I've listened to The Bobs since I was very little, before they were cool, so to speak (at least for my generation). XD I'm so glad this footage is up here, it would be great to see them as popular with my generation as they were with my parents'.
Saw The Bobs at the Ark in Ann Arbor around the time of this video. My friends were great fans, and had forced me to listen to the albums, but The Bobs didn't click with me for some reason. Didn't like them. Then my friends dragged me to the live show and as I recall we watched them from the cushions at the foot of the stage. So I saw this song and all their others from about ten feet away. I left an absolute fan. My two favorites: this song and "Mopping."
Thanks for posting this, it's great to see the original line-up again. I miss Gunnar and Janie! (although got to see them at the 25th anniversary shows in Berkeley a few years ago)
Man, I was on the theater staff at the UW-Marathon County campus when them came to do show, so I was very lucky to work with these guys! There was a fifth member in the group at the time, about two years after this recording, I think. I ran spotlight and this was definitely the most enjoyable song to do because I just KNEW Gunnar was going to be the guy to focus on--and I was right!
And people pay money to see this!!

This band could've been great if their songs had points and didn't have awkward sounds in them

From a distance, this could be Ed Begley, one of the backup guys from Dschingis Khan, Nana Visitor, and Harlan Ellison.
Great cover, I had this tape and it gave many moments of enjoyment in college.

Sweet Fancy Moses, Sorry but this Bobby McFerrin acapella type crap is so painful to listen to.

What's their going rate today? $500 a show? I'd pay them that to go on Midnight at the Apollo just to see what the fuck happens!

This one of the first songs the group ever did. And it was the 80s when they recorded it. And Gunner looks a bit psycho, doesn't he?

I can't imagine why Matthew Bob shaved his 'stache.... It doesn't look dated at all.
