Sex Pistols announces more tour dates with new singer
Sex Pistols reunited last August 13 and 14 in support of the campaign “God Save The Venue”, which was created in order to save Bush Hall, a small club located in London, which was built in 1904 and was the birthplace of many independent bands over the decades.

However, the original singer John Lydon is not part of the tour and the line-up is formed by the original members Steve Jones (Guitar), Paul Cook (Drums) and bassist Glen Matlock.

Why John Lydon wasn’t part of the Pistols reunion
It is known that the relationship between them and Lydon was never easy. And of course, the singer was not happy at all when Jones partnered with FX to make the 2022 TV show “Pistol”, which told the band’s story from his point of view.
He even sued the band at the time trying to prevent that the songs of the band were used on the show. But he lost the legal battle and the show was released with the original tracks.
