A live cover version of Harry Belafonte’s “The Banana Boat Song (Day-O)” could be heard blasting from the Dudley Brown VFW Pavilion Sunday afternoon as daylight faded, but nobody really wanted to go home.

Hundreds packed the pavilion to see and hear the Doo-Wop singers, a group comprised of some of the most successful singers to come out of Boston from the ‘50s, ‘60s, and ‘70s, and those present were left wanting more. The singers sang for so long, they even had to repeat some songs.

“We’ve got a good crowd here today,” said Ronnie Robinson, a member of a group called the Band of Angels, who put on Doo-Wop Sunday at the pavilion. The Band of Angels is a Boston-based social club that organizes the Juneteenth Celebration at Franklin Park in Boston, which celebrates the end of slavery in America. They brought the Doo-Wop singers to Onset as part of fundraising efforts that go toward feeding the hungry at the Juneteenth Celebration.

The Doo-Wop singers didn’t disappoint.

“It’s been very nice,” said Tina Raneo, a former resident of Onset who now lives in Cape Cod.

Raneo and friends reveled in the old tunes performed by the Doo-Wop singers, attempting to remember the singers/song titles as the Doo-Wop singers performed oldies such as Diane Warwick’s “Alfie” and The Cadillacs' “Woe is Me.”

Buses could be seen among the cars in the packed parking lot at the VFW, and Robinson said several large groups came down from Boston and the Cape to support the Band of Angels and to hear the Doo-Wop Singers perform.

Doo-Woppers Chris Scott and Ilanga are original members of the G-Clefs, a Boston quartet that saw two songs hit the charts. Because some of the founding members are no longer able to perform, they joined forces with John Wyche of the C-Quins, Gilly White of the Original Ambitions, and Linda Henderson of Third Arrival.

“They’ve got a good group here,” said Kevin Hunt of Wareham, who volunteers at the VFW on a regular basis. “There’s a good crowd—not too shabby. And it’s for a good cause.”

“We’re having an awesome time,” said Wyche in between songs at the show, while also thanking the Band of Angels for organizing it. “It’s a wonderful affair to bring your friends and family to.”
