Yes, they are The Gonzo Survivors, Bob Livingston, John Inmon and Mike Hardwick who were formed by Jerry Jeff to accompany him on his musical and travel adventures. They toured hard and played on many of Jerry Jeff's albums including Gypsy Songman, Navajo Rug, Hill Country Rain, Christmas Gonzo Style, Viva Luckenbach!, Night After Night, Scamp and Cowboy Boots & Bathing Suits.
They all sang raucous Texas harmonies and played with wild abandon following Jerry Jeff's lead. Bob and John and Mike had both been members of the original Lost Gonzo Band and Banditos. Jerry Jeff said it was the best band he ever had.
The Gonzo Members were with Jerry Jeff off and on from 1983 until the end of the 1990s before they went their separate ways. After fourteen years, a dozen records made, thousands of miles traveled and hundreds and hundreds of shows across the USA, Canada, Great Britain and Scandinavia. Bob had moved away from the honky-tonks and continued on as a solo singer-songwriter on the folk circuit.
