@@wayner7111 I've been trying to think of my top 3 but its bloody difficult. damned for sure up to strawberries lp. poss uk subs in there and Buzzcocks, tho then I listen to x ray spex, Kennedys,killing joke, the dickies et al and its a lottery. all I know is I'm blessed with who I've seen and I feel honoured to still at 57 be a punk lover. those Amyl and the sniffers are a wonderful modern day punk group. so much energy. keep well my friend ;-]
I need to find the money before the capt and Dave die to see them in person, slightly too young to have been there for any of it, but found them during my edgy preteens, Band fucking got me through some rough times can tell ya that.
@@caesertullo1824 The lads are in their early 60s, far from old. And, it matters not when you discovered the glory of The Damned, the important thing is that you're onboard now. I'm sure you will have included Naz Nomad and the Nightmares, and The Phantom Chords...
@@MsGrimly1756 very true, very true. But without either the Damned doesnt exist. And according to the epic legend cap did find Dave at night on his way to the graveyard shift as a grave digger. And the rest is history. Cap understood the importance of a good front man. And there will be no better after Dave or before. My favorite music video is smash it up. The dude literally blends into the background yet still commands presence. *edit cap probably lost his first billing privileges when he went pop for that time. But hell it was worth it for a punk cover of happy talks.
@@MsGrimly1756 yeah I understand they are still pretty young comparatively. And I doubt they will ever stop doing shows even if they dont really leave the uk much at all anymore. But I'm chronically ill. So it's more of a high priority on my list since to someone in my situation I can blink and years can go by. Thank God my health is finally getting taken care of. But when you live like me if you dont keep reminding yourself of what you want, you dont keep an eye out for the opportunity.

Great track! It's reminiscent of a time when people appreciated the differences in each other, without labeling them. My second favourite track from The Damned, after Eloise. 🍺😋👍

One of the top three punk bands of all time.

@@clintdavies491 How about The Sex Pistols and The Clash.

I listen to this every Xmas lol
Perhaps the best Christmas song on earth.
"Father Christmas" by the Kinks is pretty good too.
This is true Punk rock!
I play it on Christmas Day. Happy Christmas everyone ❤
Rabies got to Scabies, now he's down on all fours
Hasn't helped his drumming, changing hands for paws
Afraid he's quarantined, means no more foreign tours
Ah ha, there ain't no sanity clause
Oh no, there ain't no sanity clause
Oh no, there ain't no sanity clause
Oh no, there ain't no sanity clause
Oh no, there ain't no sanity clause
Vanian had a visit from a guy named Drac
Says he's from the blood bank wants his ten pints back
Singer's rather sickly, when it rains it pours
Oh no, there ain't no sanity clause
Oh no, there ain't no sanity clause
Oh no, there ain't no sanity clause
Oh no, there ain't no sanity clause
Oh no, there ain't no sanity clause
Did you expect that I would believe
The tale you told last Christmas Eve
About the man that man is fat and round
Delivers gifts without a sound
Here comes uncle Nick
Let's give him some stick
Here comes uncle Nick
Let's give him some stick
Captain's out of order 'cause he thinks he's Jaws
Biting lady punters on the Norfolk Broads
Paul plays the bass he's just debased that's all
Oh no, there ain't no sanity clause
There ain't no sanity clause
Ho ho ho all fours
Hasn't helped his drumming, changing hands for paws
Afraid he's quarantined, means no more foreign tours
Ah ha, there ain't no sanity clause

Brilliant jam, expert lyrics courtesy of the Captain!
When I saw the Damned in 1989, the Captain introduced "Jet Boy, Jet Girl" by saying, "This one's for all you Yanks!"
The Damned really were as tight as a Camels arse in a Sandstorm round about this time - Brilliant!!
Machine Etiquette, Black Album, Strawberries. Best period ever! Plan 9, ch. 7.
1 of BEST PUNK BANDS ever!!!POLY L'ODI......
Followed them in various guises since their "Neat Neat Neat" days. This has to be one of their best though!!!!
such a happy tune!
This would pair well with the Kinks' "Father Christmas"!
And their own "Antipope".
Here comes Uncle Nick, lets give him some stick...
Absolute legends, none better!
Great track! It's reminiscent of a time when people appreciated the differences in each other, without labeling them.
My second favourite track from The Damned, after Eloise. 🍺😋👍
Classic Christmas records
how come they don't play this during the holidays in the stores, haha... ❤
Now THIS is classic Christmas music! Move over Burl Ives!
They played this in my local Kroger!
Kershaw said the same thing today!
I did an alternative Christmas playlist a couple of years ago with There ain't no sanity clause, and among others, this ua-cam.com/video/2ZyJCV_dyug/v-deo.html
This should be the song chosen for this year's Xmas Facebook campaign to keep X Factor from getting no1 again...
@Kelly14UK I fully support this outrageous plan!
A Night at the Opera brought me here.
Yaaaaaaaasssssss!
Punk Rock saved my life
Fab fab fab......
Rabies got to scabies and now he's down on all fours

@petesway1962 Someday my upload of Mine's A Large One Landlord will dominate UA-cam. I'm not mad, HONESTLY : )
