One advantage of writing about music is that you don’t need a diary. One disadvantage is that you experience so much of it that there are concerts of which I have absolutely no memory. Not one shard. I know I was there – I have the newspaper clipping.Today, Rocks Back Pages reminded me I saw the first gig by The Buzzcocks, opening for The Sex Pistols. At the same show The Pistols unveiled “A

When The Sex Pistols got together and started putting out records, there weren't many radio djs in the U.S. who would even consider their music. But their songs were all #1 on the KSAN program I co-hosted. And when they toured America they came on the show as our guests and we went to Winterland to see what turned out to be their last-ever concert. "Anarchy in the U.K." was their first single (...

The other night I watched *almost* 2 rock docs back to back: The Filth and The Fury, which covers the Sex Pistols and Loudquietloud which dealt with The Pixies. I'm a real fan of documentaries and of all kinds of music, so what could be better than parking my butt and watching a rock doc?Perhaps I am just biased but watching the two consecutively made the contrast between the two films rather ...

Obviously, I'm attending July 15th (GOGOL FOOKING BORDELLO!). My 'problem' is with July 16th. I'm not sure if I'll have to pay tickets for this yet, but the festival takes place in Athens, and I'll have to stay an extra day at a hotel, so there is extra cost no matter what.In general, I am a bit of a snob with big bands that come here when they are old (especially if I haven't seen them young;...

On April 4, 1976, the Sex Pistols first interview was published. I wrote it. I hadn't intended to write it, but the morning after seeing them I was talking about it to my editor. I was really bored with current music and the Pistols seemed to be the first truly modern band in several years: they didn’t sound like anything else. He didn’t say much, listening with an increasingly bemused look, t
