Now that is where you are wrong. Megadeth's "Anarchy" is pure fucking ownage!

Growing up in England I have huge respect for the sex pistols. Love they're music and respect what they did.

I would dispute almost that entire list... except for the Sex Pistols.

But to me, the sad thing about this tour is not that their music isn't that good and never really was; it's that these guys were supposed to be the quintessential fuck-you, anti-authoritarian, anti-selfish-old-cunts-just-out-to-make-a-buck band... and the very fact of doing this high-profile, high-priced nostalgia tour proves they have become the very thing they were meant to oppose.

Sex pistols are respected here in U.K, im in agreement that they're probably crap now, but i still respect what they done.

In the seventies when the U.K was looking grim, they released a lot of energy and hate from the public, and allowed the u.k the progress forward.

I think its good that they decided to do a reunion, but it doesnt really interest me.

So many bands aren't as good as they were when they first started out, i.e motely crue, metallica, megadeth, police, motorhead etc. its a natural thing

At the end of the day, they're making there fans happy?!?!?!
