Sex Pistols featuring Frank Carter announce rescheduled and expanded North American tour

Sex Pistols with Frank Carter.

Sex Pistols featuring Frank Carter have announced a rescheduled North American tour, with additional shows and venue upgrades in some cities.

Last September, the English punk legends were forced to cancel their planned North American tour when guitarist Steve Jones broke his wrist.

In a jokey new statement, the guitarist says, "Mr. Jones here with an update on my wrist, I think it’s good enough to do the upcoming tour, now if I can just stop my legs from buckling up, I think I’ll be in good shape."

In a nod to the Pistols' first infamous and chaotic US visit, this year's tour will kick off on September 11 at Dallas's historic Longhorn Ballroom, marking the band's first return to the venue since 1978.

At each stop, fans can expect to hear Never Mind The Bollocks played in its entirety, along with additional material spanning the group's short-lived but hugely influential career.

On their first US tour in 1978, the Sex Pistols faced hostile, and in some cases dangerously violent, audiences in every city they visited: Steve Jones later recalled the trek as "a fucking circus", and "no fun".

"The audience was throwing everything from bottles to rats to pig’s ears at the stage," drummer Paul Cook told The Times newspaper in 2024. "They had read about us being British devils, come to destroy their country, so they thought it was what they were meant to do... I thought someone was going to get killed."
