Three bonzos and a piano are:

roger ruskin spear

rodney slater

sam spoons

dave glasson





all fans of the bonzo dog doo-dah band will be delighted to learn that band members roger ruskin spear, rodney slater and sam spoons have teamed up with founder whoopee band chum dave glasson to continue creating fun, music and mayhem in the spirit of the bonzos.

“we are just a small part of the bonzos - a sort of ‘bash street bonzos’!” (said roger, at their first show)

who knows, in the future . . . . ???


sam played with dave in the whoopee band in the 60s and 70s and then formed tatty ollity with roger and dave. roger and dave went on to form the slightly dangerous brothers in the 80s, whilst sam formed bill posters will be band in 1983 with other whoopee band members.


from this you will have gathered that they are not in the first flush of youth, so it’s amazing they know how to operate a computer, never mind a website!

My family and I were at the Brighton show (23rd May) and it was one of the best nights of our year so far. Absolute Bonzo magic! I love them all and just sorry I am too young to have seen them when Viv was still with us. God bless them all. RACHEL HAYWARD. x
