IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT TONIGHT’S PERFORMANCE

We’re getting in touch to inform you that unfortunately, tonight’s performance of The Damned (Thursday 19 December) has had to be cancelled due to illness.

The Damned have issued the following statement:

We’re really sorry to have to cancel the Roundhouse show this evening. Our good Captain has been taken unwell and despite his protestations, the Doctor has decided that he is simply not able to go on stage this evening. Obviously everyone including Cap are disappointed to not to be performing on the last night – we’re sorry for everyone who has travelled, some of you flown in for it. Rest assured we will be back! It has been an amazing tour. But everyone’s health must come first.

Have a Merry Christmas and we wish you all a Happy New Year.

If you booked tickets, you are entitled to a refund; if you booked through Roundhouse,  we will be back in touch directly otherwise, please be in contact with the ticket agent you booked through.

Music pioneers The Damned announce their return to the Roundhouse, a significant venue in their long standing career, bringing their 80’s line-up back together after 35 years. Also welcoming Rat Scabies back to the stage, who has rejoined the band for tours, festivals and more in 2024. One of the original founding members, The Damned drummer Scabies puts it simply – ‘’Be careful what you wish for.’’

Following their formation in 1976, The Damned became the first UK punk band to officially release a single, ‘New Rose’, and an album Damned Damned Damned. With 12 studio albums and several UK chart singles, the band are pioneers who emerged from the London punk scene, earning an ever-expanding fan base fuelled by legendary live shows. Their dark lyrics and Dave Vanian’s rich baritone vocals also catapulted The Damned to the forefront of the Goth-Rock Genre. The Damned of today defy any categorisation and the ease of which songs from all phases of their career fit together in this ground-breaking spectacle is absolute proof.
