Tuesday nights in early January are probably not the best nights for attracting a crowd. Add in heavy rain, and we were half expecting to be playing to an empty pub.<\/p>\n

\"1462857_679964262034523_1595849265_n\"<\/a>It was good therefore to see not just a pretty fair attendance but a full dance floor last night.<\/p>\n

We like the Hootananny as it has a good stage and excellent sound, particularly in the hands of our last night’s engineer Geoff, who has mixed us before.<\/p>\n

We also got the chance to play two full sets. And this is what we played:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Chinatown<\/td>\nDr Who<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Guns Of Navarone<\/td>\nWork Song<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Latin Goes Ska<\/td>\nJohnny Too Bad<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Mood For Love<\/td>\nParanoid<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
You’re Wondering Now<\/td>\nPata Pata<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Harder They Come<\/td>\n10 Out Of 10<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Alley Cat Ska<\/td>\n99 Red Balloons<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Man In The Street<\/td>\nTainted Love<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Mambo Number 5<\/td>\nRudy A Message To You<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Tide Is High<\/td>\nMy Boy Lollipop<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Enola Gay<\/td>\nGangsters<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Price Tag<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

It went down well, and we hope to be asked back. Promoter Cecil Reuben knows his ska, and liked what we played.<\/p>\n

We didn’t take any pictures but is anyone in the audience did we’d love to see them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
