So convincing is the live show that the BBC, Sky TV, Channel, Fox t.v (in the u.s) And lately the new movie 'Who Killed Nancy?' (due out Feb 09) have all hired this band for re-enactments in film & T.V documentaries as the Sex Pistols/Sid & Nancy.
The Sex Pistols Experience are the ONLY Pistols tribute to have had the thumbs-up of approval from all the original band members and many of the 'inner circle'! Whilst on tour in the U.S.A they were invited as 'special guests' of Pistols Guitarist Steve Jones in Los Angeles, being interviewed & playing songs live together on air to million's of listeners on Steve's radio show 'Jonesy's Jukebox'. Pistols Bassist Glen Matlock guested on the same bill in Liverpool at the only ever u.k Sex Pistols convention day, commenting:- "A lot of fun - the cheeky buggers!!" Then the Granddaddy of Punk & infamous leader 'Johnny (Rotten) Lydon' himself gave the final seal of approval in 2008 at the Sex Pistols aftershow party in London when 'Johnny Rotter jnr' & 'Johnny Rotten snr' finally came face to face.! Mutual respect was shown all around... "Well good f'kin' luck with it" he said as they parted. Sid Vicious's guitarist 'Steve Dior' performed with them on stage at London's legendary 100 Club, and the band regularly tour with Ed Tenpole Tudor, star of the Sex Pistols film ‘The Great Rock n Roll Swindle’.
No other Sex Pistols show has the commitment to perfecting the look and sound down to every last detail, making sure every concert performed is as dynamic, explosive & exciting as the 'real deal'. They have all the spirit & energy of the bands peak 1977 period, blended with the ability of the seasoned musicians of the later reformation tours.
