The Damned tonight?

[Return of the Rev]

Anyone popping along Worthing tonight.

 

[El Presidente]

Bit far for me but might be tempted to attend the 40th Anniversary gig at the Albert Hall next April.

Have you seen there's a film coming out about them by the director who made the brilliant Lemmy movie?

 

[PFJ]

Yep....See you in there R

 

[PFJ]

Only tickets left seem to be in the Gods......Going to have to be one of those tout sites for a decent ticket .

Saw them in Blackpool last Friday, as good as usual.

I also looked at The Albert hall gig, on the day it was announced even then they only had tickets up in the gods !! I was hoping it was a glitch in the system as I cant believe The Damned would sell that many ticket 9 months in advance.

 

[Superphil]

We'll see you there then

 

[jazz pancake]

Seeing them in Hastings tomorrow with my new partner, this is really true, called Eloise....doo doo doo do... Is the Albert Hall 40th really nearly sold out? Will Scabies make an appearance. Went to both days 10th anniversary at Brockwell Park. Incredibly underrated band the cartoon punk image maybe taking away from their incredible talent ? Monty Oxymorons band played in the Lamb in Lewes last year, they were dreadful.

8:03 and Vanian is unhappy with the sound check, still at it, impromptu Neat Neat Neat muffled through the walls, support act not been on yet.

Completly untrue, Vanian was not even in the building,
Pinch & Capt were the unhappy ones with the monitors.
Was quickly sorted.

That's just what we were told, was a bit more than quickly sorted though, wouldn't let us in till 8:15. Grand show mind, blumming superb.

Support were entertaining too, they were chucked on stage and told to start, the desk pulled it together after a few numbers. Red Raucous.

 

[Return of the Rev]

Vanian looked in great nick!

 

[Pickles]

Brilliant gig!

Next two for me in Worthing are The Blockheads and Leo Sayer.

 

[lasvegan]

Red Raucous played recently in San Diego, the drummer is still good frIends with members of The Beat Farmers, who still gig around town in various formats.

 

[Tarpon]

Crap. Wish I'd made the effort now. Set list anyone?

 

[Garage_Doors]

Chatting back stage afterwards about Albert hall, was told there are a lots of tickets left and still general sale.

It was much as would be expected, although I'd not heard them play Anti Pope before (not that I remember) and also Fan Club which again I don't remember hearing them play that before.
