Uh, so Simon would be adopted, Chris died because of illness. Anne is already changing the name of Beverly Anne was so alone anymore. But this time they were more settled life as Chris comes from a wealthy family. Simon went on an expensive private school.
Drop Out
But go to a school rich man turned out to form the soul of Simon (Sid) to be dissidents. Maybe he's already sick of the same school rules that are too tight. For example wrote, he ignored the senior-senior starter if he already did not trust anymore the same name of God.

They both often ngelakuin crazy things like experimenting with makeup. Simon cool painted her nails with a shiny varnish and streets pake sandals. Then John was busy making her hair so kriwil-kriwil be really big.

To continue living, they both work odd jobs again. From working the restaurant, shoe shop until ngamen in the subway ever they did. Something funny about ngamen at the train station. Sid story already prepared with the guitar, while John's already ready with his violin. But there is one problem. They absolutely can not play it. Man, are they just joget-joget while holding the instrument while sing a song from Alice Cooper repeatedly.
If the above methods is still lacking as well, Sid did not fear legal ngelanggar too. He was determined to be drug dealers, although in small amounts. Crazy again, sometimes too desperate Sid nyari money in gay bars. He sometimes when I'm drunk willing ditanggap and get money darisana.
At the time Sid and John also had a gang that like to hang out at a clothing store in the King's Road. Sex shops have names that would eventually become the starting point of entry into the Sex Pistols Sid. Sid contents gang of four men calling themselves the Four John. Four John here is because its members are all named John. As already mentioned, Sid had the name John Simon, continued there was John Lydon, John Wardle and John Gray.
Owner Sex, Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood've really understand if any of these four men crazy. They hate the name of luxury and jet set circles glamoran England. Sometimes they like fun continues ngebakar their hands with cigarettes and other hurtful things.
Sex Pistols
Ornery and violent life for the Sex Pistols
August 1975, Malcolm McLaren, owner of the shop "Sex" intends to remodel his store. He already had a new concept to make his store sold so place tongkrongan. In addition to selling various punk accessories, she also sells fetish gear and a wide range of goods from genuine leather.
Along with that, Malcolm also wanted his store to be the center tongkrongan punk kids are again flourishing in London. He hopes to melesatkan this punk trend through the "workshop culture". The trick, yes he was also a scout who nyari punk bands who want diorbitkan.
Incidentally, he also already has his people. There, already there are guitarist Steve Jones, bassist Glen Matlock and drummer Paul Cook who was working part-time on Sex. Incidentally they've direken as impromptu musicians who have a future by Malcolm. Now living nyari frontman.
Jhony Rotten
Well, coincidentally (again) John Lydon is still hanging out at the Sex can attract the attention of Malcolm. Atittude crazy and make a sloppy guy who had become manager of the New York Dolls is kesengsem.
Not so long ago, John Lydon had auditioned. Tetep Alice Cooper song ...! Man, but John's voice is rada fals even make this blond guy admitted into the band. Let more nge-punk, Malcolm changed the name to John Lydon Johnny Rotten. (Even though he just had his best friend so ngeganti name Sid Vicious!). So, stand with four formations Sex Pistols: Johnny Rotten, Paul Cook, Glen Matlock and Steve Jones.
Their first appearance was in St. Martin School of Art in West End on November 6, 1975. They are thought to bring new music that is "dangerous" because it obviously is not good didenger (especially voice vocalist) and the wild. Well, that's what brought the Sex Pistols at the beginning of its emergence. The term also has become a popular punk crowd. Steve Jones even made a statement that until now known as the image of the Sex Pistols. He said, "We're not into music, we're into chaos!" So it's punk attitude emang 90 percent, the rest of music.
Until 1976, the fever hit the UK Sex Pistols. Everyone is talking about this crazy band. One of the fans that stuck Sid Vicious. He even sempet ngiri because of his friend so that her first vocalist clay appearance in Sex in December 1975. Funny thing is, the relationship is close to Sid and Johnny Pistols did not ketauan other personnel.
Sid was trying to want to know the other band members. Pengen kayak diakuin, Sid always wanted to help Pistols in action is sometimes not fair. Imagine, here the band did not want to appear on schedule. Pengennya immediately appear impromptu, and this was possible in places that are not prevalent. Sure wrote that angry is the security. Kalo udah gini, et al Johnny often threatened to riot. Well, if already there is chaos command of Johnny, Sid must intervene bantuin Pistols.
Band Buttcrack
Atittude punknya increasingly become. Worse, Sid is also taking drugs that are sometimes kind of speed injection. Kalo udah gini, he often really getting into fights in bars and on the band's performances. Same sense of love for punk bands also arise because of the increasingly hearing the first album of The Ramones. In fact, bassist, Dee Dee Ramones, maketh as a hero.
Unfortunately, Sid's behavior leads to a more brutal direction. Each Pistols gig, there must be a commotion. And behind it would Sid Vicious. He once beat up people who dudukin where Vivienne Westwood (his friend, the designer who also designed the clothes in Sex) without the say-say. Whether looking for attention or not, but Sid then increasingly become the icon for the Pistols. Moreover, in a press release Pistols have a statement of "We Hate Everything". The press is more convinced if Pistols band chaotic.
Sid's behavior is always in order to defend his friend in the Pistols. He even had the same noise of a heavy metal band because they do not want minjemin tool to Pistols. As a result, Sid digebukin. For him that's okay as long digebukin ngebela friend. Sid began dapet the attention of other members of the Pistols.
June 1976, Pistols've mastered English. Pistols already become icons in the London punk scene. Together they Sid is also a concern in that scene. They always wear clothes from Sex. Well, maybe this is endorsing a form of promotion. Apparently sponsor apparel industry already occurred to punk at that time.
Sid sempet also form a group of lovers of the Sex Pistols with Billy Idol as the Bromley Contingent. Not only that, he also formed a band with a name sempet Siouxie and The Banshees. Sempet addition, he also formed a band called The Flower of fraudulent Romance. Practically idle since the band formed in the studio, never make a recording, and even never gig. Basic!
But the more closely the trademark chaotic Pistols. One of the terrible events that occurred at the 100 Club Punk Festival. At the Pistols gig, Sid threw the glass at the stage. But the glass instead hit a pillar of the room. Fractions on a visitor's eyes girl. Later known if she's going blind because of the incident. As a result, Sid detained by police. Pistols fined. The press dubbed Sid-5 as a member of the Pistols. The edges are not allowed ngadain 100 Club gig again. Apes!
More troubled, there was good news. Malcolm, the manjer successfully nembusin Pistols to EMI label with the advance of 40 thousand pounds. Man, that number is really big for the size of an unknown band. But because it did not already be a gig, so feel embarrassed EMI had a band bengal.
But again, Sid came in handy. Pistols were punk diselundupin at every festival. Band The Flower of Romance so cover-na. As soon as The Flower was called, which appears instead Pistols. Rock!! Seru abis.
Behind the riots he called Pistols, the band turned out to have internal problems. Anyone who wondered if the bassist Glen Matlock was not preferred ma other personnel. The reason is because he was too calm and come from middle-class. Continue? Yes, it turns out that condition is considered less radical by other personnel.
They were thought to kick Glen Matlock out. And ... enter Sid!
End of Life Rocknrollstar
