"They said no one could be more bizarre than Alice Cooper, or more destructive than Kiss... they have not seen the Sex Pistols. Tuesday night, Stone City Attractions presents live, the Sex Pistols. Banned in their own home country, England's Sex Pistols, denied admittance to the United States, the Sex Pistols bring the new wave to the Metroplex this Tuesday night, in the Longhorn Ballroom. They said it couldn't happen, but it happens Tuesday night: the Sex Pistols, live." - Radio promo
By this point in the tour, Sid Vicious, the least talented member of the band, was receiving most of the attention onstage. Other members of the band were getting fed up with his narcissistic attitude. Before the show, Steve threatened to punch him for focusing on himself and not the music. Sid hit the bottle hard before the show tonight. Being in Texas once again, he and Johnny found it appropriate to mock the "cowboys" in attendance. About half of the 1,800 in the crowd were fans, and the other half were country & western fans defending their territory against these British punks. There were also about 100 police on hand.
Tonight's performance was more of a circus than a rock show, a love-fest compared to the volatile San Antonio show. John wore an ugly pink shirt and a black glove for most of the show, while Steve wore all black, including boots, spurs, and a sheriff's star. With "Gimme a Fix" on his bare chest, Sid barely played his bass and seemed more interested in jumping around instead of performing music. Plastic cups and other assorted objects flew toward the stage for the duration of the performance. (No glass bottles were sold.) The show was all about spectacle; music was secondary.
At the end of "Holidays in the Sun," Sid got head-butted by a overzealous fan and received a bloody nose. Instead of wiping up the mess, he let the blood flow down his body, smearing it on his face and spitting it into the crowd. Johnny remarked, "Look at that... a living circus." During "Pretty Vacant," Sid took a broken bottle and vehemently carved his chest. Iggy would've been proud. He removed the pus-soaked bandage from his arm and threw it into the hapless crowd. The other band members continued the show. Although he contributed next to nothing musically, Sid knew he was stealing Johnny Rotten's limelight, which was more important to him at that point.
After a blistering version of "Anarchy in the U.S.A.," the band left the stage, and, surprisingly, the crowd yelled for more. As the band reappeared for an encore, Sid showed the audience an obscene gesture and Steve yelled, "You must be mad to want more of us!" In the middle of "No Fun," Steve confronted a heckler by throwing a couple punches and jabbing him with the headstock of his guitar.
The next morning, the Dallas newspaper read: "Most of the people last night came to see the people who came to see the Sex Pistols."
You’ll never get another band like them again 🇬🇧
so true!!! I 20 at the time missed the Atlanta gig cause I thought it would be sold out!!! Remember this is no internet caveman times....well been kickin my self for 40+ years...c'est la vie
Neither you bastard
The Damned?
Rock n Roll characters are gone.........and will never be back unfortunately.......they are a rapidly dying breed
British Punk is the Best!!!! Especially Sex Pistol!!!
Sid's mike was way LOUD. REASON REASON REASON!!!!! Love John's facial expressions. He appeared to be happy.
happy? the band in this particular time was a shit show and all hated each other and was getting their money nicked by mclaren
shit show? best show of the us tour...bands often hate eachon a tour to a new country orchestrated by an idiot (Malcolm and the Warner goons)
@@DaveAnchovies
I agree mate have fun
☠️💣☠️
I think Sod didn’t exactly have great mic technique. His count in isn’t as crazy loud. Personally how bad it is makes it great! 😂
Who is this Michael you speak of? I think you mean "mic" ;)
steve’s tone is just insane i love it
steve jones and brian may had the best sound from the 70's
@@michaelferguson7978 Both have bad perms
John looks so crazy when performing. Such intensity.
They are so sweet and lovely here...honestly...how people could be threatened by such honest energy is beyond comprehension...but speaks volumes itself...
honesty // the Truth is what people are ALWAYS afraid of . some of us really Can Not Handle it .....
“Half the time I just feel I’m the most useless cunt in the whole group. That’s the worse thing. I’m certainly the worst musician…. But I’m … I do believe this…I’m the only one left with any real sense of what this band started out to be, originally.” -Sid Vicious NME 17 December 1977
Rest in peace Sid.., May 10, 1957-Febuary 02, 1979
Vivienne Westwood recommended Malcolm McLaren try out a young lad named John as singer for his new band. McLaren auditioned Lydon (Rotten) and the rest is history. When Westwood saw Lydon she told McLaren that he wasn't the John she meant, she meant John Ritchie (Vicious). Also Sid was invited to audition for The Damned but he didn't show and Dave Vanian got the job. Sid had a deep resentment towards Vanian there after. Probably why Sid threw the glass at The Damned at the 100 Club that missed, shattered and blinded a young girl in her eye.
Well......he right about the first bit anyway.
Everything that he said in this was true he wasn't talented but over time Sex Pistols lost some of their "punk"
Bollocks, he was an absolute waste of space.
Punk turned into a circus when he joined the pistols..
Only Lydon and Matlock remained relevant.
@@bustertheboxer1343 and paul Cook
in this video i see legends and true heart of punks
one of the best intros to any song, ever.
@Philip Holmes Will have a look Philip. I'm pretty sure I wrote this comment about Pretty Vacant, not Holidays in the Sun, though....must have kept the same comment section for both songs, maybe?
It sure was great being a school kid in the 1970's so many great British bands
these people don't realize who their watching
This is my fav live performance of them!
More energy and angst than all these modern bands combined. Fucking brilliant...
my god.. Johnny was so handsome
@eL3ctr1c4L I'm a girl
I'm lookin' over the wall, AND THEY'RE LOOKIN' AT ME!!
"Look at that, a living circus." Johnny pointing at Sid. 😂🤘
There lyric's still apply to shite thats happening today...
thas cuz it's the same game.
*Their lyrics still apply to shit that's happening today...
The final vibratos that make steve are brilliant,S J as a guitar is amazing his sense of rythim is perfect one of the bests players since that day to today
rhythm
he is certainly one of the "coolest" guitar players ever. and this is one of my favorite all time riffs.
0:51 I love how he rolls his "r" in the word Histrory in this song! xP LOL
シドのワン・ツー・スリー・フォー。貫禄があってかっこいい。
ジョニーのヴォーカルは相変わらず安定してる。
Jones hits a few 'avant garde' notes at the beginning, but gets the bollocks out for the rest. John and Paul are on fire here. Proof that they could really play .
Haven't seen this for ages, it's a fantastic rock 'n' roll show.
es la primera vez q escucho sex pistols y sinceramente me encanto
Steve Jones is an epic guitarist... both for tone, rhythm and his blues styles... but anyone else notice he's pretty out of tune in places here?
i think the bass and guitar was out of tune.
He had tuning problems all the way through the tour!
didn't like how he often reverted to bedroom Chuck Berry riffs though. . .otherwise he was a solid holder with great tone
It’s punk it’s meant to be out of tune
Props to Paul Cook for keeping that shit under control for so long....
Holy shit Johnny is staring the crowd down in this vid, I'd look away, so INTENSE! Love this. LOL!
Fun to see pictures of the music you havent heard for over 43 years. Bought this on a Vinyl Bootleg "Live at Longhorn Ballroom" in 1979.😊
@Philip Holmes Yes i think im one of of their biggest fans I have 7 pictures / posters framed that hang on the wall in every room in this house. I cried like a child when one of the Johns took his life. I mean, of course, Sid Vicous

U too Jan repent 😢
The first band I listened to that really pissed my parents! lol
A night I will never forget after a 3 day 1600 mile bus trip
2023年、今見てもかっこいい✨そしてジョニー歌うまい😂
The kick drum makes up somewhat for the patchy bass playing. Cook and Jones were a great foundation.
When it comes to kick drums,Cookie is KING!
some of the greatest rock ever
this was the first punk song i learnedon my guitar i play it every live performance just becuause its to me one of the greatest punk anthems
one of mine too. . .hope you're still kicking!
best band in the world EVA! & 1 of the best songs EVA!
this is awesome!! love it!!
AHH that hits the spot. Sid was valuable as a hype man just like flavor flav was. I bet when the ramones were just starting out and joey was on drums they were like he is usless but today we all know he was the soul of that band just like sid was to his the face of the generation type thing. What happened to nancy though was just crazy even for sid RIP dude ur a fucking legend in my eyes.
You're right
不世出のPUNKバンド‼️
狂気のライブ‼️凄いパフォーマンスだ👍👍👍👍👍
唯一のパンクバンド
That US tour is one of the greatest in Rock because that kind of music was unknown and they played in the most improbable places,thanks to Malcolm choosing them. CBGB's in New York? Naw,lets do a cowboy bar in san Antonio that even hates English glam. Along with Miles in 1949 in N.Y.playing 'Birth of the Cool',Hank Williams last concert,The Dolls at Max's,Suicide in Belguim 77',Cluster playing 12 hours in Black Forest in 70',Little Richard in the South 1954,this was a career defining gig!
Malcolm was simply repeating the disastrous tour of the South that he sent the New York Dolls on in 1975. Look it up.
@@ernestodelaserna9494this show was at the Longhorn ballroom in Dallas TX,my brother went to this gig,he said the tension was high that night
yea, major mistake on the scheduling being NY clubs were where it was at.@@ernestodelaserna9494
He actually screwed up the scheduling and missed the Northern leg. They were supposed to appear on SNL on that leg.
this live is awesome even with sid doing nothing!jones gives us a lesson to every guitar player how 5th chords and riffs should be the vibrato in the end is brilliant
+tito reims he needs to learn how to tune his guitar first tho XD
@dangermouse1964 johnny is the icon, there`s no sex pistols without johnny rotten! there`s no punk rock without johnny rotten. all hail johnny rotten! there will never be another one like him EVER!
a tragic case, that Sid. Totally messed up. His own mother supplied his drugs too.
Johnny: Askvncnxkakshwoirhoeuirog`dsjasvnd
Sid: REASON!! REASON!! REASON!! REASON!!
Johnny: Ancbcvjzqoeutbgocvnsdpejhbgjb
Sid: REASON!! REASON!! REASON COÑO!! MUCHOS MAS RREASON DE LOS QUE DIJE!!! REASON!! REASON!! REASON!! xD
JAJAJJAAJAJ, Sid no sabia ni donde estaba parado
XD aguante los sex pistols
Lol
this band and nirvana is what got me into rock n roll
"Big tough Sid falls over!" 3:47 "Yeah, that's really crazy..."
Saw 'em in Memphis.
Damn weird night.
Repent now bud 😂
The greatest use of anger in music ever.
"look at that living circus"..legend!
@exploremagic23
Good decision, two very influential bands. For me, it was Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin, but I found my way around. When you think about it, all the great bands had such a unique sound, they were able to transcend genre. The Sex Pistols are certainly included on that list. We need another kick-ass movement.
one of my favrorate bands!!!!!
3:14I love John's movement too much
sid vicious,30% musician,100% punk
That doesn't even make sense. I would say something like Sid Vicious 0% musician and punk. 100% a junkie.
@@Soytu19 he is punk
Must be common core
Steve Jones is prob the best one there hes awesome. But Johnny Rotten and the drummer are good too. As for Sid....well,hes sid.
Johnnys wink at the end is gold!
@miniraptorX Actually Sid is playing. I have this on record, Its very faint but you can hear it. For God Save The Queen and I wanna be me his bass was turned up all the way then Steve turned it down. Listen for it during Steves solo's on certain songs. During Bodies, Steve actually unplugs Sids amp and thats caught on film
OMG you’d think that band are from Glasgow Scotland 🏴 what a performance what an audience excellent
John Rotten looked like a grown up to me when I 1st discovered the Sex Pistols...OMG now he looks like a baby. He was way ahead of his time. He was brilliant. & Sid who knws maybe he's still alive.
That is true and sad that Sid died on the 02.th of February 1979,I was just 7 years old and I wish that I was born much earlier to see Sid when he was still alive and make love with him
+Daniela Schwarz yes, Sid was a legend......I too wanted to see him in concert, but not make love to him !!
+Johnny Rotten Yes he was a legend and that would be great to see Sid and Johnny but I can understand you that you don´t want to make love with him,because you´re not gay,right?And that is totally okay Johnny Rotten ;-)))
+Daniela Schwarz A female who likes an artist just because of looks?? WHO WOULD'VE THUNK IT...
Are you all forgetting the fact that he murdered Nancy
I don't know why people were so down on their musicianship. This isn't far off from Chicago blues song structure technically speaking, granted revved up a bit and with half the soloing. Solid riffs clean turn arounds though, a surprisingly solid band.
Paul cook and rotten on point.
This is my favorite Sex Pistols song. No reason to be here at all.
REASON REASON REASON
John and Steve really get this song together during and after the guitar solo. As Steve plays the solo John gets right into it, quick look at Steve before it ends and off they go. And without any bass! Gives an insight to how good they were. With Glen there could have even been a second album when it would have really mattered?
Yea and the 1st album would not of been as good
I was listening to the sex pistols in 1982, and thought there would be nothing like it again..... then i saw a music video my sister showed me it was ...welcome to the jungle gnr ...it wasn't sex pistols but it had the same energy ... so we will see it again
i wish i was alive when sid was.......... i love him!
Superb performance ❤. No doubt John’s state presence owes much to Richard 111rd.
superb concert, id have shaved my grannys beard to be there,sex pistols arrival shook music to its foundations,this is my fave track from this gig along with belsen,what a shame about the break up,so much potential, my reckoning is they should have had a fifth member,to play bass,,,cme lead,then steve jones decided he wanted to be a member of "the def leppard club",not that they are bad
Holiday In Skegness And Sarajevo ❤❤
when ever john is not singing it looks like something is building up, then when he sings it comes out
Is Pure Rock and Roll
At its best
Il est évident que c’est le plus grand groupe de rock au monde.
Do you have any idea how fucked up it would be to play dallas tx in 1978 and be PUNKS......Amazing
that is very good, I was wondering if it is overdubbed, I kind of doubt it because Sid's backing vocals would have been turned down, or OFF, Jones guitaring is top class, better than just about anyone at times (if you like real rock guitar sounds) Gilmore-stuff him, Clapton-Steve is god, Cooks drumming is loose and not twisted up and it flows with no gaps and great cymbals, JR's vocals are clear and sharp, Sid is thumping out a bass line most of the time, should have turned his mic off and not told him, the pistols were either a shambles on stage or magnificent,
Often both at once.
It's not to late 😮
I had the complete tape of this show that I picked up in 1980 from a friend. I didn't know there was a video.
Johnnys facial expressions scare the shit out of me
I love them
lol love how the bass amp aint even on
It's on.
@@nkmcfrln can't hear it
@@kev4241 The power switch is on.
Because he's cooler than deep space. See the Video for 'Love Kills' by Joe Strummer from the 'Sid & Nancy' film and you'll see a loving tribute to him at the end. He was very well loved by those who knew him.
Complete shit film, if you get your pistols knowledge from that film, you don't know shit!🤬
This was cool back then but if people (the mainstream) saw this today they will all be like dude, what the heck? I still think this is whats in, Sid Lives!
This gig was completly filmed but the tape was damaged
Amazing ‼️😍🔥🎸
That sound when you goof a chord on guitar hero is pure punk.
the berlin wall is gone
the pistols are gone
whats nexts
historical set!
Mr lydon has always been outspoken , freedom of speach & he will never change
AWESOME PISTOLS
Sid played bass reasonably well on this song at Winterland, check it out.
Shit I was 15 years old when I was listening to these guys....
is anyone else impressed that sid could count to 4?
would´ve loved to see what he would´ve done if you had said that to his face
Oh my... That's awesome
Best Pistols tune.
Happy Birthday, Sid. RIP
steve jones out of tune ^^ I JUST LOVE THEM
@dangermouse1964 great talent , he couldnt play the bass proper even when sober , your right though about drugs ,
I love punk...♥️
ya nirvana is my favorite band sex pistols are my 4th
@mccann444
You're sadly mistakened, lad. I agree with you about Sid being a second frontman, but he couldn't play bass worth a shit. Everyone agrees on that, I'm sure. Glenn Matlock, on the other hand, was a founding member, really contributed to the sound that shocked the world. He deserves to be a part of the re-union.
green day people its the pistols at there finest hear that voice
Dirty and rotten as fuck!
Perhaps the best live version of this song 👍
sid is brilliant playing with the crowd THEN!!!!!! 1,2,3,4 fuckin brilliant
Pity he couldn't play the bass!
watch the live in sanfranciso stuff. His bass was plugged in and during bodies, Steve's amp fails and all you can hear is bass....not great but he was hittin the notes and timing good enough to get by..............SO HAHAHAHAHHA EVER GET THE FEELING YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT?
No.
Get your tiny brain around this.
His bass playing was wretched.
The cat could have played it better.
End.
Of.
Story.
poor old Sid :(
I'm looking over the wall, AND THEY'RE LOOKING AT ME!!
sid vicious, era y siempre sera el alma de los sex pistols
No
That was Johnny m8 lol
Bullshit! He wasn't even playing!
Was in this gig that Sid said that all cowboys are gay and someone threw him a bottle in his face and he bled out for around 20 min??
Yup... Sid said: "You cowboys are all a bunch of faggots"!
And it wasn't a beer bottle: it was a totally filled and sealed beer can made out of hardened aluminum plated steel foil like all the old school vintage beverage cans were until the mid 80's!
Plus some dumb cowboy also managed to get near him in front of the stage and gave him a butthead!
