1) Sid Vicious was actually not the original bass player for the Sex Pistols (who are big sell outs by the way b/c they were signed to EMI-big label and signing to a big label is just not, by definition, punk) He was a member of the Sex Pistol fan club and eventually joined even though he had no music talent or experience. I am pretty sure his efforts did not make it in the recording studio and someone else played for him. I am also pretty sure he didn't "write" anything he played. I believe the other guys did most of that.-could be wrong though.

2) he was so bad at "playing" the bass, they painted numbers on it for him
3) they often un plugged him b/c he was so awfull
4) Nancey Spurgenon (sp?) was a junkie and is now thought to have been a schizophrenic-literally. If you read the book her mother wrote, she was a problem since the day she was born. In and out of mental hospitals, rehabs etc. running away from home, slutting around etc.
5) Sid Vicious' mother was a junkie-hence why he was a junkie and why she bought him dope the day he died. It was like her gift to him.

6) Courtney Love auditioned for the part of Nancey Sprugeon in that movie and was PISSED OFF to only get the part of the friend. Her whole look/style is centered around being Nancey. I saw an interview with her once and she talked about how she called the caster/director of that movie constantly telling him-(I AM Nancey! Can't you see it??)

7) yeah-they died close together and it was alluded to that he killed her because it's all a mystery and no one really knows and they were both all smacked out.

8) Sid Vicious apparently was already a drug user when he met Nancey, but she really influenced his whole becoming a total junkie. She thought it was cool.
