Captain Sensible (born Raymond Burns, April 24, 1954 in Balham, London, England) is a singer and guitarist (and sometimes bassist) who founded the punk rock band The Damned in 1976. After leaving the band, he reinvented himself as a new-wave singer with a rebellious, self-conscious image. In 1980, he went to the Netherlands. Poison Girls and Annie Anxiety were playing in the Paard van Troje in The Hague then. Cheap'n'Nasty were support band: but could not find their drummer boy Maarten. <a href
