    Rotten on Rotten

    Johnny Lydon (nee Rotten) was on Steve Jones' radio show yesterday, and he mentioned that he was denied filming there for his old TV show on VH1. Seems that he had issue with a piece of paper on display there in which it was claimed he wrote all the lyrics to "Anarchy in the UK." He said no such a piece of paper exists, therefore this display was a phony. The response from the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame: "Our source is irrefutable" and they refused to take it down.

    Um... more irrefutable than the guy who piece of paper it's supposed to be?

    You know it was in trouble once they chose Cleveland for the site.
