Never saw the Dammed in there hayday ,but have seen them a couple of times on tour with Motorhead :thumbsup:
 
Saw Motorhead a couple of years ago in Sheffield (venue was the ex Roxy night club, for the life of me ***BEER*** I can't remember its name)

They couldn't have picked a worse Damned track to play and much as I like em XTC and Joy Division ain't Punk!

hooked, brings back memories.............45's remember them?

My daughter wanted to know what the black CDs were and how did they work :) Time to get the old turntable down from the roof...
 
Must confess all my vinyl lives 200 miles away, its digital all the way for me as its so much more accessible.

That said there was nothing to beat the feeling as a teenager of getting a picture cover 45 in my hands from Bradley records in Doncaster on a saturday morning................downloading junst isn't as tangible.

Yep they could have picked a few better songs !
Have more than a few nights were the band name has gone missing never mind the venue :D

Think that was part of the experience rushing home to play the song on a crappy old player and slagging people off for there choice of music at school :)
 
All brilliant and 6music has been getting stuck in too. Fantastic stuff - Not sure what Motorhead has to do with punk unless they're reinventing themselves by covering some punk tracks. Did they also do Joy Division & XTC? Honestly????

Too right, no better feeling than leaving em all confused at school by slagging off Olivia Newton John while extolling the virtues of DEVO.

Superiority complex, unapologetic musical snob............... yep.

Motorhead have a long history of playing with punk bands in the early days and just recently with anti-nowhere league, uk subs and the dammed to name a few :)

Used to have 000s of vinyl. Sadly all gone now :(

No vinyl and it's all gone? You must be an accountant! :D

Not quite. Close!

Had stacks of vinyl in my DJ days. The warm sound o vinyl simply can't be replicated with CDs or downloads. I have plans to get back into vinyl at some point

I still have all my vinyl although I don't really ever play them now. As my first love was punk I have a very large collection of punk on vinyl ranging from 70's stuff (Pistols, Banshees, Sham 69, Cockney Rejects etc) through 80's (Dead Kennedys, Exploited, GBH, Anti-Pasti, Discharge et al). Still into it now along with metal. I too have seen Motörhead many times. :)
