The Damned Announce North And South American Tour

Punk legends The Damned have announced that they will be launching a tour of North and South America next year featuring the iconic early 1980s lineup of Captain Sensible, Dave Vanian, Rat Scabies and Paul Gray.

The North American portion will feature support from The Bellrays from May 1st through May 14th with The Adverts taking over for the rest of the trek that will wrap up on May 31st.

The group shared via social media, "The Damned are delighted to announce a first for Rat and several firsts for the rest of the lads when in March they finally get to play South America proper, with shows in Brazil, Peru, Chile & Argentina

"As Mexico proved to us, there are many loyal fans in South America that never had the chance to witness the Damned in full flight we played a great show that night and not one of them complained, so we still got it...

"And while we have your attention we would like to announce a tour of North America during May which leads us to even more good news, which is that we will be joined by both The Bellrays & The Adverts. This is not going to be a show to miss!

"Tickets go on sale this Friday 22 November, 10am local time. So either be there or be the person outside wishing they'd bought a ticket after all..."
