Bob introduced several new pieces, including "Can You Get Me In?" a topical commentary on the illegal alien situation. On another website I said this about Bob's performance: Bobby Haworth is still as crowd-pleasing as ever, with a medley of songs about Colorado that includes his own "Here to Stay in Colorado." He played his saw ("America the Beautiful") for only one set, but had plenty of surprises for the crowd, including strapping a base drum with connected levers, bells & whistles to his back, picking up his banjo, and strolling around the audience floor as "Bob O'Looney's One-Man Band." He brought a neighbor's 2-year-old (his "adopted grandson") on stage to sing the "doo-dah's" with him on "Camptown Races." He introduced a new parody, "The Wreck of the Elephant Gerald" that was a total hoot, and led the Saturday night pub jammers in "American Pie" and other songs. And Bob, you're entitled to say "I Told You So" to me. A man came to the CD table asking for "After All These Years" so he could add "Grazing in the Catbox" to his music collection, even though I find the song disgusting! There were also requests for "Wreck of the Elephant Gerald" on disc and disappointed fans because it wasn't available.
