These guys were a long time on my list if gotta see’s! What a terrific band. A tight, wonderfully engaging show. “New Rose” gave me a jolt, as it always does, but so did all the other tunes they played. These guys are terrific performers! The evening was neat, neat, neat!

Better than I expected. They played most of my favorites. I had forgotten they have some of the most iconic bass guitar intros ever. Would love to have heard “Under The Floor Again”, one of my all time favorite guitar solos on that one. 2 encores! If you’re a fan don’t miss this tour.

What a fantastic evening at The Fonda Theatre on Friday, June 7, 2024, to see The Damned! Absolutely no disappointments about the performance because they were all on top of their game and everyone that attended seemed to agree! I wish they had a residency here in the US for awhile so they wouldn’t have to endure grueling travel. I try to see them every year because they are still so good and so much fun! CJ

The Damned were absolutely amazing! They were on my list for sure. We saw them at Fiddler's Green but I think a smaller venue like the Gothic was the right decision. It was our first time at the Gothic and it's a great venue. The sight lines were awesome and it was easy to get drinks. I'd recommend this place to see showt

Honestly at first I wasn't sure if this was the best venue for this type of show. I don't know if it was the crowd or the venue or both but, it was AWESOME! The Damned was on fire as always. I managed to get a great spot near the front and didn't get crushed! That's a first. Probably the best show I've ever been to♥️

The masters of fun Captain & Damian still have it all together. Always showing their best. This is a classic venue(not tailored or made for fake like the Big night live or MGM) Super friendly and with the most amazing people in the crowd.

Fantastic night with the Damned. As good as ever with great new material. Darkadelic is a brilliant album. The House of Blues in Anaheim is a great venue. Just an outstanding evening. I hope I get to see the Damned again soon.

the Damned never disappoint but this was a blisteringly brilliant show. played almost the whole new album plus a bunch of great songs from all eras. they deserve to be even more famous but they are the best underground band ever

We flew with my wife from DC just for this concert. They are that good. They are the most solid band around. Tight as no other act. I appreciate that they play the new album and their classics. Always close to their audience. Vanian was spotless, Captain was brilliant. Monty is a great stage presence. Mr Gray was fantastic and the feel with Will Taylor, the drummer was evident in Motorcycle Man. Still my favorite band. Mr Vanian, if you read this, not that it matters, but I never winked! Rock on!!

The show was awesome. The Damned played the perfect mix of old and new. The venue was great aside from a couple of minor nitpicking issues…. The sound could have been a little better as there were a couple of issues. Also, the charge for balcony seats was totally unnecessary.

The Damned concert was a pleasure as always. As a 20 year old fan, I don’t feel any different from the rest of the crowd, I feel welcome at the concert which is a huge plus! The music sounded amazing, and I really enjoyed the new material for the new Darkadelic album! A really throroughly enjoyable concert and once again memories to last a life time. Long love the Damned - my all time favourite band. True musical geniuses 🖤

Fair play for pensioners they were banging. Even with the dreaded 'we playing from our new album' 2 encores and kept it going all night. Support from Sky Arts documentary characters was top notched as well

Sound was awful, guitars too high, vocals too low, could hardly hear Dave sing, ok when the captain joined in but otherwise not a great night. To be honest a strange venue for a punk band when there are so many other more suitable places they could have booked given the audience numbers

The damned were great! I saw the casualties in the crowd. It was weird seeing a punk band in a place that had seats. The food was overpriced and the seats seemed to restrict movement so it was pretty tame. It’s best to see them at a festival or a bar venue.

Dave Vanian is completely underrated as one of the greatest frontmen and vocalists in Rock and Roll. The Damned plowed through over 20 songs; most from their early Punk albums with a splash of 80s pop and soundtrack hits and some of their well known satirical covers. Captain Sensible with a broken rib from a stage fall a few weeks ago; one upped Axl and Grohl by playing seated on a crusty toilet throne with the tank converted to a beer cooler. At 64, he still played with rigor and abandon, occasionally riffing ten seconds of everything from Pearl Jam to Billy Joel during intros. He had one false start, replaying New Rose when they were playing neat neat neat. No clue how he's doing back to back shows without rest. Oxymoron was the court jester - hippy hype man - cheering the crowd to sing along and dance. These guys have been together almost twenty years, 40 for Vanian and Sensible, and tonight wasn't even close to a punk rock show; or a greatest hits review. It was five individuals putting together a solid musical performance of Rock and Roll and radio standards. Two three song encores - and they could have gone all night. Gosh have they evolved.

What can I say? Alice Bag opened! Such a great surprise! Talk about the early LA scene...Castration Squad? The Bags? Classic LA punk. Turns out she was at that first Damned show 40 years ago and within a few weeks of seeing them she formed a band of her own. It was only fitting she open for the band that inspired her 4 decades ago. The Damned performed an especially energetic set. They exhibited a lot more punch than the last time I saw them; of course this time they had a bigger stage to run around on. Captain Sensibles antics never disappoint and Dave Vanian still dresses nattily and croons as smoothly as always. Set list was a neat mix of early and mid-discography songs. There were 2 encores and by the time they left stage for good I think everybody was satisfied. I certainly was.

The band was great guys were having fun and sounded good. They played all the hits from newest back to New Rose and an encore. Crowd had good energy and made it fun for the band. Venue was very appropriate The Belasco is kinda Gothic and has good acoustics.

brilliant they just keep getting better and better set list was just perfect the damned are truly underated and deserve more credit than what they get highlights for me were history of the world ignite and as always smash it up

An excellent Gig probably the best I've saw The Damned in recent years. They played an excellent set of Damned classics and singer Dave Vanian was in fine form. The support bands The Media Whores & Crashed Out also played good sets.

Brilliant, as always. Just wish they would play some of the newer stuff too. Great entertainment and the best vocals you'll hear anywhere. But don't tell everyone... as I want to be able to get future tickets!
