Sex Pistols bassist Glen Matlock has weighed in on the idea of the punk band doing an ‘ABBA Voyage’ style hologram show with late member Sid Vicious.Matlock said in a recent interview with The Mirror that he thinks that the concept of hologram shows can’t live up to the real thing. “There’s nothing better than a band playing with passion, vim and vigour in front of a live audience – in tune, with a couple of beers inside them, or a coffee, going for it,” he said.He continued: “If they can dig up some 3D imagery of Sid at this stage, that would be an achievement in itself.”Sid Vicious passed away from a drug overdose in 1979 at the age of 21.In another interview with PA, Matlock said he feels punk music can be a “small brick in the wall of change” during politically turbulent times.“In England back then there was a lot going on and there’s a direct parallel to what’s going on now,” he explained. “I’ve just put a [song] out, it’s called ‘Head On A Stick’ and that’s my equivalent of ‘Anarchy In The UK’.
There’s a lot of wrong going on and people should be held to account.“So I think we’ve come full circle, but you need some younger kids to do it.
I don’t mean they’re not doing it but I’m older, I can’t keep my finger on the pulse of everything, always.”He continued: “Punk is synonymous with being a bit more actionary and a bit more reading between the lines and not being too curtailed.
That’s what I love about punk, regardless of what it sounds like, it’s the idea. It’s a small brick in the wall of change, a little stepping stone.”Glen Matlock will be playing live with Blondie at Iggy Pop‘s ‘Dog Day Afternoon’ event at London’s Crystal Palace on July 1.
