My shots of John Lydon from the PIL gig at Warsaw Proxima last night. Couldn't really get any shots of the other members of the band from the weird side position were I ended up near the front of the stage.
John Lydon, from his stage manner, has obviously aged incredibly gracefully (can remember being an 11-year-old schoolboy and being introduced to Johnny Rotten and The Sex Pistols in 1977).
Only seen PIL once before at the Warsaw Impact Festival four years ago.
Last night, I was always going to like the famous tunes like 'This Is Not a Love Song'; 'Death Disco'; and 'Rise', but for me, 'The Body' was the tune of the night, the one that had a bit of transcendental bite.
I'm not that big on PIL but just had to be there for some kind of nostalgic value, fully remembering when the band first burst onto the scene in the late 1970s.
Of course, John Lydon deserves a lot of credit for touring in his early 60s and still delivering his own special kind of mischevious humour.
