Sex Pistols play The Tonight Show with Jay Leno

atari 2600 · 10.30.2007, 10:35 PM

Tom Cruise and Republican presidential candidate Rep. Ron Paul are the other guests. I'm definitely watching towards the end of the show tonight.

Letterman's got Jennifer Connelly, Slash and Nicole Adkins as the musical guest tonight.

I wish it were PiL instead.

atari 2600 · 10.30.2007, 10:47 PM

You parrots bore me to tears with that PiL is even better than Sex Pistols line.

Look, it's gonna be what it is; stop your damn bellyaching.

Letterman's bumper just had the video of the young Ahhnold tokin' up on the joint.

PiL is even better than Sex Pistols.

public image and metal box/second edition > nevermind the bollocks.

sex pistols are good for fun, for real music, gotta go with pil.

gmku · 10.30.2007, 11:10 PM

Word.

Inhuman · 10.30.2007, 11:27 PM

Ha, weird because a guy I know was actually on Jay Leno tonight. Robert, he was the Canadian that could stuff all those candies in his mouth and he holds the record for most grapes in his mouth.

gmku · 10.30.2007, 11:41 PM

I have a feeling Robert will go far.

Pax Americana · 10.30.2007, 11:45 PM

So I just watched Johnny Rotten shake hands with Ron Paul...

What the fuck!?

gmku · 10.30.2007, 11:46 PM

Wankers, both of em.

atari 2600 · 10.30.2007, 11:50 PM

PiL were a marginally innovative and influential band, but they aren't legends like the Sex Pistols.
That should be basic to the non-obtuse.

Furthermore, Lydon has always had a very unconventional voice and style, but that didn't matter with his work with the Sex Pistols, because his heart is clearly there and it translates into the power and energy of that legendary music. His vocals and lyrics sound terrific on Never Mind the Bullocks...Here's the Sex Pistols.

But as soon as Lydon left and formed PiL, his listenability declined rapidly. He's pretty bad now, and also was fairly wretched on the previous reunions. The guy admittedly doesn't like to perform anyway, and he's very "off" for the most part in my opinion, but again, he's been "off" ever since during most of PiL. Although, some of PiL is strong enough musically to get past Lydon's shortcomings.

I would have much rather have heard "Liar" or "Problems" tonight.

Everyneurotic · 10.31.2007, 12:07 AM

whatever, i like both, but i like me the more enhaced listening experience of early pil.

gmku · 10.31.2007, 12:16 AM

yeh, whatever...

atari 2600 · 10.31.2007, 12:33 AM

Zappa Plays Zappa (featuring Dweezil) just played a sweet "Willie The Pimp" (an excellent choice of song) on Late Night With Conan O'Brien.

Rob Instigator · 10.31.2007, 08:33 AM

That clip of ahnuld the governator enjoying the FUCK out of that joint makes me happy everytime.

atari 2600 · 10.31.2007, 09:23 AM

Yeah, you're right, although it's been awhile, Letterman was using it before occasionally...before its most recent resuscitation on the internet(ting).

11.01.2007, 08:26 AM

Last time I've watched Johnny Rotten on tv I wanted to punch him through my tv screen. He was such an irritating, stupid arsehole, it was unbelievable. Why he still thinks that he has made some sort of impact on the world is beyond me. And PIL are waaaayyyy better than Sex Pistols.

atari 2600 · 11.01.2007, 08:40 AM

They were on the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson last night.
I missed it completely.

floatingslowly · 11.01.2007, 08:54 AM

I saw them on the Tonite Show!

I usually sit at the computer with headphones on talking to my other geek friends about killing pixels, but for some reason the TV was on.

I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I've not heard/seen anything by even Johnny Rotten in a long long time.

it made me happy.
