Dumplins Live ska is a monthly night at the Fiddler’s Elbow close to Chalk Farm in Camden.
It is probably our favourite gig.
The crowd enjoy their ska, and are happy to hear rarities and new stuff as well as the old favourites. There is always great sound – both out front and on stage.
There’s no sense of their being a support and headliner – both bands get the same time and equal billing.
We were very happy to play there at the beginning of August (though holidays have intervened to stop a write-up until now).
Thanks to Michelle we have some great pictures from the night, some of which are below.
We thought that we were on particularly good form, and certainly got a great audience response. It was also good to share a bill with the Estimators , who love their traditional ska as much as we do.
This is what we played – the first time we have played Doctor Who live for a long time.
