Vicious White Kids

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Vicious White Kids were a punk rock band from London that formed for one concert on August 15, 1978, at the Electric Ballroom in London, Sid Vicious was the lead singer.

Sid was due to fly to New York and needed some funds, so after bumping into ex pistol Glen Matlock one day they decided to do a gig together. Glen recruited his Rich Kid bandmate Steve New on guitar and The Damned's Rat Scabies completed the line up on drums. Nancy Spungen sang backing vocals but after hearing her at rehearsals Glen made sure her microphone wasn't plugged in on the night of the gig. The name of the band came from an amalgamation of Sid Vicious, The Rich Kids and Rat Scabies' part time outfit The White Cats.

The only ever concert has been released many times.
