The Damned Reveal “Final Damnation 50” World Tour Dates

UK punk veterans The Damned have confirmed further dates celebrating the band’s 50th anniversary, including shows in Australia, New Zealand, Spain, the USA and the UK. The freshly announced tour dates follow on from the band’s previously announced EU and UK festival and headline tour dates, you can view the band’s tour dates, book tickets and sign up for ticket pre-sales via the band’s mailing list here. The band recently released their latest full length, Not Like Everybody Else, that was recorded as a tribute to the band’s late guitarist and founder member Brian James, with each tune chosen because it was by an artist who had an impact on Brian’s guitar playing and, in turn, his songwriting and The Damned as a band.

“We are delighted to announce the expansion of our Final Damnation 50 tour beyond its original territories and into the UK, Spain and Japan… it’s all starting to resemble a world tour where the Damned traverse the globe spreading joy and happiness wherever they go… or something like anyway! Right now the band are really enjoying this golden period in the latter period of a fairly rollercoaster career… which gives us the freedom to dig deep and roam wide… which is PR speak for ‘do whatever the fuck we like’, so the setlist won’t be playing it safe, expect twists, turns, and some unpredictability drawn from across the various stages of the Damned.”
