Sex Pistols - Lesser Free Trade Hall - 4th June 1976



This is the rare Sex Pistols ticket for the first of 2 gigs at the Lesser Free Trade Hall in Manchester. Note the mistyped date Friday 4th June 1076. As an avid follower of bands like the Stooges, The MC5, The New York Dolls and Nuggets Garage bands, it seemed like the perfect gig. It didn't disappoint. As has been well documented elsewhere (see here) , the start of Manchester's love of Punk began.
