John comes off as arrogant because he speaks his mind and is completely honest, unlike every other rock star or celebrity out there. He refuses to brown-nose or butter up any band or person, and is unafraid to be hated for his views. On Deep Purple: I thought we buried that lot years ago. Brilliant!

I can't believe that John Lydon has lived in LA for over 30 years and is a property developer. Not to mention being in commercials for butter and being on a TV reality show. It's like he has become everything he once despised. I think that's what getting old does to you. Out goes Anarchy and in comes living a millionaire lifestyle in LA. I think The Clash were an important punk band. They never sold out. Joe Strummer was never a millionaire and always was fighting for a cause. The year before he died they turned down 5 million for a reunion. That's what I call integrity. Joe was a great person and true to himself.

@rexterrocks8 жыл бұрын
Mick was brought up by his Gran in a council tower block overlooking the Weastway. The only one that you could say grew up in a different world was Joe. He went to Public school, his father was a minor diplomat. It's only Joe. He changed. He left home at the earliest opportunity. His life has been scrutinised in detail in numerous biographies. We know what he was like. We can't help the circumstances of our birth. It's what you do with your life that's important and shows who you really are. It's about what you become. The Clash had integrity. They lost money on records they put out due to doing things like double albums for the price of one and even triple albums. They never made money as a band. They even used tour money to pay for soul legend Jackie Wilsons hospital bill. Just because someone went to a public school means nothing. Ask yourself would Joe Strummer be on TV commercial or a reality show. Would Mick,Topper or Paul, You must be joking. I love John, who couldn't but I admit I don't like people I admire going all corporate.. I think the other thing is that The Clash wrote about things that were important to them. They had a real message they wanted to share. The Sex Pistols didn't really have a message in the same sense. Great band, great look and a 'don'y give a fuck attitude. They never said they weren't interested in money did they They gave the establishment a good kick up the arse which was much needed. To be honest I think I was wrong to write that about them.. In the same situation I would probably do the same as John and Iggy . I know John does things for charity and is a nice guy.
