Thanks Zoc0.

If I'd picked up on the original question last night I would have been able to answer BTW (not trying to show off, the Damned were the first band I ever saw live back in 76 and have been a fan ever since).

Wish I'd been there too. Saw them first on the Phantasmagoria tour in '85.

I think they're greatly underrated. The cognoscenti in rags like the Guardian seem to think punk began and ended with the Pistols, Clash and Ramones and the Damned never get a look in.

Oh well, at least it means the gigs aren't full of pretentious twats!

Nice one!

The new album (No Going Back) was funded via Pledge Music (no record company deal required - just like the old days.

Bruce left ages ago. Ali came back to help out on tour and has stayed with them since. Saw them in Bristol a couple of months ago (go every year). Met the band backstage afterwards as part of my pledge package for the new album (which is rather good).

I've always liked SLF. Played in Bath last week, oddly enough. Got Bruce Foxton on bass these days.

Got my first blowjob wearing my 'Boy' U2 teeshirt, back Adrian Road, Halliwell, Bolton, great night. Wonder what her name was....

Loved that shirt, though if I still had it, I fear my belly may stretch it beyond the limits of pure cotton (wishful) or ICI polyester (realistic).....

I have a pic of me in it - I'll dig it out or upload. Or not...

Reginald?

Hopefully not with your chopper out!

Yes, probably '81 or thereabouts. I bought that album thinking they were new romantic. Ended up in Plastic Wax 2nd hand record shop in Bridgwater.

Oddly walked past a gig one evening in Millennium Square in Leeds and one of the bands was 'From The Jam' - can't imagine who's left, must be Rick Buckler....

No, I think Foxton's involved in that too.

Couldn;t have been 1979 re: U2, must have been 80's - 'Boy' time......

Never a real fan - sorry!!

I was more SLF, Joy Division, even U2, saw them very late 79 or maybe early 80's in Manchester. The Jam too.....

Yep. Got there in the end.

And the album? Machine Gun Etiquette. A classic.
