I got into John's music/him because.....

Kathy,

Thanks - maybe John & the guys will decide they had so much fun in the UK that they'll want to come to play Pennsylvania in 2008 - give us another chance. [Then I'll be trying to convince Bob to go with me rather than convince my parents to allow me to go.]

Here's a great website full of rare photos, interviews, press clippings, and other information on John and the boys - from back in the day to '96 - reminds me why I got into John, Steve, Paul, and Sid (ang later Glen):

There's nobody who sounds like John at all, he was the first to put out "that sound". Many have tried to duplicate it (and have failed) which makes him a one-of-a-kind in my book.

And the music he has put out is greatly produced, really well done. I could listen to his albums forever and never be bored listening to it.

And I love love love the way he rolls his rrrrrrr'sssss. Delicious!

I became a Pistols fan first and then became a fan of Johnny after that.I thought he was really cute the first time I ever saw him, however I've only been a serious Pistols fan for a year.

Well, I've always been into anime and manga (japanese cartoons and japanese comics) and at that time I was reading a manga called NANA (I'm still reading it, it isn't finished yet), this manga it's about two girls that share the same name "Nana", but one of the Nanas caught my attention, she was a big fan of The Sex Pistols and her boyfriend was a BIG fan of Sid, he was dressed like him and he was even a drug addict And in many interviews with the author she claimed to be a Sex Pistols fan which led her to include them in her manga.
I knew a few things about The Pistols (just the Sid and Nancy's story) but never had the chance to listen to their music or been able to see any pictures or videos of them and now I was very curious about them because of the manga and because on top of that there was a song hitting the charts here in my country which mentioned The Pistols, so I managed to get three songs: God Save The Queen, Anarchy In The U.K. and Liar and I thought they were GREAT I remember me listening to these three songs again and again and again later was all NMTB (my mom was yelling at me all the time: "Why don't you stop listening to that noisy music already???... It's awful" she would say to me everyday ) I was soooo mesmerized by John´s voice already and then I got "The Complex World of Johnny Rotten" and I fell completely in love with him , started to gather information about him, I discovered PiL, loved it as much as The Pistols although it was very different from them but I thought it was amazing and the rest it's history I found him very attractive, cute, intelligent, original, sexy GORGEOUS ;D ... sigh... and now I am obse... an enthusiastic of John Lydon like Snoogans says
