The Doomed (The Damned) - Live Electric Ballroom 1978

 The Doomed (The Damned) - Live
Electric Ballroom 
Camden, UK.
September 5, 1978 (per Bootleg Zone)
Liberated bootleg @192

Last gig as The Doomed (though also seen advertised as The Damned). Gig re-arranged from 21 December. This gig sometimes incorrectly listed as 23 September 1978, 23 October 1978 or 23 January 1979. (Unconfirmed)

Audience recording of a one-off show performed by members of the Damned (Dave Vanian, Rat Scabies and Captain Sensible) and Lemmy from Motorhead. Brian James had left the band, taking the rights to their name with him, leaving them to use the name "The Doomed" as an approximation. Not a bad show, but the recording is a bit rough, although certainly listenable - loud rather than muddy/distorted. They played mainly Damned songs, with a couple of Lemmy's thrown in (Hawkwind's "Silver Machine" and Motorhead's "City Kids").

A bit on the rough side...
