Sex Pistols surprise reunion concert at 100 Club

standard.co.uk

The Sex Pistols made a surprise return to the 100 Club in London last Friday. This marked over 50 years since they first performed at the venue. They played under the name "Spots," which stands for Sex Pistols On Tour Secretly. Back in the late 1970s, they used this name to book shows when their concerts were often shut down. The band delivered a high-energy performance, featuring hits like "Pretty Vacant," "Holidays In The Sun," and "God Save The Queen." The club was packed, and the air was filled with excitement. Among the audience were famous fans including Bobby Gillespie from Primal Scream and Noel Gallagher from Oasis. Frank Carter filled in for the original lead singer, Johnny Rotten, who was absent due to a legal dispute with the band. The crowd sang along and reacted wildly, especially during "Bodies," which received the biggest response. Carter engaged with the audience, asking how many were there for their first performance. As they played, the venue felt alive with energy, and fans reminisced about their youth. Though Johnny Rotten was not present, Carter captured his spirit during the show. The band is set to perform again on Monday at the Royal Albert Hall for a charity event supporting Teenage Cancer Trust. Their return to the iconic 100 Club proved that even decades later, the Sex Pistols still know how to rock the crowd.
