I've also "known" him for 11 or so years. He's my people! The first time I
saw him I had to laugh at how idiotic he looked doing that goofy dance, then
I thought, wow, I wonder what it would be like to be comfortable enough with
myself to get up and act that goofy without giving a shit what anyone
though...
So on one hand I appreciate him, and on another, it seems he was always
showing up when I was really enjoying a band and then getting right in front
of me and doing his goofy dogpaddle dance where I couldn't concentrate on
the band or the music anymore. Times like that I wanted to kick his ass back
onto the short yellow bus.
Cheers,
Gary

I've 'known' (there may be one or two people, I'm guessing who 'know' Bob,
I'm guessing) Beatle Bob for 11 years or so, since the very early days of
Not Lame. He's a special guy, in all the good connected to that simple
statement. Something like this is long over-due, but this little
documentary leaves a *lot* to desired, catching none of the unique special
spirit of BB, from his mouth and even others(Mojo Nixon's comments at the
end are great). The live shots are lazy, poorly lit, have bad angles and
none of them show and display his best moves, most classic moves(there are
many variations). And, Bob gives a lot better interviews than presented
here, as well.
He's a true enigma, but that mysterium is barely scratched here.
Missed Opportunity, sorry to say.
Ken, did you like this or did you feel the same way?
