Anarchy Tour 1976

In October 1976 the Sex Pistols signed their record deal with EMI and recorded their single 'Anarchy In The UK'. A tour was hurriedly put together by the Sex Pistols management to promote the single; showcase their band and punk rock in general. The December 'Anarchy Tour' was confirmed with the Damned and the Clash as support, with Johnny Thunders' Heartbreakers flying in as special guests from New York. It was the first time that fans outside of London could really get close to what was happening. Then, after the infamous two-minute "foul-mouthed" December 1 television appearance opposite Bill Grundy on the Today programme, punk became front page news and within days, 16 out of 19 halls cancelled. The Damned only lasted the first gig. The story goes that the tour was prevented from becoming the trailblazing nationwide package it could've been. The tabloid storm that followed the 'Grundy' incident meant punk was defined and commodified by the media. Most commercial radio stations refused to play the Sex Pistols, and only John Peel played 'Anarchy In The UK' at the BBC. EMI backing out financially halfway through also put a huge financial strain on all the bands. By mid-December there were very few venues in the country that would consider having the bands. Every concert that was played seemed a minor miracle.In the end they played just 7 dates at 5 venues.

You're kinda both right. The Pistols were more or less assembled by McLaren. But, it's also true that if there were no Pistols, there's no Clash, no X-Ray Spex, no Buzzcocks...lots of those early bands started as a direct result of Pistols gigs.

You are a retard. Malcom McLaren dreamed up this idea of The Sex Pistols being a boy band for the plot of The Great Rock and Roll Swindle. The Clash may be the only band that mattered but if it wasn't for the Sex Pistols the Clash would never have existed, and according to your logic would have based themselves on a manufactured product. I DONT THINK SO.

The Pistols a boy band? That may have been Malcolm McLaren's original intention but they went far beyond that Bay City Roller expectation. If the Pistols were put together to make money off of "stupid kids" then the Clash of whom I also very much enjoy are also "stupid kids", they and many others such as Nirvana are also "stupid kids". Don't try to slag off legends.

The Pistols were a boy band put together to make money off of dumb kids. They put out one good album that's it. The Clash are the only band that ever matter! Fuck the Pistols!
For those considering buying a new vehicle, don't forget to check out the new 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser. Great for adventures off road, just for cruising around town, or running to the store.

The new 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser seats five and comes in two-tone with a Voodoo Blue, Titanium Metallic, Black Diamond, Sun Fusion, Sandstorm or Brick body color and White top. The interior fabric color is Dark Charcoal, while the dash, center instrument panel trim and the door inserts match the body.
