And tonight, the Hammerstein Ballroom hosts The Damned's Black Strawberry Ball, which reunites the UK band's iconic 1980s lineup for the first time since 1989.
I hate to be that guy, but the "iconic" line-up of the band features guitarist Brian James, who, to my knowledge, is NOT along for this particular jaunt.
@Alex- Iconic line-up is correct as it refers to the 1980's, not the late 70's line-up with Brian James. If by iconic meaning widely recognized and established then this current line-up fits the bill. Besides which James only played on the first two records while the 2nd one, Music for Pleasure, written mostly by James, is hardly considered iconic.
