GEEEEEEZ....  ........I hope they do some smaller shows too...  ......I don't want to pay that kind of money, plus the travel overseas expense, and then hardly be able to SEE them on the stage  |

According to John's site: "Looks like someone let the cat out the bag, but yes, the Sex Pistols will probably be headlining some major festivals next year. Sweden and Isle of Wight have already been announced. Which is news to Mr Rotten More talks are underway, and as soon as you can hear it from the horses mouth, you will.
Until then as John would say, you can peace off…
. "Sounds like they are jumping the gun saying this Isle of Wight show is definite. But good to know that they are talking about more shows. Maybe there is some hope for shows in the US. Joan |

Looks like it is official. According to John's site: "On Virgin Radio this morning John confirmed the Sex Pistols will be headlining the Isle of Wight Festival on Saturday, June 14th 2008.
There's a difference between things being announced, and things being confirmed. i's have to be dotted, and t's need to be crossed. Now they are. Stay tuned…
Tickets go on sale tomorrow, December 10th, at 0900 (GMT). See the official Isle Of Wight Festival website for more information." The link to the Virgin Radio interview with him this morning: www.virginradio.co.uk/djs_shows/shows/breakfast/features/john_lydon.htmlJoan |
