http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/news/malcolm-mclaren-dies-aged-64-1939621.html Malcolm McLaren dies aged 64 By Tom Peck Thursday, 8 April 2010 Malcolm McLaren, the former manager of the Sex Pistols and impresario, has died. He was 64. McLaren had had cancer for some time. His condition recently deteriorated rapidly and he died this morning in New York. His body is expected to be brought home to be buried in Highgate cemetery, north London. Born in North London, McLaren was best known as the manager of the iconic punk band The Sex Pistols. After attending and dropping out of several art colleges in 1971 he opened a clothes shop on the King’s Road , Let It Rock, with Vivienne Westwood. He achieved the notoriety that never left him when The Sex Pistols’ anti-establishment single God Save The Queen stole the number one spot during the Queen’s silver jubilee in 1977. His spokesman Les Molloy told The Independent: “He had been suffering from cancer for some time, but recently had been full of health, which then rapidly deteroriated. He died in New York this morning. We are expecting his body to be brought back to London and buried in Highgate Cemetery."

Speaking on the sad news of McLaren's passing Lydon (who signed the statement with his old moniker, Johnny Rotten) said: "For me Malc was always entertaining, and I hope you remember that. Above all else he was an entertainer and I will miss him, and so should you"
^^^Funny, because Johnny HATED McLaren! Sued him in the 80’s for something like $20 million dollars and won because of the way he swindled the Sex Pistols out of all their money.
