I am excited to offer this high-quality photo print of The Damned's lead vocalist, Dave Vanian, performing live at the Punk Rock Bowling festival in 2023. This iconic shot captures the essence of punk rock and gothic rock, featuring Vanian's signature baritone singing voice and dark, vampire-themed attire.

The Damned, formed in London in 1976, are legendary in the punk rock world. Known for their energetic performances and gothic rock influence, they were the first British punk band to release a single ("New Rose") and an album (*Damned Damned Damned*), and to tour the United States. Despite numerous lineup changes over the decades, lead vocalist Dave Vanian has remained a constant force, guiding the band through a remarkable evolution while maintaining their punk roots.

This live photo was taken during their electrifying performance at the 2023 Punk Rock Bowling festival in Downtown Las Vegas. The festival, known for its vibrant atmosphere and diverse lineup, featured 100 bands, including heavyweights like Bad Religion, Dropkick Murphys, and Rancid. The Damned's set was a highlight of the event, showcasing their enduring energy and connection with fans. Despite a shorter-than-usual 45-minute set, The Damned delivered an unforgettable performance that included classics from their extensive discography.

The band powered through a 12-song setlist, kicking off with "Street of Dreams" and closing with their iconic hit "New Rose." Vanian's stage presence was magnetic, as he swayed from side to side, engaging the crowd with his charisma and nearly 50 years of performance experience. The set also included fan favorites like "Neat Neat Neat," "Smash It Up," and "Machine Gun Etiquette," each song a testament to their influence on punk and gothic rock.
