About this Quote

This quote by Neil Innes is describing the band he was in with Larry, which was called the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band. Innes is discussing that Larry, who was the drummer in the band, would typically get tired and tired while playing and would rather stand and blow kisses to the audience. This indicated that the band required somebody to offer the driving force of the music, which is why they decided to add a bass gamer. Innes is highlighting the significance of the bass player in the band, as they supply the rhythm and momentum that keeps the music going. Without the bass gamer, the band would not have had the ability to maintain the energy and excitement of their efficiencies.
