From the standpoint of interpretive sociology, as well as from the simple standpoint of a music fan, my blog will focus on music (mostly pop, rock, and experimental) and on other related aspects, including musicians, fans, musical events, and on music's place in the world. It will explore and celebrate originality, creativity, and other artistic virtues and will observe musical and cultural trends, patterns, and developments.

Alex Cox's Film - Sid and Nancy
Great flick - I particularly like the slapstick elements and the documentary-like scenes involving the Sex Pistols, like when Sid stumbles through the glass door, or the performance on the Thames. But I also like the more surreal stuff, like Sid eating pizza and then driving off in the cab, or the "My Way" scene. Or, a scene such as this one (which appears to depict the South Brox, or perhaps the Lower East Side, circa 1978).
The Sex Pistols are an icon to this day.
