It's like Mini-Kiss in that they're officially-sanctioned (I guess by Johnny and Steve?) to be THE cover band for the Sex Pistols. They told us that cover bands are incredibly numerous over there, where if your band has a hit single then within 3 months you'll have your own cover band. Good buncha fellas and their "Steve Jones" apparently played on Spice Girls albums, among other Britpop acts...The Hamzingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06322874719648588791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-36077549328573186912011-06-02T12:22:33.572-04:002011-06-02T12:22:33.572-04:00Awright, I'll get off yer lawns! :-)

The songs were a ton of fun as well.<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_hfXIwGQr4Mikenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-28209263050415072792011-06-02T11:56:14.455-04:002011-06-02T11:56:14.455-04:00I was going to say the same thing about Attila.

The Pistols, 2-3 songs tops, The Clash, 4-5 songs maybe, and the Damned (I'm with you) never really got into at all.<br /><br />I guess some or most of us went the Rock/Pop way. With my nerves at this point being 3/4s shot half the time, I should be listening to Perry Como and Jim Nabors. Or taking the Easy Listening road with Ray Conniff and Mantovani.FD13NYChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14964671671960423199noreply@blogger.com
