THIS `PUNK SPECIAL`..HEADLINED BY THE PISTOLS AND CLASH AND SUPPORTED BY SUZIE AND THE BANCHEES...with SID.....you know the one----if everyone who ever claimed attendance had actually been there, it would have been at WEMBLEY!!.
The Festival on the 20th & 21st in the tiny 100 Club in Oxford Street was a promotional showcase designed by Maclaren to impress record companies and the media that Punk was big enough to have a festival. He must have been delighted as 500 inquisitive newcomers turned up to mingle with the regular punk faces. Punk was breaking out of the small clubs and the media frenzy following, would give it significant impetus.
Check these dates out below to see how significant this 100 Club gig was....
9th October The Sex Pistols sign to EMI for £40,000. A spokesman for the label says: "They've got to happen for all our sakes.". 10th October The Sex Pistols enter Lansdowne Studios with producer Dave Goodman. 14th October They try again, this time with EMI staff producer Mike Thorne. 17th October Now with Chris Thomas at the controls, the Pistols record at Wessex Studios.
19th November Sex Pistols' debut 45, "Anarchy In The U.K.", is 'Sounds' magazine's single of the week. 28th November Punk rock gets the LWT treatment on 'The London Weekend Show', hosted by Janet Street-Porter. 29th November The Sex Pistols' show at Lancaster Poly is banned by authorities who don't want "that sort of filth in the town limits". 1st December The Sex Pistols appear on the 'Today' show. The host, Bill Grundy: "Say something outrageous." Steve Jones: "You dirty bastard ... You dirty f....er ... What a f....in' rotter!" The TV station is deluged with complaints, one irate lorry driver puts his foot through his television screen in disgust.
...........THIS POSTER IS FRAMED AND IS IN GOOD CONDITION BUT HAS SOME LIGHT CREASING AND SOME LIGHT FOLDS BUT LOOKS GREAT IN THE FRAME.
