I feel bad not posting on the quality, but in the NFO it says it's up there with Spinal Tap as one of the greatest rockumentries. Spinal Tap was a movie, a Mockumentry, and just about everything in that movie was ad libbed. Sex Pistols are not even that good of a band, they suck so bad they would leave their bassist (Sid Vicious) unplugged during shows because he is not that good at bass.

Umm no no no.They put Sid in the band just for the eye-candy factor.It is true his bass was sometimes unplugged and a rodie played for him.The pistols were a great band that had a short life.They said what they wanted to say Sid went nuts and they were bored and that was the end.

............LOL..........Sex Pistols is one of the most influencing bands of all time. Allot of modern shit totally came from the Influence of the Sex Pistols.....but then again I guess if in your opinion John Denver is a god among men I can totally see how you could feel this way about the pistols *DoH* but anyway I think this is an awesome rockumentrie. Now you guys just need to come out with Sid and Nancy to complete the set.

... and that's what made them a great PUNK band. If you wanted musicians back then, you had zeppelin and floyd and all that other shite. Punk was ABOUT pissing off the mainstream.

But this forum is for reviewing the vcd, not the band.

Great quality, typical Flair release. They are great at what they do, for what it's worth

8/8/8

well by that standard they should've left the whole lot of em unplugged. they strived on sounding damn terrible, so that would be a surprise.

and spinal tap was all real !!

Fuck the Sex Pistols

Hey!
Hmm, the Sex pistols started off very nice, but then they went fucking commercial, and that was the worst they could do as a Punk band. They are sell-out's!!!! That cannot be said enough!
I am sick and tired of watching teenage boys and girls dressing in Sex Pistols clothing and thinking "Ooh, I am SO punk, with this new T-Shirt" fuck them! They will never know what punk is, and was!

Back to the Pistols, the first stuff they made was cool, and kickass punk, but do not come here and tell me that they are no.1 punk band!!!

-over and out
