John
Lydon's Megabugs
|
| |
There's not been one
for ages, and then along come three at the same time…!
 Not
content with giving us his two forthcoming Channel 5 shows, John
has also completed a 10 part series for the Discovery
Channel (UK). John Lydon's Megabugs
begins on Sunday 7th November at 5pm (Sky
551 / NTL 500). The first episode of the series will look
at Spiders.
John is just about
to set off to New Orleans to complete the voice over's for the
remainder of the series. Discovery are currently
running Rotten style commercials with John swatting himself
with a flyswatter. There are also posters and billboards featuring
John, one surrounded by Killer Bee's, and another with John turning
into a Preying Mantis. Keep your eyes peeled… Nature Boy
is back… with a vengeance.

John
Lydon's Megabugs
John
Lydon goes back to the Jungle in Discovery's Megabugs… John
Lydon has teamed up with Discovery Channel to present a new ten
part series on one of his favourite subjects – bugs!
Lydon is on a mission: to find the biggest, hairiest, stickiest
and most indestructible insects in the world. In this exciting new
series, John goes stateside in search of the continent’s most
infamous bugs, from 30-year-old tarantulas and deadly hornets, to
rhinoceros cockroaches and glow-in-the-dark scorpions.
En route, John meets the crazy, colourful characters who live and
work with such mega bugs daily and literally immerses himself in
the world of bugs, being swarmed by killer bees and sucked by leeches
along the way.
John Lydon’s Megabugs is full of mega facts about these mega
bugs – including how a spider’s webbing is so strong,
it can be made into rope that will hold John’s weight, and
how a rhinoceros cockroach is so tough, if the average human had
the same power as one, then they would be able to carry the equivalent
of 76 family cars on their backs!
Lydon believes that it’s time some of the world’s most
feared bugs got the respect that they deserve and this fascinating
series will uncover some extraordinary facts about these most remarkable
creatures. |

they should know by now, there's only one John Lydon…

 A

to South Africa and takes a crash course in scuba so that he can

Lydon Goes Ape !
John
Lydon. Punk superstar, national icon and mad keen natural historian.
 Having
spent some time in a celebrity jungle, John's decided to experience
the real thing. With best mate John Rambo, he's embarking on a once
in a lifetime journey into the heart of East Africa, with the ultimate
aim of meeting his oldest relatives - the gorillas who date back
to a time when dinosaurs ruled the earth, 65 million years ago.
 And
there won't be a celeb in sight.
John's jungle odyssey will take him to see his closest next of kin
in the animal kingdom - the chimpanzee - and through impenetrable
jungles where he'll encounter the largest living ape - the endangered
Silverback Mountain gorilla.

| No,
no news of Mr Lydon, just some site updates. I
wonder where on earth he could be…?
As you
may have noticed I've done some general tinkering throughout the
week, nothing major just some little things. I have to say though,
I thought it was obvious the big "e" on the pages was
the email link, but apparently not! Oh, well…
The first
chunk of the multi-media is now available.
Please read the "technical bollocks" first before
dowloading. I've already had to upgrade the site's
bandwith and web space…
In the
future I'd like to add video clips, amongst many other things, but
at present we don't have means to do so. If anybody can help either
with the set up, or by supplying finished video files, please get
in touch… |

Well, helllo there… |
| |
|
|  Welcome
to the new JohnLydon.Com. Months in the preparation, days in the
making…
Parts
of the site are still under development, more will be added over
the following weeks and months. Some features of the old site still
remain (thanks to Steve), however, this is pretty much a clean break.
Basically, what you see here is just the building blocks for the
new site. It will change and expand, and in turn improve.
JohnLydon.Com
will run in conjunction with The
Filth and the Fury and Fodderstompf,
but will have a unique flavour, which will hopefully go some way
in representing Mr Lydon on the internet... Some pages - like parts
of the discography and lyrics - will be hosted by F&F and therefore
have a different appearance and style etc, the archived john-lydon.com
news will also remain as it is.
Please
note we are also starting a new mailing list concentrating
solely on Mr Lydon's many activities, not just PiL. If you are a
Fodderstompf member you should already have been invited to join,
if not you will have to sign up again... Mailing list membership
is separate from forum membership. |

Please note this part of the news archive comes from the previous
John-Lydon.Com site. Therefore it will
have a different appearance and style etc to the current site. Although
all images should load fine, given the age of the features, maybe
not all external links will work. If you spot anything that you
think can be fixed just let us know...
