Rams Head The Blog

My dearest Monty Python memory harkens back to my high school years.  Two of my best girl friends and I decked out in our favorite pj’s settled in for a Friday night of laughs and dessert as we popped in our VHS copy of Monty Python & The Holy Grail.  This was also the night that I discovered creme brulee – yum, so this film has an extra sweet spot in my heart.

So, Jocelyn & Beth, my dear high school BFF’s…this one’s for you.  None other than Neil Innes, Monty Python Minstrel himself, will be performing here at Rams Head On Stage this Sunday the 31st.

In addition to his appearance in The Holy Grail, Innes appeared with the Bonzo Dog Band UK kids show “Do Not Adjust Your Set” – who’s cast was chock full of future “Pythons”. The band’s hit “I’m the Urban Spaceman” was produced by Apollo C. Vermouth (aka Paul McCartney) and topped the UK charts in 1968.

Ever heard of Bonzo Dog Band “Death Cab for Cutie”?  You can thank Neil & his Bonzo Dog Band for that?  They wrote the song which inspired the American band of the same name.

Check out the trailer for “The Seventh Python” starring our good friend Neil:
