Mark Evans and Bob Spencer Join Rose Tattoo

Angry Anderson has recruited a new Rose Tattoo line-up, which now merges the sounds of AC/DC and The Angels into The Tatts.

Former AC/DC bass player Mark Evans is the new bass player, former Angels and Skyhooks guitarist Bob Spencer is on guitar. John ‘Watto’ Watson is the bands drummer and Dai Pritchard remains on slide guitar since 2007.

Bob revealed the new Rose Tattoo line-up at his Facebook page:

With Rose Tattoo, The Angels and AC/DC being rolled into one the rock legacy of their original label Albert Productions continues. Rose Tattoo recorded four albums for Alberts between 1978 and 1984. The Angels were an Alberts band for three albums from 1977 to 1979 (although Spencer didn’t join the band until 1986). AC/DC are still on Alberts. Evans was with AC/DC for four albums (an arguably their best) from 1975 to 1977.

Toto’s 2025 setlist focuses on the heritage of the band. The setlist was interesting. Compared to how it was curated for Australia in 2019 this time Toto kept to the albums of the 1900s. Mind you, there were no complaints from the audience for doing that. The biggest hits came from those early years.
