Steve Jones Net Worth
Early in his life, Steve Jones was involved in petty crimes and, unfortunately, he reverted back to his criminal ways during his time as an adult in the music industry. The story goes that Jones stole from a variety of rock stars and legends as the Pistols made their way to the top. It has also been said that he swiped microphones from David Bowie, a guitars from Rod Stewart and even a fur coat from The Rolling Stones’ Ronnie Wood. Following the release of the Pistols’ album, the band, which had replaced Matlock with Lydon’s old friend Sid Vicious, headed to America for a series of concert dates. But the tour quickly collapsed, as did the group. They played their final show at Winterland in San Francisco in 1978. Essentially, the Pistols were through, but Cook and Jones kept things going a bit longer with a series of additional singles that were used in McLaren’s film account of the band, The Great Rock ’n’ Roll Swindle (1980). After the demise of the Sex Pistols, Steve Jones went on to work as a studio musician, work in several other groups and host a radio program in Los Angeles called Jonesy’s Jukebox.
