As an aside, has any band ever sold out more than the sex pistols?

the stone roses are about to ?

Hype it up baby...

I had a chuckle when I read this. Talentless Tit Lydon had already said a big NO to a spot on the olympic/Jubilee gig and then lo and behold out comes the CD....

He never was a rebel, that takes intelligence.

is that the 20 year old talentless lydon who wrote the lyrics to god save the queen ? and made metal box with pil ?

The Sex Pistols were manufactured by Malcolm McLaren. I saw a quality quote about Lydon that likened him to a punk Justin Bieber and it's true!

Having seen the Pistols at Cub Lafayette in Wolverhampton (or SPOT's, as they were billed), all I know is that they were sooo.. good and sooo... exciting.

I love how, 35 years on, they still get this kind of reaction

I quite like the thought of the youngsters listening to God Save The Queen during Jubilee week. It's a belting record too:thumbup:

I'm not sure Mama Cass or Demis Roussos sold out, apart from to the pie shop. Burl Ives was a different case entirely, reporting loads of US folk singers to the McCarthy Commission as commies. Mind you, a good case could be made for Aphrodite's Child having sold out. Apologies for being a geek - I'll get my anorak.

Ah! I get it now, the best sell out I remember showed up in the early 80s. I went to see the 'Angelic Upstarts' at the quayside in Newcastle in 1978, needless to say there was trouble. As well as bringing a severed pigs head on stage (with a coppers helmet on), they had an entourage of skinheads wearing wet suits covered in swastikas chucking full cans of lager at people. BEST of all they had tatoos............. 'Adam Ant'. Some years later watching TOTP, all the teeny boppers bouncing about to Prince Charming, I couldn't help but chuckle

:w00t:

Oh yes, Vangelis didn't sell out, but did the Buggles!!!!

...and how could I have forgotten Altered Images. Supporting Siouxie & the Banshees to mindless disco in no time flat. Where's Clare Grogan now? And, for that matter, where are the Fat Tulips? I knew I shouldn't have taken my anorak off. Sorry...

Genesis. Brow-furrowing prog to bland Euro-pap. Eeeuuurrggghhh. Collins should be locked up!
