The Damned have added a second night in London to their 2021 reunion tour.
The original line-up of Dave Vanian, Rat Scabies, Captain Sensible and Brian James announced their return last week with plans for UK shows in London, Birmingham, Glasgow and Manchester during a week or so in July 2021, and they’ll now be stopping for an additional gig at the Eventim Apollo on July 10th.
“They said it could never happen,” Captain Sensible has said to Music Week. “So much for animosity and malice between this bunch of individuals – nobody thought we’d ever get back together again, but here we are!”
“I’ve got enough regrets in my life,” Rat Scabies added. “This is one regret I’m really pleased I’m not going to have.”
