RIP Neil Innes.
Such a shame, as the "Bonzos" had announced a big show at the 02 in May 2020 - following settlement of their court case.

He was also booked to play at The Cavern Club in Liverpool next year as part of Beatle week in August which is a big event in Liverpool EVERY August. R.I.P. Neil Innes

I never realised the that the Band had taken a former Promoter to court. The Promoter had registered the band name, and designed a logo. So they "Bonzos" couldn't use their official name.
They formed under "Bonzo Dog Doo Daa BANNED" instead - took the promoter to court and recently won their case.
If the gig happens at the 02, it's a shame Neil won't be there.

Rip Neil. Sad news. I always think of this when The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band is mentioned.
