Sex Pistols

In the autumn of 2002, when the Sex Pistols performed "Pistol Whipped" in California, they stood at a unique crossroads in their storied career. This live recording came a significant time after the band had released their iconic debut album, *Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols,* back in 1977. While the band had experienced a tumultuous breakup and brief reunion in the late ’80s, by 2002, they were riding the nostalgic wave of punk's resurgence, touring to reconnect with both old fans and a new generation. Interestingly, this performance marked one of their rare live shows in the early 2000s, showcasing their raw energy and rebellious spirit that defined the punk movement. The video capturing this moment has only recently been made public, adding an extra layer of excitement for fans eager to relive or discover the essence of one of punk's most incendiary icons.
