This guy sure does have a bunch of crap. He must be a major packrat. My question is - what on earth is a "strangling hook" and why does he need one?

Just how much more? Because it's not working no matter how much Bill plays. |

He still does Monday nights at the Saxon Pub, I think it's the LonelyLand incarnation.
I could never figure out why The Ugly Americans could not BUY a gig, but the Scabs were the hottest thing since August asphalt. Fame is a fickle, fleeting thing...

Not hardly. Bob fronted Joe Rockhead, The Ugly Americans, The Scabs, and now is fronting a band called Bluegrass Massacree. His styles run the gamut. Ugly Americans and The Scabs had killer horn sections, ripping out some pretty funky stuff. This is by far his most 'conventional' sounding tune. He's been doing a regular Monday night gig at The Saxon Pub for many years, going back to when Sandra Bullock would show up occasionally.

He's famous for really nasty lyrics. 'Don't Be So Stingy (with your Pingy)' is one of the few printable song titles. Oddly enough, women totally LOVE him. He's kind of a jerk but an amazing talent.

I am a big Bob fan and although this album doesn't show off his own multitude of eclectic styles, it is a great straight up rock album. My fav off of it is Game Plan, with Mudhouse as a close second.

This must be the 5th or 6th time I've listened to Bob doing his rap. It has grown on me sort of like a festering carbuncle ripe and tender, full of pus, waiting for that magic moment when it is pierced and the blessed relief comes forth in one noxious gush of putrescent spew.
Ah, the imagery of this song and his others.
'scuse me while I squeeze ....

Machine gun
Biscuits and gravy

I got my ring of fire
Black gold and pearl
Got my monster makeup
Holdin in the world
Holdin in the world (chorus)
I got impossible karate
Got the real live wire
A crazy combination
Couldnt get any higher
Got the gamma radiation
A chocolaty swirl
A sticky implication
Holdin in the world
(chorus)
You cant stop me Im takin out everyone
You cant tell me how to have my fuckin fun
You cant tear me apart the way I do myself
(Holdin in the world)
I dont need anything from no one
Keep your distance stay the hell away from
You cant tear me apart the way I do myself
I got my greasy metal barebone (rifle)
I got the book of the dead
Every Human thing
Stuck inside my head
I got the love sweet affection
Got all my flags unfurled
I got my big stiff gorilla
Holdin in the world
(chorus)
You cant stop me Im takin out everyone
You cant tell me how to have my fuckin fun
You cant tear me apart the way I do myself

I dont need anything from no one so
Keep your distance stay the hell away from me
You cant tear me apart the way I do myself
I got my hot red pony
I got my stranglin hook
I got a big ol burrito
Got all The shit that you took
I got a tattoo of the dead son on my dead son.
I got my fingers all curled
I got a mountain of mountains
Holdin in the world
(Holdin in the world)
You cant stop me Im takin out everyone
You cant tell me how to have my fuckin fun
You cant tear me apart the way I do myself

I dont need anything from noone
Keep your distance stay the hell away from me
You cant tear me apart the way I do myself

Yeah,just when you think you are being lulled into a state of comfortable near brain death some good music comes on.
It's hard not to be letdown after REM sucks the life out of the set.
You'll be OK.  |
