Toodle-loo Oulu. Respect
to you.
Your active

Thank you Holland and Hungary.
Two great gigs. Hungary was another of John's highlights
and Holland certainly didn't disappoint. The Sziget Festival was
something special. Proper active participation for as far as the
eye could see. Hardcore. The band were also impressed at how you
policed yourselves. A breath of fresh air.
Heartfelt RESPECT to you all… |

Banzai Tokyo! Thank you! Thank You!
As predicted,
Tuesday's club show was something special. For John it was the
best show of the tour. It's wonderful playing to huge festival
crowds but nothing beats the intimacy of seeing in your eyes. The
bond and unity between the band and the crowd is what performing
these songs is all about. Tokyo understood and respected this perfectly.
From the very first song till the last you were like a human Tsunami!
Full-on. Relentless. Amazing.
Quote from Johnny Rotten: "The
great joy in doing this is that for over 30 years our music has
crossed over every culture, race, and creed. It just proves how
right we are…"

Japan. Honour and Respect.
Japan
has been great. Honour and respect to all in Osaka and Tokyo. Tokyo
was exceptional. Your active participation was greatly, greatly
appreciated. You certainly weren't shy in front of Uncle Johnny
and the boys. If Tuesday's Tokyo gig is anything like Saturday's
we are all in for a treat… |

Greek Nationalism Salutes Johnny Rottenism!
RESPECT RESPECT RESPECT
Respect to Athens for your active participation. The Sex Pistols
beat the Panarchists and the crowd went wild. The Greeks know how
to have fun and so do the Sex Pistols. There was a unity last night
that has brought awe inspiring respect. No mythology.
They'd love to come back and do it again.
Proper love and respect.

Birmingham!
Johnny Rotten united
the Villains and the Zulus while a pack of Wolves howled in delight
at the ram packed Birmingham Academy last night. There wasn't a
dry armpit in the house as the Pistols delivered a blistering set
in the blistering heat. The highlight of which was Mr Rotten leading
the crowd through 'Baghdad Was A Blast'. Alllahh! |

Vegas!
The Pistols kicked off the
Combine Harvester Tour in fine style last night in Vegas. Mr Rotten

surprises, and had a jolly good time. Roll on Birmingham... |
