John Lydon – I Could Be Wrong, I Could be Right

This event has ended

The Depot at The Complex, Saturday 13th September

Legend and icon John Lydon comes to The Complex Autumn 2025 to talk about his unique and extraordinary career as part of his spoken-word tour visiting England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales.

The shows in Autumn 2025 have been booked due to overwhelming demand, following the success of a spoken word tour in Spring 2024.

Lydon will reflect on the Sex Pistols, Public Image Limited (PiL), his art and his life’s story during informal evenings of conversation and audience questions.

An icon, a revolutionary and an immortal, as the frontman and lyricist of the Sex Pistols, Johnny Rotten changed the face of music and sparked a cultural revolution. He caused an earthquake which transformed music for good.

During his remarkable years in Public Image Ltd he consistently pushed back the boundaries and still continues to challenge and thrive.

As a writer, Lydon wrote two best-selling volumes of memoir: the excoriating Rotten: No Irish, No Blacks, No Dogs and the ridiculously entertaining and uncompromising Anger Is An Energy: My Life Uncensored.

Now he is embarking on a spoken word tour, where fans will get to hear his stories up-close-and-personal.

John said: “I could be shit. I could be shite. I’m left-handed. John Lydon or John Rotten.”
