I was 13 too and living in London too so I remember all the excitement when they burst onto society like nothing ever seen or heard in England before in glorious technicolour!! It was SO exciting,it seemed like something new was happening every single day!!
AWESOME COMPILATION!!! THANKS FROM ATLANTA* AKA= Their FIRST US SHOW SPOT!! {*AKA From ME!!} + 4 the REST OF THE U.S.A!! THis IS= BLEEPIN' FUCKIN AWESOME!!!
I was living in Tulsa at the time this happened & I wanted to go just to see what all the brew haha was all about but it snowed like a real mutha that night so I didnt make it, 1 of the biggest regrets of my life...did get to see Patti Smith at the Cains that year tho so that sorta made up for it.
Tom Brokaw and Jane Pauly - you are so disgusting why are you put on the air? This is a great little film and looking back one must laugh. I went to many early punk gigs in Chicago and went up to the periphery of the front where you WOULD get trampled on or hurt because it was mostly guys just bashing themselves around, fighting etc. My sister used to drag me to the front. Best times in my life.

His disdain for punk and the sex pistols only helps to sell them to young people. it's so funny. He doesn't even realise that Punk is an American creation, not British. It started in NYC then came to the UK via the Ramones.
The Saints. Radio Birdman, all came before this.It was a worlwide thing about how we were sick of the commercial sound of music.We were over music to a formula equals a hit.The rammones were loved in America ,they were good but not considered a punk band .American's will argue this.Punk was many things as long as it was not commercial. You could listen to rammones music on most radio stations, good music, hardly punk like the Brits or Aussies played it

Wow, that's a lot of leg work. Nice job 👌.
Thank you.

Bobby Ellerby aka Sharif (sheriff) from squidbillies introduced them to Atlanta!! Thanks sheriff!
This was a very well done news story, especially considering how level headed and forward looking it was for the time.
From a man who comes from where Paul and Steve come from that was a fucking brilliant film.
I was 13 thirteen when these guys hit the scene. I never knew what they were about until last week. I missed out on something special.
I was 13 too and living in London too so I remember all the excitement when they burst onto society like nothing ever seen or heard in England before in glorious technicolour!! It was SO exciting,it seemed like something new was happening every single day!!
Nice job, I wish you included something on the Baton Rouge gig Kingfish bar.
My Sister in law's father saw them in Louisiana, during that tour. I wonder if that's where he saw them?
That pink ""SEX PISTOLS US TOUR"" t-shirt Paul Cook is wearing sold for about £30,000 at Juliens Auctions last year!
How the fuck could The Pistols EVER outdo the USA for obnoxiousness when the USA are the masters of obnoxious? Haha
Haha... Awesome! Good shit! Nice job, thx...
I'm 99% sure that future R.E.M. guitarist Peter Buck is standing behind the girls at 3:22 for the Atlanta gig - #peterbuck , is that you?
