Tonight I’m going to the theatre in St Andrews, Scotland to see a musical play called “The Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band Changed My Life Forever”. I’ve been told the that the Byre theatre is a great venue which puts on quality productions but to be honest, just going by the title, this would be a subject close to my heart anyway.
Written by Patrick Prior. Directed by Jim Dunk. Performed by Pat Abernethy & Dave Marsden. Q: Is there anything more frustrating than being a one hit wonder? A: Maybe being a One hit Tribute Act This play with songs tells the story of two tribute wannabees, Bob and Eric, who meet at an audition which might be their last chance for fame. The Bonzo Dog newsgroup was proposed by Andy Roberts on 19th March 1998 and gave rise to the Bonzo Dog FAQ which, after several re-re-unions and fallings out is now severely out of date, like much of the world wide web, but the usenet group survives in some form and tells us that the latest incarnation is something called “Three bonzos and a piano“. Well there’s not much more I can say about the show before having actually seen it of course, so I’ll leave it it at that for now, and may be put a placeholder down just below here >>>>>>>… ||||Place Holder||||
