Well it's no surprise that the three talking Pistols would get some further milage out the recent set up with Frank Carter, but the the appearance of The Stranglers on the bill did surprise me. I am assuming that the Margate gig will get an expanded bill along the lines of the gig in Glasgow. Who's your money on then? I'll put a fiver on it not being PiL! I'll get shot down but 999 would go down a treat!
Talking of Johnny, I was also surprised to see the bill for SLF's next Belfast shindig, featuring PiL on the same bill as Sham 69. I thought that Johnny and Jimmy harboured a particular animosity towards each other. I do remember fisticuffs between the two at an airport or something... a story that made page 20 of The Sun! I assume this bad feeling stems back to the Sham Pistols thing that was momentarily the big story for the music press in '79.
