CANCELLED SEX PISTOLS SHOW - TICKET AND CUTTING
TUESDAY 3rd JANUARY 78 - ALEXANDRIA ROLLER RINK, ALEXANDRIA, VIRGINIA
The Sex Pistols USA tour got off to a late start due to visa problems. Four known dates were cancelled, the last of which was at the Alexandria Roller Rink, in Alexandria, Virginia. The band finally made their American debut two days later in Atlanta, Georgia.
Fan Jeffrey Lee remembers: "You'll never ever know how ultimately disappointed I was at missing this show..... What a mess huh? I'm 52 now, and I still have a missing piece of rock and roll history to lament. I couldn't make the show in Georgia....that was simply out of the question. Oh well...right? One day I'll send our state department a thank you card for all their foot dragging and wise decision making regarding this debacle! The roller rink is long demolished." |
