Yes, but I don't think they saw the Pistols play until they came back the
following year, 77. Dee Dee talks about this in his book (his anecdotes about
Sid are from 77, not 76). On July 4th 1976, according to the history books, the
Pistols were playing a gig of their own, and were not at the Roundhouse gig.
Maybe at Dingwalls, though.
In the beginning when Sid joined the Pistols he practised a lot and
learned to play very quickly.
Paul Cook said that some of the best Pistols shows ever where the first
shows with Sid on bass.
His drug problems with heroin came later and then they even turned off
the bass because Sid played very badly.
Sid was a bif Ramones (and Abba !) fan.
If you wanna know more about him and the Pistols, read Johnny Rotten´s
autobiography "No Irish, no blacks, no dogs"
"I only fell in love twice - once with a beer bottle and once with a
mirror" -- Sid Vicious
In his book, Dee Dee says that Sid and Johnny Rotten were in the audience
when the Ramones played Dingwalls on July 3rd 1976; And that Sid and he met
each other the following night after a gig at the Roundhouse, and they
"...hit it off immediately".

I heard Joe Strummer say in an interview that he and Steeve Jones
learned guitar while playing along to the first Ramones album.

Wahey! Abba!!! 25 year anniversary this year!
Saw a TOTP2 special on them last weekend, where Bjorn recalled how Pete
Townshend once told him he thinks "SOS" is the best pop song ever written. Nice
one, Pete. Also in the current issue of Mojo magazine, you can read a piece by
Joey Ramone on Abba.
And the 101'ers, featuring Joe Strummer, played their first gig in 1974.

I heared Sid learned Bass while playing - the whole night before he joined the
Pistols - the first Ramones album. But I don´t know where and I can´t sware.
most likely sid attended some of the ramones early england shows, but i have
no idea when or where..

Ok, this is direct from Joey Ramone on this subject:
"Johnny Rotten was at the Roundhouse 76, Sid and them were at Dingwall's, Sid
would follow DEEDEE around like a puppy- all the other bands to be
Clash-Damned-Jam "
Funny, I heard he never learned to play period.
When your fellow bandmembers consistantly refer to you as "a coathanger" and
your sound guy prefers to have your amp shut off during shows chances are Sid
was a ......................... excellent muscian. I swear, I saw Sid and
Nancy (twice)maaaaaannnnnnnnn.

Why does it always have to come to that?"
I think Steve Jones was listening to the new york dolls.
But - they charge 50 pounds (British) for 30 minutes of video, making
for an expensive video. It's nice to know it is around though.

If you paid 1200$ (Ebay item) I think it was totally overpriced, 'cause
can't never be sure about it's original.
