Never mind your knees, here's the Sex Pistols


I went with Gerkin, Ironbeard and John to see The Sex Pistols at the Brixton Academy. The support band The Cribs were the support, and got a pretty good reception. In between The Cribs and The Pistols, bizarrely was DJ Goldie doing a mini set, but to be fair he was never going to be that popular!

When The Pistols came on Gerkin, Ironbeard and myself went down the front to the mosh pit for one or two songs to get the atmosphere.....and ended up staying there for the whole gig! It was pretty manic, but very good natured....and very sweaty as you can see from some of the photos!

The photos and videos were taken on a Casio S3 camera, so not very high tech, but it seems to have captured the spirit of the night in true punk fashion (heh heh!), even if most were taken by just sticking the camera up in the air and hoping for the best! As various reports have said, The Pistols themselves were far better than most people were expecting, and everyone had an absolute blast!
