The Bobs A Cappella Holiday Cheer Sunday, November 30, 2008 Get ready to start the holiday season with a bowlful of laughs with The Bobs, an award winning a cappella quartet (with no one in the group named Bob – go figya'), featured regularly on NPR & PBS. Their combined musical wizardry causes audiences to "spontaneously combust" (to quote a Bobs song) with alarming regularity as they reinvent classics like "Psycho Killer" & "Helter Skelter" (which was nominated for a Grammy). The Bobs will perform a holiday concert featuring tunes like "Santa's Got A Brand New Bag", "Fifty Kilowatt Tree", "The Night Before The Night Before Christmas" & "Do You Hear What I Hear, Man?" in addition to some of their non-standards like "Fluffy's Master Plan for World Domination", "A Capella Choir in the Sky" & "Please Let Me Be Your Third World Country". "One of the most entertaining acts on the live circuit today." - The Bergen Record/Home News Tribune |
