Bob performing in person - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

CAJeannieFan57 · 06-15-2006, 08:08 PM

I found out a few weeks ago that Bob Newhart will be performing live in a town not too far from where I live. The performing arts center just opened ticket sales for this coming season, so I called and got GREAT seats for the show.

Now I'm wondering - has anyone here seen him perform live in person?

I asked if there was a Meet-and-Greet scheduled. At this early date (June, and he's not here until January), the answer was "no". But they told me that often times Meet-and-Greets aren't scheduled until the last few weeks before the performance, so I should call back early in January.

I'm so excited - and my husband is really looking forward to this one, too!

wow, when i first glanced at that thread title, i thought that it said "Bob performing in prison", which of course led me to my next thought:

just who do I have to KILL to see Bob do his act live?

That's how I read it, too. I thought the thread was about the episode when Bob went to prison to meet with inmates who were about to be released. He did read some song lyrics aloud in that episode, didn't he? I wouldn't call it a performance, though.

Anyway... I haven't seen him in person, but then I don't get out much.

I haven't; but when my parents went to my fathers high school reunion back in 1993; they saw him. He was the guest speaker because he went to the same high school in Chicago. In fact; he went there at the same time as my father.

Cool stories!! I'm 27 and LOVE Bob Newhart! His shows are so funny without being crass and dirty. I too would welcome the chance to see him live...
