"Hello...Hello...how are you doin'?"
After playing the same venue the night before, but to an audence consisting entirely of 23 year olds and above, the Pistols treat those 15 and overs thankfully now allowed to witness the lads, to a 'lightning storm of a set' Trondheim is more often than not hailed as the 'performance of the tour' but thats now being questioned with this, frankly stunning, upgrade by Sparks, The Satellite Kid.
So its neck and neck and a sprint for the tape, as stockholm, remastered and more complete than ever before, emerges from murky 'also ran' mediocrity to take its rightful place on the podium. Whether that represents a gold or silver only you can decide, Sid plays (yes...I said plays') bass, Paul beats the hell out of his kit, Steve leaps and poses like the guitar hero he is and Rotton is mesmerising.
While still suffering from the two cuts in the tape, one between 'EMI' and 'Sub-Mission' and one during 'No Feelings'(a track that many will not have heard from this show before) the savage version of 'Seventeen' more than compensates, with Rotton, the manic prophet of doom declaring musical armageddon
