[@TheMercianMetalDetecting]

The Damned are for life... Not just Christmas. ❤❤❤

[@mummyd1990]

Rat back where he truly belongs,absolutely excellent stuff.😊☺😆😉.

[@37895]

So the whole Vanian ‘vampire’ look from the 70s was a stroke of genius.. he hid in plain sight.. he hasn’t aged.. he really is a vampire!

[@BeverlyMetcalfe-fe2lc]

All band looked good, had lots of hair, great so many young guys spiky hair. When a girl punk 15 they had to have spiky hair❤Loved and thanks for sharing

[@kevinadamson5768]

He doesn't look his age. 😮

[@Lynsky24]

Last saw them in 81, and wow, they're still looking and sounding really good

[@neillongley59]

Last time I saw Rat was when he was playing with ‘the members’. Lost count how many times I’ve seen ‘the damned’

[@BeverlyMetcalfe-fe2lc]

Brilliant love it. Damned punk/post punk and heavy rock intertwine. Great gig great vibe. Danced all night exhausted

[@BLzBob.7268]

Heavy rock! Still love the energy, so glad these guys are still up for it! I'm still bouncing to heavy tunes aged 65. (Missed this gig though). BUT I bounced in front of them in 1977 in the Hope and Anchor London. X

[@ADHDIYuk]

The greatest intro to a song ever.

[@neillongley59]

On par with ‘Holiday in Cambodia’

[@kevinadamson5768]

​@@neillongley59neat neat neat also😊

[@Blackdeath551]

Cant wait till Cambridge on the 16th first saw them 77 old punks never die

[@thierrypetitjean]

Toujours là !! Incroyable, le solo de batterie également, super concert !! ❤❤😅😅

[@Al-qf9ez]

Man I couldn't go so thanks for this, they still got it.

[@davewright7739]

I was there Friday night at the Academy, great night with a brilliant set list.😊

[@matoko123]

What a track!!!

[@daninthegutter7521]

Saw them in the 70s at The Star in West Croydon, alongside Johnny Moped & Splodgenessabounds... an evening of total mayhem.... but very happy memories..

[@kevinadamson5768]

Brilliant 😊

[@kevinhodgson8508]

Great !

[@RizkiAnjani]

He still got it.

[@Rossi593]

They were supposed to play in 1978 at Leeds Uni. They were too drunk to get on stage. Saw the years later and they were superb although Rat Scabies wasn’t on drums because he’d fallen out with Sensible! Best song off the best album to me. Raw and fast.

[@tutts999]

They still look and sound brilliant.

[@zoltan-zq3xe]

Superb from Rat !

[@anthonywade5200]

SMASH IT UP!!!!!!!

[@tonymorrissey5750]

Vanian looks good considering he’s 590 years old (Dracula)…

[@charliecrash3450]

Who forgot to plug the mic in ?

[@TheSoulboy1964]

[@Chris-rr5jq]

Seuls les premiers morceaux comptent...

[@iantaylor8583]

Hard to tell but is this the original lineup?

[@grahamharlow7471]

3 of the 5 are original...singer, drummer and guitarist which is capt sensible

[@iantaylor8583]

@ cheers yeah I thought those 3 were but wasn’t sure about the others cheers 👍

[@gmantramp404]

Nah the original line up was before the borin keyboards 🤣🤣🤣

[@grahamharlow7471]

@@gmantramp404 yeah I know

[@wolfenstein6676]

The Damned were using keyboards and pianos on Machine Gun Etiquette, Gman, there's nothing boring about them when the Damned are using them :) .

[@citizencairn5230]

Hahaha. You have to say that's damned good. Oldies showing today's muppet generation reared on Coldplay and Sheeran how it's supposed to be done.

@0KT0BER based on what? internet? What's it based on and what gives anyone the right to make generalisations?

[@ShamrockDan]

Yep, but you missed out the dross of One Erection & Taylor Swift.

[@LarzGustafsson]

Arkle, where are you?

[@lukeoverthere1364]

The drummer looks like that guy from Cobra Kai

[@reindeer-o-stoole]

great drummer, but not quite up to the standard of Scabies. they should bury they hatchet but at this point (esp. after seeing the full-length Damned film) i think its too late

[@middleman9183]

........er, that IS Scabies?!

[@johnparkinson471]

You alright our kid that is the man !!!

[@davewalkden7248]

It's him, ya fucking plum. 🤣

[@zoltan-zq3xe]

Scabies is back has been for sometime.

[@paulfreeman1778]

Have you tried Specsavers? They also do hearing aids nowadays.

[@iseeshadowseverywhere5992]

Need original line-up. Brian James better guitar player. Sorry Captain.

[@eddiemoore6216]

Captain sensible 😮

[@Beedee729]

Drum solo. FFS

[@froorocks100]

1976 Rat would have spat on a drum solo

[@zoltan-zq3xe]

Rat often did drum solos at one time....because he can !

[@exegesis67]

He’s a decent actor these days too. Look out for his cameo in Black Doves
