HomeShut Up And Sing, Indeed: The BOBS 25th Anniversary Concerts

Amy Malkoff's picture

THE BOBS have had very little personnel turnover through the years – and fans can expect some of the original Bobs at these shows well as some who’ve moved the group on the way to other destinations. Current Bobs Matthew Bob Stull and Richard Bob Greene (two remaining originals), Amy Bob Engelhardt (Bobbing since 1998) and Dan Bob Schumacher (Tallest Bob Ever, Bobbing since 2003) will be joined by several Ex-Bobs.

The Bobs’ endurance is trumped only by their unrivaled creativity as they continue to infect audiences with their humor and musicality. To quote a recent review, “At an age when most surviving pop groups grind out a living with warmed over retreads of greatest hits, the Bobs still shine, breaking new ground each time they tunnel out of the sanitorium. The twin keys to the group's creative safe deposit box are unflagging dedication to vocal excellence and utter disregard for everything else. The Capitol Steps are occasionally as funny, and the Roches and the Mockingbirds sometimes achieve similar a capella excellence.”
