Ronny and old Splodge line-up on TV Harry Hill Burps

Ronny Rocka along with the old Splodge line-up performed on Harry Hill burps on Ch.4 Sat.4th Feb. at 5.15pm.
How it all started was on the second series of Rock School, staring Gene Simmons on his quest to make a rock & roll band out of a bunch of renegade kids from a Suffolk secondary school. During the four part series Splodges ex drummer Ricci Titcombe was hired to drive Gene around the local area, on the first episode he plays Gene a Splodge track 'Two pints of lager and a packet of crisps' saying," he has not always been a driver in fact we had a hit single," Gene looking lost not having a UK hit himself and continued to pogo on the back seat, while trying to understand the British sense of humors. He repeat's "Two pints of lager and a frazzle of crimps"You what Gene?. So Harry Hill has decided to review that clip on his show and invited the band SPLODGENESSABOUNDS to play live in the studio while Harry dresses as Gene in the full Kiss outfit singing the new found words. Great Viewing..
