Short Description
"The Brass Band (later known as Tour de Farce) were an American musical comedy troupe, based in San Francisco, who won the Edinburgh Comedy Award in 1984. They comprised five members - Loois Tooloose, Jimby, Fritz van der Vol (or Frumheimer), The Captain and Buford.

Van der Vol (real name Johannes Mager) played the tuba, The Captain (real name Bob Jennings) played the trombone, Buford (George Wallace) played the baritone horn, Jimby (James Aron) and Loois Tooloose (Bob Leach) both played the trumpet. Often they would play lengths of garden hose with mouthpieces attached. They wore costumes which collectively formed a band uniform. Aron, for example, wore an aviator's helmet. They each adopted distinct personas. For example, Van der Vol was the center of attention, the Captain was the straight man. " - (en.wikipedia.org 09.07.2021)
