THE DAMNED - FINAL DAMNATION 50

The Damned bring their "Final Damnation 50" tour to the 9:30 Club on Wednesday, October 21, 2026, marking a half-century of punk-rock defiance with a celebratory farewell. The evening features special guests Flamin' Groovies and The Courettes, promising a lineup steeped in garage-psych and retro-rock energy. Raw, theatrical, and endlessly inventive, The Damned remain one of punk’s most influential and enduring acts, having evolved from 1976 originals through goth, psychedelia, and pop before arriving at their late-period triumph *Darkadelic*. Their set will draw from a catalog that includes classics like *Machine Gun Etiquette*, *Black Album*, and *Strawberries*, as well as newer material from *Evil Spirits* and *Darkadelic*, showcasing the band’s signature blend of horror-tinged vaudeville, raw power, and dark melody.
