Age merely a number for punk rock pioneer
Nottingham Post
|June 30, 2025
THE original godfather of British punk, John Lydon, and the other three members of Public Image Ltd were on blistering form at Rock City on Friday night.
The performance was an extra date on their This Is Not The Last Tour that was slipped into their schedule because of the cancellation of The Stone Valley, North, South and Midlands Festivals, at which they were due to perform.
Who would have thought that Lydon could still command a crowd 50 years after igniting punk rock's explosive debut, yet on the intimate and atmospheric stage he proved that age is merely a number and that rebellion remains ageless.
