Interesting point, but, for argument's sake, I'd say that Steve Jones was an integral part of the look/vibe of the Pistols, at least in their earlier days. It was, after all, the virulently heterosexual Jones who would be the most willing to wear the "naked gay cowboys" T-shirt. Very meh now, but certainly not in the climate of the mid-1970's in the UK. To put it into a US context, which band in 1976 in the States would have done that on a non-"art" basis? Richard Hell's the only one I can think of....any more suggestions?
