Re: (TV) The Damned

["J. GERMAINE" <jpg@sirius.com>]

If my memory serves me right it was the Dead Boys. I do remember that the Damned
started their set by throwing a birthday cake out to the audience.They said it
was Mick Jagger's birthday! They were met with a barrage of beer bottles. Other
that that the show was a drag. At end of the night I ended up in Rat Scabies
hotel room  and I vaguely remember trying to throw a television out the window.
Maybe that was the show you saw.
Yes, the Sales bros. were not very exciting.
