Was lucky enough to see The Damned supported by The Ruts back in the day. What a show that was!

[@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow]

That would have been a great show!!!! Wow!!!

[@paulmorgancollings7833]

Ladies and gentlemen, how do? Opening line from a fantastic album. I fuckin LOVE the damned.

HEY MAN, WHAT’S HAPPENIN’?!?!

[@deanrussell2224]

Alan Ford better know as brick top I believe but have also heard it’s Albert Tatlock from Corrie !!

[@MikeTheBike2010]

The Damned are great and good fun to meet in real life, the Captain kindly posed for photos and shared his jelly babies with us at my friends wedding…………

[@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow]

Hahahaha that’s an awesome story. Thanks for sharing.

Fun fact-The Young Ones had bands on it as a way of getting a bigger budget. They found out that ‘variety’ shows got a bigger budget than ‘comedy’ shows. So they said they were a ‘variety’ show with the only rule being that they had to have one additional act (which was usually a band although in one episode it was a lion tamer)

[@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow]

Yep! I do remember them saying that in the dvd extras. That’s so funny. Latest video is about the young ones too. Love that show.

I was yesterday years old when I found out that the Vanian part of his name was from "Transylvanian". The world makes a little bit more sense now.

[@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow]

Hahahahaha The Damned forever!!!

[@gloriahackler1498]

That’s pretty clever.

[@CMZIEBARTH]

I may have influenced this concert? About ten to fifteen years ago I suggested on their old message board doing a concert in an old theater performing songs with extra instrumentation accompanying them and a little more visual, theatrical flair and the guy running the message board said he would take that idea back to them. Could they have entirely forgotten about that and later on got the idea in a different way? Absolutely! Yes, great and unique setlist. Like that "Tightrope Walk" is on there. Deadbeat Dance and She Must Be A Witch would have been great additions.

[@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow]

Hahahahaa that’s awesome!!!!

[@jamiemcpherson5068]

Get the CD/Blueray and watch the concert. Just amazing!!!

[@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow]

I have seen it! It’s awesome!!!! A lot different to what I saw at Punk Rock Bowling. Can’t wait to see them again next year!!!

[@jamiemcpherson5068]

@@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow where are you going to see them? So far, they've only announced another UK tour. Hope they come to Oz. I don't know if the Captain's vaccination status will prevent him from entering. He couldn't play the US this year because of it.

[@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow]

@@jamiemcpherson5068 they’re scheduled to be playing Punk Rock bowling next year.

[@jamiemcpherson5068]

[@soniamole8580]

I just saw this and loved your review! I think this band and especially David Vanian are so underrated and that's a shame but we'll keep this treasure for people who understand what they are all about. ❤ I'm in Melbourne and cannot believe I'm going to see them in March!!!!😛 hope you're there and would love to say hello. This is my first time seeing them live and can't wait!!! 🤘🔝👏👏👏

[@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow]

Hey! Thanks heaps for watching! Yeah they are freakin’ awesome! I’ll definitely be at the Melbourne show too! It’s sure to be awesome. One of my all time favourite live bands. I can’t believe it’s supposed to be their last Australian tour. I guess they’re hanging it up soon or just tired of traveling all this way. Who knows but it’s going to be a sad day. Alas, cannot wait to see them walk out on that stage and smash it up!

[@soniamole8580]

I absolutely agree with you. I'll try to find you to say hello. I'm sure it will be a fantastic show!🤩🔝👋

[@stephanvenner2939]

The Poster hangs already framed in my living room.Another great live Album of The Damned.😎👍🏻🎶

[@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow]

Nice!!!!! I can’t wait to get mine framed. It’s such a great poster.

[@newforestpixie5297]

Of all the ‘ original ‘ British punk bands The Damned had the additional ingredients of Cool & Fun in equal amounts as opposed to The Stranglers whom had Cool with Menace . That’s my opinion anyway. Thanks for this from near Bournemouth 🏴❤️

[@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow]

I agree! So much fun!

[@jerrybailey5797]

I've seen the Damned uite a few times since the 1980s , l have most of their albums on vinyl . They're a fantastic live band. Me and my good Lady wife saw them this year in Birmingham in the UK when they plated tracks from there first 2 albums . Definitely worth seeing . Not heard about this a,bum yet so thanks for the update 👍

[@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow]

I would have loved to have seen those reunion shows of the original line-up. All reports I read said it was fantastic! It would be awesome if they could take that reunion to the world. I wonder if they filmed it professionally for a release? Hope so!!! Thanks heaps for watching… appreciate the comment. Have a great holiday season.

[@eloise5177]

You are so right Dave never ages does he 🤣

[@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow]

I’d love to know what his secret is. Haha

[@danielsweet858]

Wonder if that cover design was used on t-shirts sold at the show? The Blu-ray is amazing!

[@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow]

I did see the blu ray and what a great show! Can’t wait to see them here in Melbs soon!!! Hella excited for that show.

[@MercurtioCor]

One of the few things in life I actually get excited for.

[@johndugalin1629]

Hold the album up to a light bulb for a bit, it will GLOW

[@enciendelamechahc-punkzine8396]

best ever band

[@jordanstrang8056]

I was at this gig and even managed to get on the DVD! There are quite a few songs that were played that Night that don’t appear on the release unfortunately (Nasty, Shadow of Love, Smash It Up, and New Rose if my memory serves me rightly) would love to see a full show release at somepoint cos Nasty was the Highlight for me

[@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow]

Oh wow! Thanks for the intel. I thought it was the full show. I wanna see the whole thing now. Nasty is one of the greatest songs ever

[@gustavnovak]

YES ! NOISE NOISE NOIIIISEEEE ! 🎸🎼🎵🎶🖖🤙🏻👍 THE DAMNED !

[@eloisezoe8249]

Loved this review! The Damned are my favourite band, and The Young Ones is my favourite TV show!

[@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow]

Thank you so much for watching. The Young Ones is the best!!! Stay tuned for a video related to The Young Ones coming soon!!!

[@frankcantelmi245]

I just bought the CD version it comes with the Bluray full concert its amazing LP looks great the poster looks unreal Thanks for showing

[@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow]

I wish the vinyl came with the blu ray too. The footage I’ve seen looks glorious.

[@jamesvincent1434]

💀Damned if you do, Damned if you don't💀

[@eloise5177]

It’s great got the cd and all colours of the vinyl. New Rose 🌹 ❤️

[@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow]

Next level record collecting!!! 🤘🏻

[@Jay-Vee]

It will only glow after it's been charged under light for at least 10-15 mins, longer than that would be even better.

[@GilbertSyndrome]

Great album, IMO, great setlist as well. Interesting tidbit if you watch the behind the scenes documentary of the Young Ones, they mention that the Damned went out for curry after filming that episode, got into a food fight in the restaurant and subsequently broke up again afterwards, having only just gotten back together. I'll be seeing them in April for the 6th or 7th time. ETA, where the hell did you get that Sloppy Seconds shirt??? I'm seeing them next August, if I don't die and the world doesn't end.

[@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow]

Saw them at Punk Rock Bowling and they had about 5 different shirt designs so I grabbed two. This being one of them. I’m sure they’ll have it at the show you’re going to. They’re so freakin’ awesome!!! So much fun. You’re gonna have the best time ever.

[@christopherdavis8248]

but why didnt they include "Dead Beat Dance" from the Return of the Living Dead soundtrack? i needed to watch this video so I dont have to open my copy of this album. I also have the glow in the dark version.

[@TheLongGoneLoserRockShow]

I dunno why they didn't include it... You might have to ask them directly. I don't know them personally. You should tear that record open and crank it up! It's seriously bitchin!!!
