An amazing 70s punk band thats members included John Lydon aka Johnny Rotten, the singer - an artistic, yet brilliant, anarchist who was all about having his own style; Steve Jones, the guitarist - an ex-burglar who only cared about getting laid; Paul Cook, the drummer - a timid longtime friend of Steve Jones; and Glenn Matlock, the bassist - a mama's boy
Beatles fan. Matlock was eventually replaced with Rotten's old friend and the Sex Pistols' biggest fan John Simon Ritchie also known as Sid Vicious. Vicious's bass skills were limited, because he taught himself one night while on
speed, playing with a
Ramones album. After meeting Nancy Spungeon, Vicious became a herion addict, and after Nancy's murder, Vicious was to blame, although most believe Vicious was innocent. Vicious died of an overdose just several months after Nancy's murder.
