Bob Schneider @ Smith’s Olde Bar: 10/21

Hi, Bob!

I first started listening to Bob when I was living in Austin.  He’s from the area and played in town all the time while I was in college.  Now, he’s playing throughout the southeast and he frequents Smith’s.  In fact, I’ve seen him twice a year at Smith’s over the past five years I’ve lived in Atlanta – which has been awesome and makes me feel right. at. home.

i’ve got so much to put down before that’s all she wrote
i’ve got so much to give before my heart ain’t so broke
i’ve got to find myself before i can ever be alone
ive got a long way to get before i get back home
- Bob Schneider, “A Long Way to Get”

If you’ve ever driven in my car with me, it’s likely you’ve heard a few of my BS favorites, including: “Big Blue Sea,” “I’m Good Now,” “Blue Skies for Everyone,” “A Long Way to Get,” “Tokyo” and “Gold in the Sunset.”  Bob’s shows in Atlanta are intimate and rockin’ and Smith’s is the perfect venue for him.  It’s such a different (and welcomed) experience from seeing him play in Texas where he is a very popular local celebrity…and everyone remembers when he dated fellow Austinite, the beautimus Sandra Bullock. 

and its days like this that burn me
turn me inside out and learn me
not to tell you anything i think i know
well i think i’ll tell you all i know
i don’t want to be alone – i want to be a stone
i wanna sink to the bottom of the ocean
and lie there with you until i’m gone
at the bottom of the big blue sea
just you and me
at the bottom of the big blue sea”
- Bob Schneider, “Big Blue Sea”
