Lydon 'threatens to kill' fan at comeback gig

John Lydon threatened to kill a fan at a concert in Los Angeles after he was hit in the face with a drink.

The band were performing their first reunion gig on Thursday in front of 500 fans ahead of a tour of the UK next month

Singer Lydon - also known as Johnny Rotten - lost his temper after a drink was splashed in his face and threatened to kill the "coward" responsible if he caught him.

The Pistols, who split in 1978 and reformed for a world tour in 1996, haven't played together since 2003. The group will begin a five-night run at London's Brixton Academy on November 8.
