We are sorry to hear of the death of Micky Fitz – the charismatic lead singer of The Business who had died of cancer.

We had met Micky several times over the years and were always entranced by his wild enthusiasm for music or cameras or life or great rapscallion tales of life and music which he related with a garaloys charm and a voice that was cracked like old leather from years of rabble rousing.

Last time we we saw him he regaled us with great tales in a pub in SE London on a great evening of hilarity and energetic story telling . Magical.

He was a great frontman and a genuine charachter and owned the stage when he played with the band who were one of the classic oi bands.
