Rotten: Eagles are still rubbish, irrelevant

· by

Desperado and one-time TV reality show participant John Lydon still doesn't care for the Eagles, he recently spouted off to The Telegraph in a lengthy interview promoting some U.K. reunion shows next week. The Telegraph writes, ''"And the Eagles - the Californian soft-rockers, who directly inspired the Sex Pistols' first eruption, and have uncannily just re-appeared with their first album in 28 years? '''They're irrelevant. A band like that doesn't write songs that mean anything.' Another dramatic pause, fraught with glowering menace. '''We're the Charge of the Light Brigade, with decent generals, right?'''''"

The crusty, cantankerous, curmudgeon still got it, eh? Nice to see at 51 years he's still swinging for the fences, even if going after the Eagles is like snapping a rabbit's neck. C'mon, Johnny, aim higher. How 'bout Pete Doherty, or at least people who try to look like Pete Doherty: "They're all got up like Sid Vicious, and poor Sid hadn't got a clue how to dress!" That's better, you're getting there. Here's hoping you're saving the real witty quips for the stage, like you did at last month's L.A. gig.
