GOING GREAT GUNS
IT IS not often a band has a cultural impact that spans decades, but the Sex Pistols have achieved just that. The rockers were at the forefront of the British punk movement in the mid-1970s - railing against the establishment through provocative lyrics.
They only released one studio album, Never Mind The B******* Here's The Sex Pistols, in 1977, but it is regarded as one of the most influential rock records of all time.
Fast-forward through a string of internal disputes, break-ups and reunions over the last 50 years and you will arrive at 2025, when Glen, guitarist Steve Jones and drummer Paul Cook are set to embark on a string of shows together.
"It was our first band, it's probably going to be our last band," Glen, 68, tells me. "There's a chemistry there. When you walk in the room, we've got something in common that only three people in the world have.
"When we plug in and start playing, not only do we sound like that, but we are the original Sex Pistols, there's a value in that." The trio united with singer Frank Carter last year to perform several fundraising gigs last August to support renowned west London music venue Bush Hall, playing Sex Pistols classics such as Pretty Vacant, Anarchy In The UK and God Save The Queen.
