I didn't go to that show (and have no idea why) but I saw a lot of good shows at The Kingfish in the late 70's. It was the best small venue in BR by a long shot. It was probably similar to what The Chimes is today. Talking Heads did a good show there early in their career (77, MSABAF era). I also remember seeing a really good Jean-Luc Ponty band there (Allan Holdsworth, Daryl Stuermer, Eddie Jobson, Ralphe Armstrong, Steve Smith) in about '78-79.

Don't try to deny the Sex Pistols and their influence on punk rock...
Meh. Almost all of it was bad. The Sex Pistols are no more real a band than N Sync. Malcolm McLaren found a few stupid dopes to stand in costumes to market his store and ape much more talented bands. He tried the same crap with Dolls.
It's a shame they are the standard templar for punk, as they are one of the very worst punk bands and just a terrible example of the whole genre. They sucked, but became famous for essentially being obnoxious and outrageous on TV a few times. Guh.
The Pistols are pretty much Example A of why American punk is so much better than British punk. Dude, they have a song whining about major labels not siging them. STFU. Do it yourself. We didn't need corporate overlords like you did.
