He really seemed upset by "this little girl at the Dairy Queen who doesn't dip a chocolate cone properly."

A legal letter has been sent by John's lawyers to the producers of FX's Pistol today.

The fact that the series is being described as "a dramatization" rather than "a factual documentary" does not excuse it from the prospect of being subject to scrutiny for defamation.

John will not hesitate to pursue legal action to protect his reputation.

Will we be able to purchase NFTs of this letter, Mr. Rotten?

edit: I was really looking forward to watching this series anyway, but I like the potential Streisand effect he's building for it.

Yeah, he’s not doing himself any favors. As someone who doesn’t know much (or care much) about Johnny or the Sex Pistols, I’m probably going to watch now just because I’ve seen his tweets/statements complaining about it all over my Twitter timeline. Probably wouldn't have tuned in if not for that…

Oh, if only he was that slick. But Marky's right that this is because it's Steve's story, not his.

Got sent an email for a limited editon blue vinyl.

When A&M destroyed those singles they also destroyed the master plates. So unless you have one of the original copies that escaped you are not hearing it at it's best. McLaren said the Virgin release never sounded as good.
