Got my tickets for the Buzzcocks 2day, first saw them as a teenager, turned 45 on sat…ah well, better polish the zimmer frame and get the right tyre pressure in my wheelchair to pogo at the front..good thing is, they are only doing the 1st 2 albums Another Music In A Different Kitchen and Love Bites
 
Anyone else seen them on this tour? Do I need earplugs as well?

True, but the idea of the Pistols was always to piss people off, and I guess they did so by reforming and touring! Rotten claimed on a tv interview recently that they never really broke up, and just tour from time to time. You gotta respect groups like the Buzzcocks, Damned, and (except for 4 years) SLF that have kept going for so long!

They did. A group that *never* should have toured again. 

 

k.w.

Pistols were good in 1996 (US) but I heard they stunk on the last tour.
