Saving up for the next Stones tour?
That's allright EG. Even with a helmet on,I'm sure Danica is still better to look at then Johnny Rotten.

Not yet. 1) my kids education; and 2)possible trip to Europe again this summer to go back to Croatia (island of Brac) from whence my grandfather came in 1904, we will be staying in his old house;
journey to Germany to attend StonesTreff fan club gathering -- I am a member of their group, having gotten to know a number of them the last two summers on Stones tours. I also happen to be half German (that's the other half).

Exactly my sentiment.
Also at Sziget Festival, Budapest, Hungary Aug 12-18.

Well, they're only booked through the end of August.
Seems like plenty of time to get more American dates in later in the year.
They are planning to tour in the US in the fall. A friend of mine when he met Rotten last year here in L.A., asked him about any upcoming tour plans for the US and Rotten responded saying "we have something saucy planned for the US".
When their European tour dates were announced, it was also stated in the media that the Pistols were hoping to tour the US with their own festival, so we'll see if the festival idea pans out.
I think a festival tour, with performances a bunch of Pistols-influenced bands, followed by the Pistols themselves, is the way to go. If they tour on their own, they'll have to play small theatres. There really wasn't all that much interest here in 1996, and even less in 2003, but a festival tour might just work for them.
Then what is Lydon livin' in Malibu?
Talk about your favorite band.

I had just bought my tickets to the IndyCar race in Texas before finding out Rotten & Company were playing in Vegas the same night.
At least I'll be doing something else I enjoy, but I probably would have changed my mind if I knew.

I would liked to have gone, and Queenie would have liked to have gone, but right now we both have other priorities that require money.

yes - it seems to be their only US date, unfortunately. i'm glad i didn't plan for it - too much regular life stuff going on.
i don't understand why more US shows aren't scheduled? afraid of failure? i think they'd do quite well!

Nope, I won't go and see them in Vegas, they'll be playing at the Lowlands Festival in the Netherlands at the end of August!

Damn, talk about a band that should quit. I've just never been able to get into the Sex Pistols. Aren't they pretty much a joke now, being old men and raging about the Queen of England and all that trollop? Those songs have just not aged well, for me anyway.
Yeah, exactly, Pistols in VEGAS? That is SO not punk rock...

So lets see if I understand some of you. You have a problem with the Pistols playing Vegas but obviously no problem with Mick still singing "I can't get no satisfaction". Pull your heads out of your arse. Whether it be the Stones or the Pistols or any other 'old' band touring, this is what they do for a living. Just like a 50 year old plumber or auto mechanic. This is how they put bread on the table. I seem to remember Mick being asked when he's going to quit and he stated what else is he going to do. This is what he's done all his life. This is all he knows how to do. If you don't think the Clash would be playing Vegas if they were still around, your in some kind idealistic brain freeze. Geez.

OK sure fine, go off on that line and that way of thinking. Think about it - it's the SEX PISTOLS. That's the whole point.
It's cool that they are playing and all, it's just that Vegas is, well, Vegas. It has such a...what is the word I'm looking for?

I think he lives in Marina del rey, Bro - which, while a very nice place in itself, isnt exactly Malibu.
Agree with the absurdity of the Pistols playing Vegas - then again, I never thought I'd see the Stones playing casinos there or corporate gigs either.
maybe Johnny's just trying to be ironic and/or perverse.
