So Damned Good!
Forget age, time is a concept. The Damned proved that true with a stellar set to a capacity crowd in the classic Seattle Showbox on a Thursday night. The energy was palable and the band was in firm control as they laid out songs covering 2 decades of work. The 4 core members (and excellent keyboard support) showed this band has no musical weak spots. Classic punk anthems mixed with 80s influenced synthetic created unique energy and moods all tied together by a group absolutely confidence to deliver an amazing show. Dave Vanian's vocals actually seem better now than ever and Capt Sensible squeezed every perfect note and noise from his instrument. I was blown away by Rat Scabies incredible drumming throughout the entire set.
Would stand in line for hours to see them tomorrow if I had the option. ... Read more
