My mom had this whole concert on tape back in the day. i think my uncle got it off of philly public television. Ive been looking for a copy of that performance for years. This was the opening song and im pretty sure it was the same performance. each song had a different skit. I think they ended with "My Shoes". man i miss that tape. i would LOVE to get a hold of a copy. if anyone out there knows shat im talking about email me. awanderingponderer (at) yahoo (dot) com
My introduction to ISO and the Bobs was on the "Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour" for their Mother's Day special in 1988. I was 6 years old and it's been an inspiration to me ever since. By far, one of the most incredible performances I've ever seen, and one of which I will never tire.
ISO stood for "I'm So Optimistic", which was the dance group. The Bob's were an acapella dance group made up uf 3 guys named Bob and a woman honorarily named "Bob". As I recall, the two groups were separate but did collaborate and put together joint performances like the video and what I saw in Alaska.
This is so cool! I actually saw ISO and the Bobs in Anchorage in January of 1990. I remember loving the song and dance, and have tried to explain the technique of coming through the paper wall to many people, but seeing it again is awesome! I didn't remember what song or dance was done along with it.

@astrokitty83 - If you do a search for ISOBOBS DVD on GOOGLE you should be able to find it out there. I bought a copy a couple of years ago.

Always wondered what ISO stood for. I saw ISOBOBS at U of D. Brings back memories.
