SEX PISTOLS FLOUT U.K. SMOKING BAN

THE SEX PISTOLS are facing a $100 (GBP50) fine after openly flouting a smoking ban at a concert in London. The punk icons were playing at London's Brixton Academy when the band lit up several cigarettes on stage, breaking the new law which came into force on 1 July (07), banning smoking in all enclosed public places. Frontman Johnny Rotten told the audience, "I can't believe you lot aren't smoking. What kind of country is this if you can't even have a smoke?"
