[kj] (OT) The Swindle Is Complete: John Lydon in "JCS"

[Alex Smith]

Yeah, but it's not just about "punk," it's about his own legacy. I mean -- fair enough, it's his life, and he can do what he wants (and does), but it seems like a bit of a letdown that the man who once struck horror into the very fiber of society as we knew it is now treading the boards under the sickly banner of Andrew Lloyd Fucking Webber. That, to me, seems pretty indefensible, but fuck do I know?

Alex in NYC
