watch?v=IEeJgM2HQ0U Ich glaub viele von Euch haben ähnlich gefühlt...
Saw "em in a little club (called Network?) out in LI I think it was '81-a band of us NYC punks made a pilgrimage out there on the LIRR...the club probably had a 100 person capacity, there were about 50-60 people in the house. The stage riser was maybe 2 ft high so they were effectively playing in the midst of the pogoing crowd.
@Tracymmo I recall it was near Huntington-and a blast it was! 32 years ago and I can remember the show very well-it takes something special to make that kind of impression.
They played for about 2 1/2 hrs, several encores (we wouldn't accept that the "last" song was the last and were all shouting "encore" at the top of our lungs until they would come back out again and again) basically every song from their 3 albums. And they were incredible-the energy of a freight train locomotive, tight as shit and at the same time loose and relaxed.
So loud that you could feel it through your body, Rat was an arse stomping maniac, Paul Gray grinding out the bottom end, Dave the Dark Overlord incarnate, and the Captain was beyond description incredible-Strat/Marshall cranked to 11, his tone was roaring when he played chords and a soaring wail during solos which were even better than those on their records. I've seen a (very) few other performances that were on par with that evening, but I swear that show was like a religious experience!
took me till about five seconds before he "broke" the neck off his guitar to realize thry were just playing along, something about the look on there faces when they were buttrockin-out. then I noticed the drummer playing one-handed!
Actually, following last post, I just called up Machine Gun Etiquette... and the cover that came up is completely different from mine... never seen it before. Mine has a photo cover. Did they do a different pressing? I bought mine in Australia 1979.
I love how Sensible doesn't even pretend to be playing along to the track, which is straight off Machine Gun Etiquette. Sensible is wearing that fuzzy suit on the album cover, walking down a street in New York. First LP I ever bought, aged 13. The Damned bought some much-needed humour to early punk but by Christ they could play. Check out their fantastic cover of MC5's Looking At You off same LP. Pretty heavy duty musicianship.
believe it or not : i saw it back then. the damned, the clash and the dead kennedys were my holy trinity. and then one day i switch on the telly and woooooooooooooosh.................. i made my peace with playback that day :-)
Every time I watch this video, I feel the need to comment. So if you guys think I have no life, it's only partly true. Ok, onwards with the comment: This band makes me want to die...in a good way. *notworthynotworthy*
The lead singer was quite good, he could sing! I always thought they were the shittest of the punk bands though. Not a patch on The Pistols, Clash, Ruts and X ray spex!
i think i know what happened....this is the studio recording over the live performance and i think i know why....the damned went out there and just to piss off everyone there, played bad so they would be forced to use the recording XD if thats the case than THAT is brilliant XD id do the same thing haha
I went to see these last night at rcok city in notthingham, it was absolutely amazing, they played this song as an en-cor and everyone went mad! It was epic, and dave still looks gorgeous!
Is "Machine Gun Etiquette" the best album released by one of the early punk bands? Better than "Never Mind the Bollocks" or "London Calling"? Better than "Closer" or "Rocket to Russia"? Better than, dare I say, "Damned Damned Damned"? Methinks yes... Talk amongst yourselves...
@PetertheImpaler as an album, i've always liked machine gun etiquette better. its more mature and polished and easier to listen. however, damned x3 i think captures their raw energy better, neat x3 and new rose are fabulous, but many of the other songs i can live without.
@allouTV I dunno, I'd say this track (and video) captures their raw energy pretty well, and furtherm -- wait...allouTV...I know that nam-- OH, JESUS, YOU'RE THAT GUY WHO HAS SEX WITH OCTOPI!! OH, MAN, YOU LOSER!! THAT'S BESTIALITY! GOD, YOU MAKE ME SICK!! DON'T EVER ASSOCIATE YOUR NAME WITH MINE AGAIN, AND GET THAT GARBAGE OFF THE INTERWEBS!! LISTEN, IF I WANTED TO WATCH A PATHETIC RETARD SCREW A FAT-HEADED, SKINNY-LEGGED BOTTOM-FEEDER, I'D WATCH "ONE NIGHT IN PARIS"...again...
@lunchmind You've got to be joking. The Damned are quite possibly the greatest punk band ever - and they even do other genres as well. And they're the real thing - not this watered down crap (that actually made money) from more recent years.
This is one of the few videos on Youtube without a comment on how the number dislikes followed by some witty remark about the song title. Oh the temptation....I don't think I can fight it....Bleh! Is ok. I fought it. The power of the Damned compelled me. Amen.
Wow! People leaving comments could at the VERY least go GOOGLE this band first!! The Damned were one of the best bands out of England back in the day ... they knew how to sing & play instruments (for the most part)!
OMG, what the hell is Sensible's clothing JA JA JA it looks like a psicotic Teddy Bear.
It's funny to see Vanian dressed like "Igor the gravedigger" and Sensible wearing that... those.. damn, however could be called that he wears. Perfect visual oxymoron.
Carrying on from below, if anyone wants to check out The Ruts who doesn't already know them, a few recs for ya's!
Shine on me.
Love in Vain - written about Malcolm Owen "H" addiction, as was:
In a Rut
Babylon's Burning
Jah War
Although they have dropped of the radar now, they were big'ish in the early 80's here in the UK & some of their songs carried a much more reggae influenced style.
Sorry if a lot of you guy's already know them, but if not they are worth checking out.
did u notice Dave staring at Algy when he was giving the finger towards the camera. maybe he thought this guys an arsehole and that's why he didn't last. could be wrong tho....
@loudnout i think you could be wrong ,mate,cos the captain often played naked and if you look at the "neat neat neat "clip uploaded by blank tv the good captain actually pisses on the audience (and gets in a fight),i think algy didn't last cos he may have got too drunk to play.but there's a dvd of the pistols" live at the longhorn",where sid is acting the dick,screwing up the gig andthe rest of the band are thinking and saying what a cunt.It's kinda painful and embarrassing
I lived it for real in London during the late 70's & 80's & saw a lot of great Punk bands. The Damned were the real deal, I would have put them up there with The Pistols.
From reading "Hammer of the Gods" on Led Zep it would appear that they were great fans as well, pitching up at a number of gigs!
@98pup100 The sox packers, um, I meant sex pistols, were (thankfully) a one-and-done buncha posers with zero talent or substance. And that one shitty little record they made can't compare to anything by the Damned. And do keep in mind which UK punk band had ALL the firsts (single release, album release, single to hit the UK charts, tour of America, break up and then reform (though without Brian James, which was fine by me).
Unlike the 60 odd thousand people I have meet who claimed to have seen The Pistols at the 100 Club which held, I think, 300 people, I never saw The Pistols live!
I still think Never Mind... stands up as a great album. Sid Vicious was always a nuciance, but most bands have one of those. Paul Cook & Steve Jones went on to form The Proffesionals who were a great band.
Back in the day I also loved a band called The Ruts. The guy topped himself in the bath, but them's were good
I got to see them like 2 years ago in D.C, if you ever get the chance take it! one of the best live sets I have ever seen. Even better live than on record.
Sensibles broken neck Obvious tip off theyre actually not playing-- pre dates PIL on AB obvious tip off actually not playing- lydon just a little more obvious though, or Arty. Damned were never about art. Just good Rock n Roll. Well played Damned!!!
• Evolution towards the Basque type(the white man) begins
• Homo sapiens sapiens soon divides into the racial groups which now inhabit the earth Each group becomes the origin of the races which we now distinguish. One of them, Cro-Magnon man, evolved into the Basque group.
• Cave of Urtiaga (Deva) Cro-Magnon cranium begins to evolve into the Basque cranium.The basque man founded and schooled europe
Does anyone know what they actually played in this video? It's obviously fake because he snapped the guitars neck off at the end and the guitar was still playing
@RemoteMemory Really? I could have sworn that Mark P said in Sniffin Glue that Punk died the day The Clash signed to CBS! Your comment by the way is totally daft. The Damned back in the day (and especially when 'Machine Gun Ettiquette' came out) were once of the best live bands around. Obviously if you had seen them you would never say such things!
Well, this was said in an interview with PIL and John Lydon (Rotten). Lydon said he didn't much care for the label punk, and his bandmates said if you have to label the movement as "punk" then punk died the first time that the damned took the stage.
I do not like the damned, but power to the people who do... my opinion is no more valid than yours, and yours no better than mine. If everyone always liked the same thing, this world would be a huge bore.
@RemoteMemory Who gives a shit if it didn't bring down the Government? It kicks Arse and is a great drunk-a-long track! Just thrash out to it, enjoy yourself and forget about trying to save the World for once!
What's great about this video is that with each repeated viewing, it's still hilarious. The first time, I focused mostly on the bassist, then Captain Sensible, and then David Damien, and last but definitely not least, the excellent hyper Keith Moon style drummer.
Thanks brian110x. This is as awesome as New Rose. I also watched their Grimly Fiendish and was blown away by their musicianship and excellent songwriting once again. Now I have to check out some other videos by them. I was only half-conscious of them in the early 80s, but better late than never.
@MemoryOfTheRose Thats right dude stick it to the man and keep trolling. Like the rest of the world. Anti-Conformity doesnt exist. Were all our own people. JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE.

Does anyone know what they actually played in this video? It's obviously fake because he snapped the guitars neck off at the end and the guitar was still playing

@RemoteMemory Really? I could have sworn that Mark P said in Sniffin Glue that Punk died the day The Clash signed to CBS! Your comment by the way is totally daft. The Damned back in the day (and especially when 'Machine Gun Ettiquette' came out) were once of the best live bands around. Obviously if you had seen them you would never say such things!

@DoogeMeister
Well, this was said in an interview with PIL and John Lydon (Rotten). Lydon said he didn't much care for the label punk, and his bandmates said if you have to label the movement as "punk" then punk died the first time that the damned took the stage.
I do not like the damned, but power to the people who do... my opinion is no more valid than yours, and yours no better than mine. If everyone always liked the same thing, this world would be a huge bore.

@RemoteMemory Who gives a shit if it didn't bring down the Government? It kicks Arse and is a great drunk-a-long track! Just thrash out to it, enjoy yourself and forget about trying to save the World for once!

What's great about this video is that with each repeated viewing, it's still hilarious. The first time, I focused mostly on the bassist, then Captain Sensible, and then David Damien, and last but definitely not least, the excellent hyper Keith Moon style drummer.

Thanks brian110x. This is as awesome as New Rose. I also watched their Grimly Fiendish and was blown away by their musicianship and excellent songwriting once again. Now I have to check out some other videos by them. I was only half-conscious of them in the early 80s, but better late than never.
