[kj] Pistols in London - Bodies revealed.

[Paul Wady]

I dont know if anyone has already explained this, but Bodies is quite a story.
 
The band used to get letters from a beautiful young woman who lived in a psychiatric hostpital in Birmingham.  Lydon wrote about this in his 1994 autobiography.  She once turned up on his doorstep wearing nothing at all, save a transparent bin bag.  She had these scary eyes...  
 
She talked about the male nurses there making her pregnant, when she wasnt hiding in the treehouse she claimed to have in the grounds.  So there you have it, the tree and the abortions.  Great song.

Keep Smiling...

What did Johnny say the song was really about, or what point was it making?

 the bollocks DVD has a fantastic explanation  of bodies, and also an interview  that JL gave to sirius radio a few years back, explains it much better than i ever could 
 
Gingoblin, you didn't like crystal palace?
wierd, i wasn't there but from bootlegs i would rate that 2002/3 tour much better than the 96 tour
 
 i see  theres now a pistols version of KJ's vinyl bootleg archive compilation, 
"never trust a hippy" pity its a limited edition import
 7 cds of live stuff kept me entertained all week, all bands should do  one
