Seen em a couple of times and enjoyed both. Lydon almost operatic at times, quite enjoyable

Never seen Pil live but the Pistols I have in 2007 in South London I must admit the atmosphere was pure nuts on a scale i haven't seen before as they walked on stage from the streets off the roundabout oneway system straight onto the stage for an opening of Pretty Vacant that was electric to Steve's opening guitar intro..just pure nuts..
The Pil's new stuff and in particular i like and sometimes play is ..Penge...basically I listened to it because I hanged about a lot with my mate who lived there in South Londons Penge...anyway great track and some of the very early PIl material was good too,so those who are going enjoy hopefully a great night...Good to see lydon back doing his music and gigs again good for him.

Good use of the word "minges"

Saw PIL last year in Leeds for the first time. Do regret not going to see one of my fave guitar players Mr Jeff Beck in York the same night though but still, PIL were great and I got to hear many of my fave songs inc one of my all time faves songs/ guitar riffs - ‘Public Image’.
Enjoy!
Shush this is serious

The gig was excellent. Mr Lydon is a sight to behold. So glad I went.

Having said that, in the same venue, Devo had the crowd way more up than PiL.
