We're the only band that's got real communication between the stage and the audience. People know they can come and talk to us and pour beer over us, buy us a drink and spit at us. [Captain Sensible on his group, the Damned]

Captain Sensible was not a captain in any military order, nor was he sensible. His music career was started with a punk rock band "The Damned" that toured England in 1976. After leaving the band, the man known as Raymond Burns re-invented himself with the Captain moniker and tooled around with a signature red beret.
