John Lydon announces "untamed, unscripted and uncensored" spoken word tour

John Lydon is extending his I Could Be Wrong, I Could Be Right spoken word tour into 2025, due to the "overwhelming success" of this 2024 Q&A tour .

The former Sex Pistol and current Public Image Limited frontman will apparently be taking to the stage "untamed, unscripted and uncensored".

A press release announcing the shows declares that the tour will find the 68-year-old musician reflecting upon “Sex Pistols, Public Image Limited (PiL), his art and his life’s story during informal evenings of conversation and audience questions.”

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

The tour will kick off in the second week of September 2025, with four Irish shows, and carry on through to November 24, with a homecoming date at London's Golders Green Hippodrome.
