SEX PISTOLS Perform 'EMI' Live on The Jimmy Kimmel Show
On September 4, 2003, the Sex Pistols performed their song "EMI" on The Jimmy Kimmel Show, marking a significant moment in their legacy. This performance followed the release of their 1996 album "Filthy Lucre Live," which was recorded during their notable reunion tour. By 2003, the band had reunited several times for specific tours and performances after their initial breakup in 1978, including gigging as a headlining act which revived interest in their music across generations. Notably, the Sex Pistols' influence persisted into the 2000s, as they continued to be recognized for their pioneering role in the punk rock movement. Lydon's performance style often drew from his later work with Public Image Ltd. (PIL), showcasing his evolution as an artist while keeping the flame of the Pistols' rebellious spirit alive.
