Loads of celebs there, Malcom Mclaren was the only one who stayed afterwards, he hung about with the kids for a good couple of hours and was a proper gent, then went down the bay tree pub with everyone until he was eventually dragged away by his girlfriend.

I thought it was the Dolls that inspired all that...I may be wrong, of course. Title: Re: RIP The Godfather of punk Post by: chalkies_shorts on Friday, April 9, 2010, 22:35:33 After the Pistols became a bit infamous they couldn't play many live gigs as the majority of places banned them. What they used to do instead was to book the gigs under pseudonims. There were big rumours they had done thisat the Brunel so a big crowd turned up - inclusing me - hoping to see the Pistols. The original band turned up and got absolutely monstered.
I never liked Malcolm McLaren much and punk would have taken off with or without him. Title: Re: RIP The Godfather of punk Post by: Peter Venkman on Saturday, April 10, 2010, 09:50:14 RIP MM
