Struggling to think of a single figure from the punk era who wouldn't have been an HR nightmare. Strummer maybe.

Strummer would go AWOL to Europe for weeks to hide from his boss, but at least he never stuck up for his subordinates when they were being bullied incessantly in the workplace

Legit beef or staged?

what a surprise I'm on Team Everybody but John fucking Lydon

I don't think it was staged, Marky looked genuinely mad

Assume Lydon just likes to insult people, especially turning it on whilst in Johnny Rotten character and, much like a Don Rickles audience, you’re expected to play along.

Johnny Rotten really looks like a potato.

Eh...I guess you would not expect any different a result. One thing I always got that was Lydon blamed the nyc punk rock junkies for hooking Sid bad onto smack, so it was not unexpected for him to be hostile to an old nyc punk. Marky also threw some shade towards in the MC5 in that exchange too.

Marky obv. from the apolitical it's only rock 'n' roll school but Lydon is talking garbage, of course.

Before the PiL show last year there was a $50 meet n greet, I assume it was just a few minutes of personalized abuse from Lydon.

Marky is an oaf, Lydon is a clown

TBH kinda was hoping Marky would get up and deck Rotten that whole time

Punk's not dead, I just find it difficult to care about it in 2019.

really sad to watch them argue about the things that happened between 1976-1981

john lydon is a fucking idiot these days and has been a has been for a very long time, but he can never erase the importance of his old bands.

but i'm there are fuckups (Karl Malone), Sunday, 10 March 2019 07:53 (five years ago) link

I don't know, John always seems to be playing a character in public. I've heard tell that he's much more approachable in person. God help you if you're a clueless member of the press, though.
