THE DAMNED - New Rose (1977)

Brighton, 06-15-77.

[@anonymousbuttrue9168]

I was there, was one of the most energetic live shows EVER- firmly put The Damned at the #1 pop band slot that decade. They played NEAT NEAT NEAT in about 40 seconds

[@Mrpublicimagelimited]

Looks like they blew the Clash off the stage that night, yes?

[@charlieib8033]

[@hoodygold8900]

What a time to be alive. A shame I wasn’t.

[@kevinadamson7571]

This my friends is how punk rock should be played.

[@gwugluud]

All of the punk band's second albums sounded like REO Speedwagon. This was by far the peak.

[@ursulaschlapbach311]

Exactly

[@ursulaschlapbach311]

Yes yes yes

[@ursulaschlapbach311]

Reo speedwagon ha ha ha

After that they changed the music to Gothic, but anybody knew Sex Pistols, The Clash and The Damned the best trio Punk Rock in UK/the First British Invasion Punk Rock..Sex Pistols thats Brutal and nihilism, The Clash thats Jenius Punk Rock and The Damned thats A romace Punk Rok Band thats i Love Dave vanian..

[@kenytco68]

At the end of a docu on prog rock, Phil Collins said Rat Scabies saw him at an airport and told him how much he liked Genesis.

[@peterwalsh8429]

must have been upsetting for the shortarse....

[@jacqueshughes3085]

He was also good friend with Mark Bolan out of T-Rex and they were talking of doing something together when Bolan died.

[@AgzDaRedz]

Do you think Dave was into Iggy Pop!!!

[@AC85Bears]

His performance here has Iggy written all over him.

[@atsunorismith66]

Rat Scabies has some heat

[@RTT8001]

Great. I see a lot of Iggy Pop in the performance.

[@andreaprodan5616]

All this when genesis were selling 'SECONDS OUT'!!!
Hoorray for Punk!

[@kennethmarshall306]

Would you credit it but I like both 😳

[@HouserKat]

um tee ooh ah, yes ******* damned right. classic.

[@Phoeberuthless]

dave is actually a big fan of iggy :)

[@Mrpublicimagelimited]

The Damned were on the same bill with the Clash that night - and wiped them off the fucking stage.

Sussex Uni gig. The ' White Riot Tour ' . 1977 I believe ?

Incredible thing is that video was extremely rare back then.

lit

[@spiccybaby]

@vegbloke No way they had a 30k PA, 2-5 max at that time would have been typica. 30k was thought "big" for AC/DC in the early '80s.

Was this on the T.Rex tour by any chance??

[@UKAlanR]

Nope - that was around March '77 - I saw the Birmingham gig on 17/3/77, at which The Damned totally changed the course of my life thereafter.

[@peterpeterxxo]

the damned n the adverts same bill..result.

[@marianamour]

A mi me parece hoy david estaba re dado vuelta, jajajajajaja

[@andreaprodan5616]

fair enough... speaks well of scabies...Genesis WERE a great brit band, but PUNK rang the changes!
