Quietus Interview - March 4, 2010

I found this one to be interesting for the most part. Starts off a little negative & seems to end a bit condensing to the present PiL touring line-up, but still worth reading.

Thank you for posting this Joan! I hate when critics seem to think a band shouldn't reform. I mean so many fans never got the chance on the first go around, and it means so much to actually get to watch John perform his songs rather than some cover band.

I'd like to know, too, how many of the American critics even saw that much-vaunted first lineup. I think Lydon/Wobble/Levene played 10 shows total over here, if that!

The band has morphed so many times, I think of this less as a reunion tour than the end of a long hiatus for John.

Well said, I agree completely
