Some very unusual UK cities for a band of even PiL's stature there - John'll be in Heston's house. Likely a byproduct of the uncertainty of the tour going ahead til the last moment.gkbill wrote: ↑12 Apr 2023, 10:19amHello,

Re: Public Image Limited
I hear a folk/Led Zeppelin influence which makes is an interesting part of Lydon's legacy to pick back up, though it hasn't really hung together here. I used to drink round Penge in South London. Wonder what the locals would think.

I do hear that Led Zeppelin influence though. A very badly played Kashmir.

Re: Public Image Limited
The value of diminishing expectations. It's neither here nor there to me, but in that better than the other songs they've recently released.

What a strange thing to realize, but Lydon is the weakest element in Public Image Ltd.
