A note from Zoot: I’m welcoming you back to the Bull’s Head this Thursday. All those who already have their tickets as well as those of you who are contemplating coming on the door. The band have missed you all and can’t wait to play for you. Good times are back again… enjoy them with us. See you there…. in SW13.
Last chance to see Zoot in his swinging Seventies before he enters his energetic Eighties!! And on home turf too. You’d be mad to miss it. Mad.
Here is proof of a (no rehearsal) jolly night’s gig I had with Sebastian + The Poor Valley Marauders in Birkenhead on Tuesday. Immense and tremendous fun!

Hi there rollers…
well here we are in 2022 ..
we made it so let’s hope we keep making it.
It’s my “octieyear” so I’ll be celebrating in July…in disbelief.
Take care, stay healthy and safe.
Keep rolling.
Ahoy there, Rollers – some rotten news, I’m afraid.
Escape From Turkey Sandwiches will NOT now take place on Thursday 30th December. Contact whoever you bought your tickets from to ensure you get a refund.
Sorry about that, you’ll just have to grin and bear it for another few weeks. Those sandwiches will need to get eaten after all. Or you could shovel the leftovers into a big roll… (see what I did there?)
You’ve all been so supportive this year, I look forward to repaying you with an EVEN BETTER gig in January or whenever it’s declared safe to return. We shall “rise again” as soon as it’s allowed!!
Meanwhile keep on rolling. Best wishes for a happy Christmas and New Year from me and the Big Roll Band.
A nice memory of Retro Festival 2021 – over 56 years since Zoot Money first shared a Ricky-Tick stage!

Paul Williams 1940-2019
One more Roller gone.
Again fate helps me to remember the truly pleasurable friendship I shared with the talented, funny, on-the-edge but charming with it … Paul Williams.
From the moment we met in ’63 when we both played in the Wes Minster Five right up until only two weeks before his ‘leaving’ I never stopped laughing in his presence.
My kindest thoughts go to Diane, Sam and Ashton of course. Wonderful voice, good bass player, excellent fake piano-player with a remarkable ear for harmony and absurd humour. An enormous loss to music and friends.
Rest in peace Squiblett … your memory will stay with me forever.
