“We gave it fucking 200 percent for, like two years,and that was it. I think we ran out of steam. I loved being a Sex Pistol, I'll always be a Sex Pistol. At least when I die, I can say I done something.” Steve Jones
@@SimplyLimbo HAHAHAHA - true! Im assuming you saw The Filth and the Fury - I love the bit in the movie where they mention that. Hahaha. Steve Jones well all of them. I know they didnt like each other - trust me I know their history. But I think you can like them each seperately and as a group without contradiction. Steve Jone was underrated as a guitarist as well. I know people smacktalk them "oh they were too simplistic" whatever else. Stripped down basic. Thats what it was. And better than anything else punkwise. Anything. Period. God Save Em.
The incredible heartbreak and poignancy of the Sex Pistols’ final performance always brings a tear to my eyes. Johnny Rotten threw all his feelings - his anger, frustration, his whole heart and soul - into this emotionally powerful, naked, raw, performance of "No Fun" at Winterland that night. It was a "swan song" that perfectly summed up the end of the Sex Pistols. His famous final comment, "ever get the feeling you've been cheated?" sums up his disillusionment with being mistreated by the Pistols self-proclaimed manager, Malcolm McLaren, the real "rotten" one. As John delivered his final line, he smiled, showing his inherent good humor despite the pain of knowing it was all falling apart around him (especially with Sid’s self-destructive heroin habit). Rotten (Lydon) was (is) a genuine genius if there ever was one, the true spirit of punk...love that man!
@@nikkipacheco6835I think Rotten wanted the band to keep going but without Malcolm McLaren 'cause he saw that they were treated as puppets, but the rest didn't saw that and choose yo stay with Malcolm
It does always get me seeing that look in Lydon's eyes as he is kneeling on stage in the final bars of the song looking out over the crowd. I've always wished I could have seen inside his head at that exact moment.
That moment you see it switch in John's face is like shivering, in a moment he goes from mad frustrated kid to a complete understanding that this thing is over, that punk had come and gone and this was it. You wonder now looking back on such a moment, did he know then that this would be such a pivitol moment in Rock and Roll history
Punk had come and gone? Not by a long shot. Far better bands and a much less fashion oriented iterations were ready in waiting for this art school, rich boy image band to depart.
@@MaximusWolfe Well the initial UK punk movement I think he is referring to since the US bands like the Ramones were still going and had notable traction in their respected country
@@xyaeiounn oh I don't know about all that, I think he, like many of the first wave punks at this point realized, that it was a farce or had become one, once you package rebellion it's just another, gimmick, sure the DIY spirit carried on but, simple rage had given way to better things, I mean Howard Devoto had already left The Buzzcocks to form the IMO more interesting Magazine, Joy Division was about to change music and John Lydon still had PiL in his future, the Sex Pistols US tour was more of a publicity stunt than anything, really
@@adamgorsky8422 Well, yeah, that's all cultural moments and stuff. This guy was just the visible tip of a swirling mass of DIY/folk style responses to the shithole that Britain had become at that time. Twenty-foot high stacks of garbage in the street? A small, mobile nation of unemployed, homeless people getting their gatherings destroyed by police? What we, as consumers, refer to as punk was just a small clot of money and celebrity that bobbed up for a minute on the surface of a culture that had seriously started to eat itself even then. In that moment, though, he was a skinny kid who ran out of gusto. Hardcore punkers despised that, and ended up having a more strenuous political, musical and ethical style. A wimpy street kid, used as a stooge by a fashion label, was not the precursor to or even an indicator of the idiotic critters to come like GG Allin.
Glad you good taste I'm 48 started to listen to then about 14 years old.but we are all different never to late and punk had no age barriers everyone is welcome no prejudices welcome a board hope you have lots of fun listening to them seen them six times on reunion tours met glen and John and have 250 items in my collection
John knew that it was the end of the road , you can see the realisation in his face at the end and especially when he said "ever get the feeling you've been cheated, good night" ... i don't count their reunions because it didn't capture and have the same atmosphere as their early gigs and when they first blew up. this was the last night of punk , the last REAL sex pistols concert..and that ladies and gentleman was the sex pistols
Iconic. Sex Pistols changed the whole youth culture in the UK. They also upset the poor monarchy lol😊 They were number 1 on top of the pops with God Save The Queen, but coz it was banned, there was no number 1 that week in the English charts for the only time. Bless em
6:15 That’s such a heartbreaking look. The clarity and pain of knowing it’s the end. “Ever get the feeling you’ve been cheated?” is such a great encapsulation of that moment, though-one of my favorite quotes.
A chilling song...have you ever had the feeling.......this song breaks my fucking heart. The Pistols disbanded, Sid was on his way out. Fucking sad the way it all went. John Lydon is my man, my hero. I was 14 when i heard God save the Queen and i stood perplex. Never in my life i heard something like that. It shook me up. At that instant i became a punk. I`m 61 one now, i`m still a punk.
They perform or possibly recorded as a B-side a better version of this live performance, in my opinion that recording (not this one) is a better version than the original. But then again I always thought Fun House and Raw Power were much better albums. Raw Power is every bit as much as a masterpiece as Nevermind the Bollocks or London Calling.
It was much more about pointing out how the whole thing was no fun for them anymore than it was about any tribute tbh. The song was handpicked for the title and how it related to their situation as for "original punks" Lydon was his own movement, he was not affiliated with any other so called "punks" and you can't bind what he did to anyone else. To me the genius of Johnny doesn't even relate to his music, it's more about the emotion he was conveying through it it's hard to explain, but no one really shared it everyone else was a band, the sex pistols were an idea and in fact the sex pistols' breakup came as a result of attempts to turn them into a band and turning their message into vapid commercial garbage. There's a reason why in the early days of PiL Johnny was so against the idea that PiL was a band.
@@liquidsnake6879 That no fun bit reminds me of The Beatles, who found no fun performing cause the audience was too loud. That would be fitting cause Pistols are the second most important band after The Beatles
When Johnny rotten said that I did not know what he meant I found out later I was there that night I had no idea it'd be their last concert I drove in the rain by myself the show was sold out but I got in. Thank you to whoever posted this
Even though Sex Pistols were falling apart, I still love this version of No Fun over Iggy's. Lydon/Rotten really belted the vocals into something special!
The last song the last gig and in Sweden the punk revolution had just begun. As a 15 year old, the wrestling with Raggare/biker had just begun. But it was the best time of my life. If Rotten dies before me, I will mourn as if he were a close relative he is god. One time punk always punk rocker!
I can't believe that nobody's talking about Iggy Pop or The Stooges. All three Stooges albums, including No Fun in their self-titled debut, are freaking awesome. The Stooges is truly underrated. They're at least in the top 10 of the world's greatest bands.
@@thevoid99 Funhouse is wild, especially TV Eye, but my favorite is gotta be Raw Power. When after listening to it, I swear it was the craziest thing in the world
They're, the best band out there, or at least the best band america has even given to the world. The rest was just a mimic of them, they're the ultimate rock band of this planet.
Wow, nobody sounded as amazing as Steve. So-called "critics" are, in the last ten years or so, finally tapping into his greatness. Same with Cookie. Of course, the world has known that John is a genius from Day One. For anyone who didn't think so, all doubts were removed with PiL.
What you said. Thumbs up. All I can say is Ive loved them since I was 12. Im 48 now. My parents were always heavy into music. They had NMTB in their collection. Along with a lot of other pure gems. Steve was stripped down and basic, as were the others. Just raw simpletude. No music wanking like the other crap many of their contemporaries were spitting out. Ive heard the criticisms. And guess what, notwithstanding orchestral music or some other genres - if its guitar based - simple is better. Its timeless and primeval. Anyway - good comment. And I agree.
How can they fall apart here? it's one of the best performances I seen from a group. The instrumentals and drumming is to the highest standards. This song totally describes us perfectly, who were born in the 60s and 70s and still living in 2022. RIP those who have left us from them wonderful years.
The end of Rock and Roll. All the reigning Top-40 glittering rockstars' decadence demolished-- with merciless, gleeful nihilism, culminating in this exclusive, gruesome, auto-destructive performance encapsulated right here for future generations to ponder. I never understood the point of them getting back together. The Sex Pistols annihilated nostalgia to oblivion! Peace and over and out!
Sad, poignant, beautiful, repulsive, tragic. It's definitely in the top 10 of rock n roll moments because it encompasses everything that rock n roll is, was and ever will be. Some kids going at 110% from start to finish, changing the world but having no idea in the moment that they're changing it. For everything falling around down around them and just trying to get through a gig , it's a fantastic show from a band that couldn't help but run like a dialed in machine onstage. The rock n roll dream and the rock n roll nightmare for your viewing pleasure. Truly lighting in a bottle.
This was the last year that Winterland had concerts, The Blues Brothers and The Grateful Dead had the last concert there on News Years Eve 1978, it was a great place for people in San Francisco to go to. 1928-1978.

It's a amazing piece of entertainment by the greatest band ever saw them six times live on reunion .John looks so fed up steve also is not happy paul stable as allways but john smiles at the end ever getting you ve been cheated not at all the were the best it was amazing ending first time round. John no longer could get the anger our he feels the same apathy at the end sid looks really stoned no fun no fun at all sums up the band demise first time round
No John, we weren't cheated at all. The Winterland performance was a hell of a show most of the way through looking back, and compared to alot of what came after. Ground breaking also by proving that punk, though certainly not arena rock, can atleast make it to be a big sound in the concert halls......
That look in the end - there is no punk, there are no Pistols, there is nothing. Still, this fantastic song always gives me the chills, be it Pistols or the Ig himself.
What I like about Rotten / Lydon is he don’t hold back his feelings even at a time like this he gives it truth within their last live performance & I bet he is to this day so chuffed he did. Very Punk ! 😜
my most favorite band of all time I was a punk when I was young this was the first band that introduce d me to punk it's crazy that now I'm older how MN much I was in love with the pistols now I see how my attitude n life style is exactly like rotten n Sid to the core u would only know if u were me it's almost scary

I don't think any band has ever fallen apart so perfectly infront of a crowd.
Manic Street Preachers at the Astoria was pretty spectacular but yeah, this is something else
The Fall’s onstage fight between band mates in 1998 was pretty good
They had already started to fall apart Sid wodot turn yp John was ill
Mmm.... the band falling apart may, make that differently, been partly due too a certain Malcolm McLaren
I heard they broke up backstage before this gig.
When the song you're singing happens to describe your situation a little too perfectly.
Rotten realized he became a PARODY of himself; mid-song.
HAHAHAHAHA - J - this is straight truth....your comment nailed it!
His singing for the rest of the song improved once he realized how he felt too.
Shyt, this song is about me…….
I hear you.
😂👏
The look on John's face when the realization came that it was over is the purest, most honest look you'll ever see.
T.C.W Report way over before this gig. whole thing was a sham really. surprised they pulled of a legendary lp in the process
Yep. He just had enough with the farceness.
He realized they sucked.
@Trips: 😁😂😅😆🤣
I like how you added "especially" the shittiest part of this so-called musical performance.
@Trips: It's amazing what you think IQ is.
I get a lump in my throat every time I see this. When the camera pulls out on John at the end, you see a man all alone.

It's a amazing piece of entertainment by the greatest band ever saw them six times live on reunion .John looks so fed up steve also is not happy paul stable as allways but john smiles at the end ever getting you ve been cheated not at all the were the best it was amazing ending first time round. John no longer could get the anger our he feels the same apathy at the end sid looks really stoned no fun no fun at all sums up the band demise first time round
Singing this song with the FLU,is amazing!
Absolute perfection! 9 at the time so I was forced to watch from across the fence. I swear I never blinked once!
The very Best Band of the W....! Greetings fromm Germany ❤️❤️❤️❤️Sorry for my bad English
oh shit ...just felt properly in love and getting him...well..I was too young even when they were over and I've been an early PIL fan all this time.
Listened to it live on KSAN radio. Had a poster of the gig on my wall for several years.
What a legendary quote and performance. Truth in art.
This is history!
おはよう👋😆✨☀️皆さんとグレートパンケット😃✌️久し振りのピストルズで熱く熱く成った🎵凄いリズムにテンポ、進行と音作りに音楽の幅の広さに素晴らしく感銘した。🙌ヤッホー、SEX PISTOLS
No fun!!! Oh bollocks! Why should I carry on??!
"ever get the feeling you've been cheated?" the perfect sign off. and applicable to oh so many things.
About the best version of this song ever !!!!
This is epic seeing a band break up right before your eyes
Aguante Los Pistols!! From Argentina.-
6:27, John seems a little sad.
Boo hoo hoo poor punk rockers.
Because people spit him often (
Yeah, Johnny does seem sad..you can see it in his face..
No John, we weren't cheated at all. The Winterland performance was a hell of a show most of the way through looking back, and compared to alot of what came after. Ground breaking also by proving that punk, though certainly not arena rock, can atleast make it to be a big sound in the concert halls......
Art In Words
Gotta watch this every year on this day
"A ah ah... Ever get the feeling you've been cheated? Good night!"
...and he meant it.
That look in the end - there is no punk, there are no Pistols, there is nothing.
Still, this fantastic song always gives me the chills, be it Pistols or the Ig himself.
Punk may be dead. But there will always be the Sex Pistols.
One of my favorite performances
The irony is it was fun, nd millions of us agree. God Bless the Sex Pistols.
The ex pistols played to the world .. They all gave it all they got . Johnny put is heart and soul into it ..
What I like about Rotten / Lydon is he don’t hold back his feelings even at a time like this he gives it truth within their last live performance & I bet he is to this day so chuffed he did.
Very Punk !
😜
PP
Legend.
So raw, this gives me goose bumps.
The last performance of sex pistols ... ingenious video!
my most favorite band of all time I was a punk when I was young this was the first band that introduce d me to punk it's crazy that now I'm older how MN much I was in love with the pistols now I see how my attitude n life style is exactly like rotten n Sid to the core u would only know if u were me it's almost scary
The Alley Chicago And Spencer's Needs To Bring In Punk T-shirts Vive le Rock Little Richard Version Because Of Sid Vicious Because Sid Vicious Was My Mentor And Taught Me Everything About Punk Rock Music And Becoming A Bass Player And Becoming A Punk Rocker
My dad has the CD album of their last gig in San Fransisco in 1978.
Been 40 years since their last gig as the original Sex Pistols
