It&#8217;s a lovely small venue. And as we were the only band we got to play two full sets.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>We had a blast and we think the audience did too.

If the Ritzy is small and intimate, the Hootananny is the opposite &#8211; big and loud. We played one long set starting at a quarter past midnight to a big and appreciative crowd, who sang along with many of the songs. It was a long evening given that we had soundchecked at just after six, but worth it as we got a great reception.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Thanks to Cecil Reuben, who has been promoting reggae at the Hootananny for years, for putting us on again.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>And it was good to see a poster from when we supported Neville Staple &#8211; nearly ten years ago &#8211; still on the band room wall.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"4032\" height=\"3024\" class=\"wp-image-2311\" src=\"https:\/\/skamonics.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/IMG_20190505_191604.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>And here&#8217;s Frank onstage:<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/skamonics.co.uk\/wordpress\/2019\/05\/06\/we-tour-brixton\/59409415_10157087804991212_1021806667139907584_n\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2316\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2316\" src=\"https:\/\/skamonics.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/59409415_10157087804991212_1021806667139907584_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><\/p>\r\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00a0<\/h4>\r\n<h4>Hootananny set<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<table class=\"wp-block-table\">\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>\r\n<ul class=\"star\">\r\n<li>Chinatown<\/li>\r\n<li>Guns of Navarone<\/li>\r\n<li>Latin Goes Ska<\/li>\r\n<li>Tide Is High<\/li>\r\n<li>I\u2019m in the Mood For Love\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\r\n<li>Work Song<\/li>\r\n<li>Enola Gay<\/li>\r\n<li>Monkey Man \u00a0<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/td>\r\n<td>\r\n<ul class=\"star\">\r\n<li>London Calling<\/li>\r\n<li>One Step Beyond<\/li>\r\n<li>Simmer Down<\/li>\r\n<li>10 Out Of 10<\/li>\r\n<li>Tainted Love<\/li>\r\n<li>My Boy Lollipop<\/li>\r\n<li>Night Boat To Cairo<\/li>\r\n<li>Gangsters<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<\/tbody>\r\n<\/table>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4>Ritzy set<\/h4>\r\n<table>\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td width=\"308\">\r\n<ul class=\"star\">\r\n<li>Chinatown<\/li>\r\n<li>Guns of Navarone<\/li>\r\n<li>Latin Goes Ska<\/li>\r\n<li>Tide Is High<\/li>\r\n<li>Mood For Love<\/li>\r\n<li>My Baby Just Cares for Me<\/li>\r\n<li>Work Song<\/li>\r\n<li>Mambo Number 5<\/li>\r\n<li>Enola Gay<\/li>\r\n<li>Mad World<\/li>\r\n<li>London Calling<\/li>\r\n<li>Monkey Man<\/li>\r\n<li>Red Red Wine<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/td>\r\n<td width=\"308\">\r\n<ul class=\"star\">\r\n<li>One Step Beyond<\/li>\r\n<li>Misirlou<\/li>\r\n<li>Mountain King<\/li>\r\n<li>Come Dancing<\/li>\r\n<li>Simmer Down<\/li>\r\n<li>10 Out Of 10<\/li>\r\n<li>Tainted Love<\/li>\r\n<li>Rudy A Message To You<\/li>\r\n<li>Baggy Trousers<\/li>\r\n<li>My Boy Lollipop<\/li>\r\n<li>Night Boat To Cairo<\/li>\r\n<li>Gangsters<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<\/tbody>\r\n<\/table>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We have played a couple of gigs in Brixton on the last two Sunday evenings.
