The YouTube channel named HollyWood Gypsy has published previously unseen footage from the Sex Pistols' performance in Dallas on January 10, 1978. The material recorded at the Longhorn Ballroom contains several details that were missing from previously known concert film versions. According to the description, the material may originate from the personal collection of Noel Monk, who worked as a tour manager on the band's American tour commissioned by Warner Bros.



The interesting thing about the footage is that it comes from three different cameras. The second and third cameras recorded nearly an hour of material, while the first, shorter recording joins in later in the concert. The newly surfaced videos show a part of Seventeen, as well as the full version of New York - these songs were previously missing from the widely known DVD release.

The setlist included, among others, EMI, Bodies, Holidays In The Sun, Pretty Vacant, and Anarchy In The U.K. Because of the different camera angles, the material is not only interesting as a document, but also shows the atmosphere of the concert differently than the previously known versions.

The videos also feature some short onstage dialogues and improvised moments that haven't really surfaced until now. One recording also shows John Lydon's reaction when Sid Vicious announces a song with the wrong title.



The Dallas concert was part of the Sex Pistols' only American tour. A few days later, the band played their final concert at the time in San Francisco, which is why such surfacing footage always receives special attention.
