Ahhh... There's a refreshing dose of AnnePics to make this rainy day a little brighter. (I had mostly given up on the hope for massive torrents of BobPics) But I stil like TightPantsBob better.

Yes, tis Thursday... but what's more important is FRIDAY!!

TGIBD!!!!

 Um...Squeezy..not to question your devotion at all things Bob, but Sean's twittering birthday wishes to Bob today. You sure you're looking at the right month, or is Sean still "recovering" from Alan's birthday bash?

Sean must be recovering from Alan's birthday. Bob's birthday is the 23rd.Confirmed by him in a former post in the OKP on his birhtday, I'll see if I saved it or not...

Woah, Fran!  You frightened me there for a second!  (I still have a text message on my old cell phone that Kevin sent me last May 23rd that says, "Carrie confirmed that it is indeed BobDay. Celebrate accord(ion)ingly!")

Frosty will vouch for me, Sean wished Bob a Happy Birthday on Twitter today.

What's the Sean equivalent to "I've been Doyled"? (I've been McCanned just sounds wrong for some reason).

It's true! He also said Bob was 50 though...

How about I've been McTricked?   (Okay, I know your head just went all Gray's Anatomy on me! Hahaha!!)

Our BobThreads are distressingly low in the forum listings.  I fear the heyday of the Bobsessed has come and gone *sad face*

However, I thought I'd revive this thread by posting some pictures I took of Bob at the Akron concert and posting a link to an older version of "Banks of Newfoundland" that I found on YouTube and thought you all might enjoy.  While listening to FF BoN over and over and over and over and over and over and over......

 

I especially enjoy the last two (the Stern Look and the Impending BobGrin)

Squeezy, I think your enthusiasm for all things Bob makes up for any Bobite who may be MIA these days!

Some people shine like a star in the first moment. Others keep their light hidden until they are ready to show us.

Nice shots!!!!

I got one nice one of Bob at Wolftrap, none at Dewey Beach. Here's my WOlftrap one.

Bob was in excellent form this weekend at the Halifax shows, Squeezy. My friend got some cool shots. I'll post a couple of them for you here when I get copies.

Thanks, Anne.    That's quite a compliment, coming from you.  I was 8 feet away from Bob for the entire show... and understandably thrilled about it!!!  Also, I should mention for those who don't know that I loveloveloveloveLOVE the shirt He was wearing that night, and vow to steal it should the opportunity ever arise.

Like your pic too, Anne.  Perhaps it's the angle or the lighting, but He looks somewhat like... ScruffyBob.  Perhaps that's just me.

Mmmm... ScruffyBob...

A nice shiny new picture of Bob for y'all....

*OMG*    The treat of the Madison show last night?  BOB'S SOLO!!!!     Not because he doesn't already do phenomenal solo's in other songs on every instrument from A to Z, but because this was just Bob and only Bob on stage, playing a waltz on the squeezbox.  He even had a back story about the piece to share with us before he played (yes, Bob spoke!  And more than a few words).  The crowd loved it so well that Alan reminded Bobthat he couldn't start his solo career just yet because the rest of the band had mortgages.

And a clip that has part of said waltz:

More to follow in show reviews but I couldn't wait to share this bit.
