Amy Haben·
Please Kill Me is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year with a re-release and a series of readings (well, more like parties with music, alcohol, and Michael Des Barres hosting). BUST spent some time with Legs and Gillian and talked about the book, the evolution of punk, and how the show Vinyl got it all wrong.

THE TRIALS THAT FORMED THE MAN NICKNAMED “ROTTEN!”

Amy Haben·
JOHNNY ROTTEN - By Amy Haben - The incredulous John Lydon has really done something tons of people are too scared to try their whole lives-- face their fears. He jumped onstage as a young man knowing he may fail. He wasn't a trained musician, just a lower class thug with a penchant for enlisting shock and horror on the conservatives and shaking up the ABBA loving population.
