Music: Love Grows Where My Rosemary Goes

[Paul K]

Looks like we have uncovered some musical talent here - Dave and Paul

Well, Dave maybe but certainly not me - don't let the mere presence of a Fender Strat fool you. The musical talent in the K household resides with my daughters, the younger being one grade below concert standard on the piano, while the elder is similarly qualified on both piano and euphonium, of all things. Still, as Dave says, we could play little but loudly - it didn't do the Sex Pistols any harm.

Yes, he was in the Sex Pistols.

[Garry Russell]

He joined the Sex Pistols then learned to play the base with his first concert a few days later

[Paul K]

Never had you pegged as a punk era historian, Garry.

Apparently Sid asked Lemmy, the bassist for Motorhead, to teach him to play the bass. "I can't play bass" Sid told Lemmy. "I know" was the reply!

I'm not into punk

I read it at the time and was disgusted by it and never forgot it

Getting paid a fortune for not being able to play

[Paul K]

I don't think Sid ever got paid a fortune, Garry, nor the rest of the band.

[Garry Russell]

They were earning more than I was at the time.....for nothing

[Paul K]

Well yes, now you put it like that
