The Sex Pistols appearance on So It Goes featured their debut TV appearance. Screaming "Get off your arse," Rotten and co. deliver a brutally intense rendition of Anarchy in the UK (broadcast only in the Manchester area on 4 September 1976)
☠
The last studio band, The Sex Pistols, performed 'Anarchy in the UK'.
The show closed with location footage of the Dr. Hook band getting into a taxi.
Three months after this episode was broadcast, Clive James wrote about his appearance on it in The Observer, and in particular expressed disapproval of the Sex Pistols, referring to Johnny Rotten as
"a foul-mouthed ball of acne calling himself something like Kenny Frightful"

I wrote a book about it:

(So It Goes 4 September 1976)
♔☠ ♔☠♔☠♔☠♔☠♔☠
"Theirs is theirs, punk rock's, the media's, and the common Brit's watershed moment, both positively asserting their worth (and Malc's rightful title as provocateur, Svengali), and signalling the beginning of the end of their brief reign and dominance as the Elvis of Punk, with all inherent negative connotations implied.
In their defense, they never abused or overused the medium or the media, who rather abused them to sensationalize, then profiteer (they worked with Malc under duress, while Elvis worked for Col. Parker as fealty).
They are already averse to the form before the announcer concludes the intro, and only 50% of that show is for show (authored by McLaren); the other half is, and continued to be, quasi-nihilism as performance, self-sabotage, and a desire to finish what they started as quickly as possible."by mrjyn
