, big time.  A bigger credit might go to The Pistols for their considerable contribution helping establish an independant and underground music scene.  They also knew how to stir it up a wee bit too.  The Sex Pistols were banned all over England.  The group was unpredictable, violent, rude, raw and nihilistic.  After releasing one album in 1977, the band headed over to the U.S. for a tour in January of 1978.  The tour lasted 14 days. Singer Johnny Rotten left the band after their show at San Francisco’s Winterland Ballroom on January 14 and returned to New York.  In 1996, to celebrate their impending twentieth anniversary, the Sex Pistols reunited, with original bassist Glen Matlock taking the place of the deceased Sid Vicious.
