Danko Jones will support U.K. punk legends The Damned on their upcoming North American tour this fall.

The Damned are touring in support of last year's So, Who's Paranoid?, while Danko Jones will be supporting the U.S. release of last year's Never Too Loud, which comes out south of the border Sept. 8.

Danko Jones the man is featured in the latest installment of the City Sonic series, in which artists discuss Toronto venues and what they mean to them.

Jones talks about Maple Leaf Gardens, his fixation with KISS and how he always wanted to play there. He finally did, but it closed soon after. You can see the clip in our media section.
