Steve Jones

Happy Birthday to old Punk Steve Jones, 54 today. That's Steve, looking young and (relatively) thin, to the right of John Lydon.
A bloke I used to work with went to school with Steve Jones and Pistols' drummer Paul Cook, back in Shepherd's Bush, or "The Bush" as it's apparently called. But, as he's a total blues-obsessive and doesn't listen to anything else, he never saw them play live. D'oh!!

  1. hey there-I can't remember if I've left a comment before. I saw your link on a comic book blog, and check it occasionaly. I saw "The Filth and the Fury", and thought Jones came across as a dedicated musician who really wanted to make the band work, and he had a great sense of humor, too.
