I love John Lydon! He is his own man and will not go along with the crowd. I have been both a Sex Pistols and PIL fan forever. I just bought his new book “Anger is an Energy” and look forward to reading it.

"Heineken is not the best beer in the world" LOL. I love John Lydon...I think he is the only person in the media who tells the truth 100% of the time...oh and Bill Hicks also (R.I.P.). Those two men changed my entire outlook on everything.

He said he would play for Palestinians too and any other Arab countries and crowds if they had ever invited him to. It won't let me post the link, but if you look at the interview he did with Sky News (18th July - it's on the related links) you'd hear him say just that.

John Lydon unlike everyone else in this world speaks the truth like no one else you will hear.

"You must love being alive; if you don't you're doing everything wrong".

Absolutely love Johnny. He is so hilariously entertaining here! LOL

A smart Guy.

I absolutely adore this man. The most fascinating, authentic, intelligent, talented, absolutely gorgeous and goddam sexy rock star on the planet. ❤❤❤❤

Lydon is funny/inteligent as always....

I was just thinking the same, I love him more for that!

Keep him.

He can do what he likes.

If u are smart and really think of life and the way things are now john was ahead of are time still is I wonder what he thinks of everything with wAr and the government of Canada and other problems with cuntrys . 🐐♾️

PIL still moving forward. Most bands are marking time. Icon amongst the Chinese punks. God in Japan and still does his own thing. So Elvis Costello wimped out. No change there then.

Brighton Punk co.uk Punk Rock Daddy co. uk "Brighton Punk" was a movie screened in Feb. 1978 it includes The Molesters Wrist Action Viv Westwood Jordan also known as Pam Sid Vicious John Rotten Don Letts Chas Chandler Richard Hell and The Voidoids , it has a star studded cast. . Also Includes The UK Subs.Pirahhnas, etc. etc.

Punk Rock Daddy co. uk also mentions "The Student" and "Brighton Punk" also includes Sid Vicious as well as I say a star studded cast.It is good for Film Students to note . I hope it in the Film School curiculum. Eh Film Students.Knbow what I mean.

@barkingbasher The fact that I am right is proven by academics and young people who are leaving the country because they do not agree with its policies but most Israelis do and the atmosphere for dissidents is very intolerant.

But, when you have misunderstood the aim of the firing gun, you miss the intent. It is YOU. YOU are the one's who continue to BUY their squalor and their filth. YOU, who bring home the t.v. set and the cable to corrupt. So WHO is to blame? Those who are wanting are those who are in wait. Or, you get what you asked for. So sit back in that easy chair and wait for that next "State of the Union" address. What vile and corrupt surprises are we in store for? What new and improved nothing will they force down our throat?

Of course that would never have happened because there was no need for the US to gain a foothold in Europe to get at oil reserves.

For some reason my last comment hasn't come up - Zionist censorship - only joking! Anyway, if he wants to be controversial and/or punk rock he should say that he also supports the Palestinians. I see his point about 'you are people' but if there's the beginnings of a cultural boycott it should be supported by anyone who is fair-minded. South Africa would have never changed without the boycotts and and sanctions and nor will Israel sadly.

Lydon can talk about himself until the cows come home. Lydon has boundless energy to talk about ...Lydon. He revels in the attention in the same way that an X factor contestant craves to be noticed. Butter, beer and banality.

John defends Michael Jackson. Who would have guesed?

He's gonna perform with PIL at the Royal Variety show in front of the Queen with a rework of a Sex Pistol's number. It goes: God save the Queen*, The fascist regime, I'll still sing for her, Cos she's a human being. God Save the Queen*, Cos she puts Country Life butter on her crumpets, It's not about Great Britain, It's about great butter. God save the queen*, We mean it man*, We love our queen*, God saves. *No irony or sarcasm insinuated.

Heineken is not the best beer in the world !! ha ha

Most Jews and Israelis want the palestinians to have their own state. Its in our own best interest, the last thing we want is war. Thing is, they had their own state from 2005 to be a future paradise for them. But look how it turned out.

Lydon doesn't care which country you're from - he''ll take money from anyone!

he points out class struggle always - which has been the bane of humanity since civilization started...voice of freedom hero....he contradicts himself a lot which makes it even funnier, close to being a Repub

John Lydon doesn't tell it like it is. He needs to be more articulate to pull that off. He tells it how he thinks it is. He expresses his own partial view, not an impartial view. There is a difference.

he's made some very good and occasionally great music,but I'm sure he's intellectually honest enough to admit that his stuff doesn't even begin to compare with,say,dead can dance or joy division or led zeppelin or steely dan,but he's a top fella nonetheless

What a shame

Not terribly erudite but there we are. If he wanted to be really controversial and/or punk rock, or at the least, fair, he would have said that he also supports the Palestinian people. I wonder if his band had the 'bollocks' to play 'religion; by the way. Never mind, THIS is religion - YOUR religion!!!! And it's not a pretty sight!

ELVIS COSTELLO's statement quoted by DEMOCRACY NOW captures what Lydon fails to capture. Lydon was there for his own self-interest !

@LibertyMike1 I am sorry BUT you are WRONG ! The movement in Israel is NOT about Palestinian rights or suffering it is the middle class not being able to afford to live there anymore. I can assure you my research is better than yours !!

If Lydon wanted to be genuinely 'punk rock' he would have told the press conference that he also supports the Palestinian people. He's supposed to be about telling the truth, right? I understand his point that the Israelis, of course, 'human' and therefore have the right to attend his gig, but there is an emerging cultural boycott of Israel which he should support. Just like South Africa in the '80s, Israel will never change unless pressure is put on it to do so. That's my '2 cents' anyway.

unkle ace it's called augustiner. they still produce beer in wooden kegs, which is a totally different thing, plus they are almost the only brewery left, that doesnt already belong to international corporations like anheuser busch. their beer is the most sold in munich, even though they never spend a cent on advertising, plus, they could sell a lot more, but refuse, saying they can't keep that level of quality on a larger scale. if you ever happen to come to munich, don't go to the tourist trap hofbräuhaus, but go to where they still sell augustiner from wooden kegs, the champagne of beers. just look at the label, that hasnt changed in centuries i think. when you drink from a bottle, you dont take it from the freezer, but from the basement. only shitty beer needs to be ice cold, so you dont taste its shitty taste. you can even drink half a bottle, leave the open bottle on the table (maybe not in august, when it's really hot) then finish the bottle the next day and it still tastes great. cheers. polpix.sueddeutsche.com/polopoly_fs/1.419313.1357629414!/httpImage/image.jpg_gen/derivatives/900x600/image.jpg gongyo.de/blog/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/augustiner_bierflaschenkerze-188x400.jpg

Perhaps if you were abit more informed about the situation in 'Israel/Palestine' you might have YOUR own thoughts. The situation for the Palestinians is worse than it was for the black South Africans. At least they were not robbed of their country. Check your facts first.

@barkingbasher Who are YOU ! Israel is a Settler State ...the entire population is either in the army or ready at any moment to grab their uniform and report. You CANNOT say like Lydon is implying that there is the same division between people and system that exists in the UK or Finland it is NOT the same !!

Words fail me I'm afraid. The only 'defence' I can give for his comments suggesting that because (at the time) the Arab world didn't have a 'democracy' 'noone has a right to complain about the way they are treated' is that he was trying to defend the indefensible. Never a good place to be....

Anti-semetic has nothing to do with Israel the country or the plight of the Palestinians. Israel should simply *never have existed in the first place*. The proper solution after WW2 would have been setting aside a chunk of Germany, not the Middle East.

Sorry i misread the description i thought it said "John Lydon on Israel" thought for once he had something interesting to say!, the approved "punk" of the establishment and habitual liar, "never mind the bollocks" credit card anyone?
