The Bobs, the original "band without instruments," are appearing in Gig Harbor for their fun and hilarious After Christmas Holiday Show with new songs, old songs Bobs fans haven't heard for years, and more of their signature a cappella brilliance and general on-stage mayhem. Who are the Bobs?: Manhattan Transfer meets Monty Python...Robin Williams meets Bobby McFerrin...J.S. Bach meets Jimi Hendrix: Grammy-nominated vocal acrobats (and certifiable nutjobs), that's THE BOBS. This original "bandwithout instruments" has been skewering the classics, breaking all the rules and clear-cutting their own unique path in the world of vocal music for over 25 years, playing everywhere from Lincoln Center to Berlin's Passionkirche. To quote one reviewer, "...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." Praise: "Some performers are brilliant comedians, some are genius musicians, and some just make you happy to be alive. THE BOBS are all of that - and then some." ~ Paul Provenza "The Bobs-entering their second quarter-century of un-paralleled a cappella excellence. Bring it on." ~ Harry Shearer "Fun, inventive and full of sass and spice...quirky, smirky...The material may be splendidly silly, but The Bobs are serious about entertaining and finding your ticklish spot." ~Rob Lester, Talkin' Broadway $25 * contact the Venue listed below for ticketing information
