I can't be the only one here that loved the shit outta The Damned...
Captain Sensible and Dave Vanian are still doing it together. I think this would be an interesting Love & Rockets type slot Sunday early evening outdoor stage.
Anyone down for some psychedelic goth punk love?

So long as they have held up as well as the Buzzcocks, fuck yeah.

Buzzcocks too, while we're at it. They're long overdue. And they're supposed to be touring USA in 2010.

I'm considering seeing The Damned on Halloween night in Seattle this year. Seems like it'd be a good time.

They just cancelled their U.S. tour because they didn't get their Visas approved.

Dammit to hell. So they did.
Thanks for the heads-up--I didn't even get an email from the Showbox about the cancellation. Probably forthcoming, but still. A girl's gotta have all the facts to make her Halloween plans!

I've asked for them several times.
I'd kill to hear 'liar' and 'love song' live. machine gun ettiquette is one of my absolute favourite records of all time. I have it on picture disc.

I saw them at the HOB in San Diego a couple of years ago. They put on an awesome show. I love the fact that they mixed the goth stuff with the punk stuff. Captain Sensible is still a Kook, and Dave is still a vampiric Tom Jones. They both still have their chops.
I say YES.

They'd be awesome to see live. Hell, X played last year. That'd be cool if they have an old school punk band play each year.

X was everything they needed to be. They were awesome.
