The Damned - Lloyd Park - This Saturday!

[Snoop Doug]

Weather permitting I fancy taking the family down to the Croydon festival and jumpin about to the Damned. Heh - takes me back. I saw that Chris L might be going - anyone else fancy it?

Is she really going out with him....?

Excellent! And the Lightning Seeds, I hope they play The Nearly Man

I have a 10 in Farnham in the afternoon but depending what time I get back I might pop down on the MTB for a mooch about and see what's what.

Wahey!

That was good fun. Good set from The Damned, plus I liked Rox who was on before them too. As far as I can recall, the set list was:

Wait for the Blackout
Just Can't be Happy Today
Neat Neat Neat
History of the World
New Rose
Love Song
Eloise
Jet Boy Jet Girl
Smash it Up

Doubtless a few more...

Martha wossname was simply awful and we left after a few Lightning Seeds numbers to get the tram before it all kicked off. Caught up with Dave Vanian (Damned singer) on the way out and said something like..."I've been coming to your gigs since I was a boy and....that was a good one" (creep creep) he replied "phew, for a second I thought you were going to call me Dad!" In my humble opinion they shoulda headlined.

"My kinda town....Croydon is" he he
