i actually couldn't believe that.
i love kele, and i cant see how he would EVER try and use something like a fight to gain publicity for bloc party.
plus he has the same shoes as me, and i ALMOST met him, he was behind the security barrier, but couldn't hear me shouting to him :'(
but anyway, that's just lowered my opinion of john lydon. i never really liked the sex pistols anyway, but i just despise him now.
thoughts+opinions?
Psht, Popstars these days.
Can't believe he got into a fight, thats bad publicity.
set liam gallagher on them both.

Oh well, they both can't sing.
Meh its a wee bitty one sided in that article, i would say, and as usual its someone using the race card. I doubt it was an unprovoked attack.
I'm not sure who's side to be one.
I'm not sure if I beleive it was a racist attack though, when have you ever heard of a black person being prosecuted for being racist to a white person? I'm not saying that all black people, but you're never gonna get a race that has no racists at all.
The article wasn't clear on what started the fight aswell.
"the Sex Pistols were hanging out backstage at Summercase with a bunch of other bands when Okereke decided to ask Lydon if Public Image Ltd., his influential post-Sex Pistols band, would ever reunite. Guess the answer is no. The statement continues, "The Sex Pistols singer became intimidating and aggressive while his entourage responded with a racist tirade including the statement, 'your problem is your black attitude.'"Quote:

john lydon will always be a confrontational character, he's a punk fgs. as for the racist part, who knows, lydon grew up being a role model for a generation looking to be rebels, he could still have his racist opinions
oh and kele went to my secondary schooooool, init.
