I used to help Viv with the chords and melodies sometimes.
I see my role in the Bonzos as being the straight man, in many ways.
Viv had this kind of stage presence where you couldn't ignore it. He walked onstage, he looked dangerous. You just didn't know what he was going to do.
I suppose Roger had the license to do anything that fitted the venue.
I suppose we all loved those kind of sci-fi movies where terrible things came out of swamps and came to Mars. And there's usually some poor girl. All the guys are trying to desperately handle levers and saying, go to something or other.
