We never thought we\u2019d make it this far and neither did you! But here we are, a finely tuned engine. The Damned still has the power and finesse to excite, entertain and accelerate into our 50th year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Adds Captain Sensible: \u201cWith 50 years of catalogue to choose from, only the best songs from our chequered history will be performed, and with the passion and commitment all good music lovers deserve. You know we won\u2019t disappoint.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Damned will be supported on all dates by Australian punk pioneers The Saints \u201973-\u201978, also celebrating 50 years since their debut single. Led by founding members Ed Kuepper and Ivor Hay, the line-up also features Mick Harvey (The Birthday Party\/The Bad Seeds), Jim White (Dirty Three) and Mark Arm (Mudhoney).<\/p>\n<p>Tickets go on general sale from <a href=\"http:\/\/aegp.uk\/the-damned\" type=\"link\" id=\"aegp.uk\/the-damned\">here<\/a> on Friday (May 1) at 10am BST.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read more from The Damned in Uncut\u2019s recent cover story, copies still available <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.kelsey.co.uk\/single-issue\/uncut-magazine\/359\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/shop.kelsey.co.uk\/single-issue\/uncut-magazine\/359\">here<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uncut.co.uk\/news\/the-damned-announce-final-damnation-50th-anniversary-uk-tour-154415\/\">The Damned announce Final Damnation 50th anniversary UK Tour<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uncut.co.uk\/\">UNCUT<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following their recent triumphant 50th Anniversary show at Wembley Arena, The Damned will continue the celebrations with the Final Damnation 50 tour in November and December.
