John Lydon Rants Against Drugs, 50 Cent Wastes Millions of Bucks, Camp Bisco Adds Acts

sex pistols

  • The Sex Pistols’ Johnny “Rotten” Lydon is the second artist this week to make the revelatory claim that drugs are bad for you. Rotten “despises” drugs because they wasted the talents of many of his peers, especially Sid Vicious. Lydon, who has starred on the U.K.’s I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! failed to comment on the damaging effects of reality television.
  • 50 Cent generously/foolishly gave fellow rappers on his record label and their entourages and their entourage’s entourages a combined $8.5 million. According to 50, “Oops.”
  • Get a look at what wannabe drummers and singers are anxiously awaiting: It’s Rock Band, the new game from the team that brought you Guitar Hero.
  • While USB may be the new CD, we applaud the musician who went 8-bit and released his new album on a Nintendo cartridge. Try putting that on your iPod.

The game is called ‘Rock Band.’

stoopids.

Ah yes … the Sex Pistols. The first punk boy band. If you have to pass an audition for a manager or you really that punk?

if you eat too much you get fat and die. Thus, food is bad for you.

Sid Vicious had talent?

The problem isn’t taking drugs, it’s taking TOO many drugs. And there is a big difference between the two. It’s the difference between a social drinker and an alcoholic.
And you’re right, Boner. Just ’cause Vicious was Rotten’s friend doesn’t mean he had any talent…

50 Cent was just fulfilling a destiny of sorts: Mo’ money, mo’ problems… which eventually leads to no money, even mo’ problems…

I wonder if you can get herpes from playing Rock Band. Depends on how realistic it is, I guess.

The Disco Biscuits are an aquired taste musically, but I think they’ve got one of the best names ever.

What a great way to honor his humble roots by blowing almost $9 mill on a bunch of flunkies.

Congratulations Jeff C! You are the winner of today’s “most pretentious poster” award. You win a pair of straight black jeans, 2 sizes too small of course, a delightfully ironic Urban Outfitters T-shirt and the right to not be too fucking cool for everything! Congrats!

He should have given the money to the people who want him dead.

Johnny Kickass | 7/5/2007, 5:10 pm EST

Whenever the Sex Pistols come up someone always has to say ‘they were a manufactured band, told what to do by their manager, therefore they are not punk..’

So stupid.

Who wrote ‘God Save the Queen’ and ‘Anarchy in the UK’ and ‘Holidays in the Sun’ and ‘Bodies’…?

Answer: the Sex Pistols
So shut it.

The meaning of punk is all over the place.

Sex Pistols were a Punk band. Watch their live shows if you don’t believe me.

BurtBacharach | 7/5/2007, 5:31 pm EST

Sex Pistols blow. If the album, or if you can call that, was released in any other year than 1977 or whatever the fuck it is, it would of been considered mediocre trash. It’s not cutting-edge. It’s not revolutionary, it’s simply just a bunch of anarchy for you and me! God save the music.

Anyone else see 50 cent gently fading away, his time is over. He’s mass marketed himself in any product he can. He rode in on a few decent club-bangers, now he can ride-out on his own personal beach towels, and vitamin water.

Lydon went on to make better music than the Pistols. The manager went on to produce crap like Bow Wow Wow. It’s obvious who the real talent was.

50 is trying too hard now. We’e starting to really see The Game’s prediction: ‘That G-unit sh@t aint gonna last’

Wasn’t Sid Vicious a natural born cretin from Day One?

Yes drugs are bad for you….but its they way you use them that really fucks you over. Have some self control….Sid was too fucked up to have any kind of self control. However The Sex Pistols were a very good talented and origanal group….

BullsEyE | 7/19/2007, 7:11 am EST
