The Damned Team Up With Theatre Of Hate

The Damned have secured Theatre Of Hate as special guests for their show in London’s Roundhouse on December 13.

It’s part of a 15-date UK tour that kicks off later this month, with support from Ruts DC.

The current Damned lineup features Dave Vanian, Captain Sensible, drummer Pinch, bassist Stu West and keyboardist Monty Oxy Moron. Theatre Of Hate consists of founders Kirk Brandon, Stan Stammers and John Lennard plus Mike Kelly and Adrian Portas. They’re also on tour during December.

Commenting on the one-off show, Damned frontman Vanian says: “Friday the 13th has always been a special day for this band – we couldn’t believe our luck when we realised it falls in our UK tour period this year.”
