After Captain Sensible left The Damned in 1984, Jugg moved from keyboards to main guitar and became a full member,on the studio albums Phantasmagoria (1985) and Anything (1986).
After the 1989 breakup of The Damned he continued to work with Dave Vanian and Bryn Merrick, forming The Phantom Chords.[ A studio album called David Vanian and the Phantom Chords was released in 1995.

?The Headhunters?
Raucous rock'n'roll at its best!
The band was formed by Jez Miller on guitar and vocals, Ray Birch on bass and Ozzie on drums.
The above trio have served time as Damned/Lords of the New Church guitarist Brian James band and also backed ex Heartbeaker Walter Lure, as his UK Waldos.
Ray Birch and Oz were the rhythm section in Birmingham's favourite rock'n'rollers Gunfire Dance, which is how they first made Brian's acquaintance, with Rat and him taking on production duties for their Ultra Under 7" vinyl release. When Brian needed fresh blood for the Brian James Gang, he merely had to cast his eye up the M6. Gunfire Dance have recently had a career retrospective album released on Easy Action Records, which has garnered great reviews. The was completed when the trio joined forces with guitarist Martyn Nelson from fellow Brummie glam rockers King Adora, who achieved considerable national and international success in the early 2000s.
The Headhunters set consists of self-penned originals, but given their pedigree, you may well hear the occasional familiar ditty...

Formed in Deptford fun city in 1999 by a bunch of punk survivors and misfits with a love of raw punk n roll; it's our 26th Year too! Not pure punk like Ramones, nor New Wavey-doodle rock'nroll like Talking Heads. Think The Heartbreakers!

The Hope and Anchor on Upper Street stands as a cultural touchstone in Islington, its Grade II listed facade a familiar landmark since 1880. More than a mere public house, it has long served as a crucible for emerging talent, a vital artery in London's live music circuit, and a consistent gathering place for the local community. Its enduring presence underscores a commitment to fostering artistic expression and providing a consistent social anchor for generations of patrons.
Within its walls, the atmosphere carries the faint, resonant hum of countless past performances, a subtle olfactory note of aged timber and spilled ale that speaks to decades of shared experience. The main bar, with its arched windows and a considered arrangement of mixed tables and chairs, offers a comfortable setting for conversation, while the basement venue below pulses with a distinct energy, illuminated by a modern lighting rig that belies its historic foundations.
The venue offers a comprehensive selection of quality drinks, from classic lagers to contemporary cocktails, ensuring diverse palates are catered for. While the main pub area is welcoming, it is important to note that the historic nature of the building means the basement music venue and the upstairs Hope Theatre regrettably lack wheelchair access. An outdoor area provides a welcome respite during warmer months.
Throughout the week, the Hope and Anchor hosts a dynamic programme of events, primarily focusing on live music spanning various genres, from rock and punk to new wave and contemporary acts. Beyond the regular gig schedule, the venue also marks seasonal celebrations and provides a platform for open mic nights, ensuring a continuous flow of entertainment and community engagement.
