Half a century after igniting the British punk explosion, The Damned return with a celebratory tour.
Following a triumphant 50th anniversary show at Wembley, and a global run that will include the Sydney Opera House and North America, the architects of the genre are coming to the British Airways ARC, Olympia for the ‘Final Damnation 50’ tour.
As the first UK punk band to release a single, an album, and tour the US, this tour celebrates the legacy of Dave Vanian, Captain Sensible, Rat Scabies, Paul Gray, and Monty Oxymoron. Expect a setlist featuring "only the best songs" from their legendary 50-year catalogue.
Plus special guests: The Saints ’73-’78
