MySpace a place for friends

Our agent is taking bookings now so if you have think any venues in your area might be interested ask them to contact us via here or the Official Damned website.

There's not so many current bands that can match that lot for inventiveness but Stereolab, Zero Zero, Sing Sing and Zoot Woman sound like the real thing - well, to my ear anyway.

Working with wonderful bands like Zombina and the Skeletones, Spookey, The Priscillas and Polysics keeps us on our toes as well... check them out if they're gigging down your way.

And now, by popular request I'm gonna post my all time top ten fav albums.....

1) Groundhogs - 'Thank Christ For The Bomb'

2) Brian Auger's Oblivion Express - 'Brian Auger's Oblivion Express'

3) Syd's Pink Floyd - 'Piper at the Gates Of Dawn'

4) Pink Fairies - 'Never Never Land'

5) Soft Machine - 'Vol 1+2'

6) Egg - 'The Polite Force'

7) Electric Prunes - 'Lost Dreams'

8) Bee Gees - 'First'

9) Stray - 'Stray'

10) Jimi Hendrix - 'Smash Hits'

You could do a lot worse than giving some of these superb records a spin playmates, but don't expect to go trawling through them looking for nicked riffs and the like - I never do THAT kind of thing.... ahem!

But, for those of you who've not had the pleasure (fnar fnar!) let me tell you a bit about myself and my wonderful and occasionally bizarre music carreer..............

Well, after a few years punking it up with Johnny Moped and the Damned somehow I found myself on Top Of The Pops singing a showtune from South Pacific... 'Happy Talk' it was called (how could you ever forget!) and nothing was ever the same again.

As a former toilet cleaner for Croydon Council I wasn't going to tell the record label to stick all that dosh up their bums now, was I... so that's how I became the most unlikely popstar in Britain.

After 2 albums of (even if I say so myself) classic synth-pop on A+M Records - 'Women an Captain's First' and 'The Power Of Love' I left to record more indie sounding guitar based records like 'Revolution Now' and my cosmic rock opera 'The Universe of Geoffrey Brown' which I'm rather proud of.

These days I still perform with that lovable bunch of rogues The Damned - who are playing better than ever currently.... and also with Mike Peters and Slim Jim Phantom on an as yet un-named band project - they're nice chaps and we see eye to eye musically as well... so we're gonna make a pretty interesting album sometime soon methinks!!

I have had a few complaints that Xmas Catalog has been unavailable to download from the music player on this page, which shouldn't be the case as the lovely Tintin has set things up so you can download the songs if you feel that way inclined. Anyway, just in case things ARE a bit iffy I have posted my poptastic Xmas ditty in the Captain Sensible section of the (click the link)
