I only caught the tail end of his set, but it sounded good. Fortunately, there would be more to come from the up and coming sound system star during the main set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> Gentleman&#8217;s Dub Club appeared at 9pm sharp and they certainly looked sharp, performing, as always, in smart trousers, white shirt and ties, while lead singer Jonathan Scratchley sported a full suit which wouldn&#8217;t have been out of place at a wedding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\nThe\nband had the crowd singing along immediately with the catchy Music Is\nThe Girl I Love from their second album The Big Smoke, and they then\nlaunched into some tracks from the more recent Lost In Space,\nincluding the excellent Stardust and Out Of This World.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ipamusic.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/GDC1.jpg?resize=640%2C480\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2851\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ipamusic.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/GDC1.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ipamusic.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/GDC1.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ipamusic.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/GDC1.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ipamusic.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/GDC1.jpg?resize=1536%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ipamusic.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/GDC1.jpg?w=1600&amp;ssl=1 1600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ipamusic.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/GDC1.jpg?w=1280 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption><strong>Gentleman&#8217;s Dub Club at the Boiler Shop in Newcastle.

The song features vocals by\nthe fantastic reggae artist Bitty McLean, who wasn&#8217;t present tonight,\nbut as drummer Tommy Evans wrote the song, he was brought forward to\ntake on the vocals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\nNow\nI know you&#8217;re probably thinking the same as I was: &#8216;great, but who&#8217;s\ngoing to play the drums?&#8217;.No problem for this lot, as percussionist\nNiall Lavelle shuffled into the drummer&#8217;s seat and didn&#8217;t miss a\nbeat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"404\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ipamusic.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/GDC3.jpg?resize=640%2C404\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2853\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ipamusic.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/GDC3.jpg?resize=1024%2C646&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ipamusic.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/GDC3.jpg?resize=300%2C189&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ipamusic.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/GDC3.jpg?resize=768%2C485&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ipamusic.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/GDC3.jpg?resize=1536%2C969&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ipamusic.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/GDC3.jpg?w=1575&amp;ssl=1 1575w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ipamusic.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/GDC3.jpg?w=1280 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption><strong>Gentleman&#8217;s Dub Club at the Boiler Shop in Newcastle.

It was obvious from the very first song that this is a\nband at the top of their game. They are incredibly tight and Jonathan\nScratchley&#8217;s vocals are excellent. I&#8217;ll certainly be keeping an eye\nout for their next stop in the North East.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LIVE REVIEW: Gentleman&#8217;s Dub Club, Boiler Shop, Newcastle, Sunday 1 March 2020<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":2854,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[2,10],"tags":[726,134,13,214],"class_list":["post-2855","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-gig-review","category-reggae-ska","tag-boiler-shop","tag-newcastle","tag-reggae","tag-uk-tour"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.1 -
