In a new interview with The Independent, John Lydon continues to criticize his former Sex Pistols bandmates in light of the group’s reunion tour with former Gallows singer Frank Carter. The legendary punk frontman – formerly known as Johnny Rotten –  refuses to support the reunion, calling it, “a clown’s circus at work.” “Sorry, I’m not going to give a helping hand to this any longer,” Lydon says. “As far as I am concerned, I am the Pistols, and they’re not.” He went on to share that he would “never” rejoin the punk legends, “not after what I consider their dirty deeds, let them wallow in Walt Disney woke expectations. They’ve killed the content, or done their best to, and turned the whole thing into a rubbish childishness, and that’s unacceptable.” Three of the original Sex Pistols — guitarist Steve Jones, bassist Glen Matlock, and drummer Paul Cook — are currently touring with Carter, and will hit the US for 13 shows this fall.
