I would like to know
When you saw the Pistols were you aware that something ‘special’ was happening or did it feel like it was just another gig by another band? Were they actually any good?

Over. Rated.

I don't know if I'd go quite that far
but I don't think I'd want to go see them live. Punk gigs could get pretty brutal.

Sadly none of these so-called 'facts' are true

Oh. You internet liar, you.

Sorry to disappoint...
These facts were in fact from a song.
I'm quite into 'song' y'know

You know how every man and his dog claims to have seen them
at the Lesser Free Trade Hall (or whatever it’s called) in Manchester?

Apparently one person who actually was there and did go on to form a band was……..Mick Hucknall.

You can see the influence even today.

Rather like Morrissey and The New York Dolls.

I like that you've referred to him as "the Mick Hucknall"
makes him sound even more hideous and demonic than he already is. A bit like "the Balrog" or "the Rancor" or "the McKeith"

that was a typo
but I spotted it and thought I'd leave it. My reasoning was the same as yours :-)

This notion makes me chuckle far more than it should

Surely *all* Manchester musicians were at that gig?
including Tony McCarroll, Limahl and M People
