Artist History
Vote Bob is a 4-piece band based in and around the Bury St.Edmunds area and have all plied their trade in various bands covering many different styles over the last 5 years. After viewing many cover bands doing the same old songs they decided to have a go at picking their covers with a bit more originality.
The mighty bob formed at the beginning of 2001 with the full intention of breaking up as soon as possible. Unfortunately for the general public and music fans everywhere this has still to happen. They have perfected playing bad songs well and for all intense and purposes are actually enjoying it. Currently
the band is working on some original songs, as there is only so long that you can bastardize other people’s music before you get shot at. The work is in progress so that some time early in 2002 they can go into the studio and start recording whatever they manage to come up with.The band is influence by the
current resurgence of the bubblegum Punk era as this fit’s the bands personality well (we are not extremely angry about anything but like a good fast tempo). Our roots lie in classic rock and the grunge of the early nineties and this can be heard in our loud and abrasive sound. Despite all of the intensions
of the band people actually turn up to see them play and some people even liked it to the point where they have returned on a regular basis. This just goes to show that there are many people in this world who are crying out for psychological help. Until these people get the help that they so desperately need
the band is happy to carry on entertaining them. |

Group Members
Station (aka Arbee, Ryan, Fat Bastard, Spunky, Penfold)
Station is a result of a secret government experiment carried out in the early 70’s to combine the DNA of the gracious mountain gorilla and a common garden mole. After the results were not what the scientists had hoped for he was flushed down the toilet and ended up in Suffolk. As a bass guitarist he is a genius and a true rock star. Recently he has learnt how to form basic sounds and vowels leading us to the belief that soon he will string an intelligent sentence together. Station is single and will be grateful for any sex that is offered to him.....
JB (aka Johnny Balls, Porn Star, The Tongue, Freakin' Odd Ball)
JB is a whirlwind on his drum kit and the main reason that we have to play loud. All post gig hearing complaints should be directed his way. JB splits his valuable time between his career in hardcore pornography and playing drums. He can regularly be seen displaying oversized tongue to ladies and trying to convince them on the merit it’s ability to pleaseFor the record John would like to categorically deny that despite appearances he is not gay.
TH (aka Trevor, Wanker)
TH is working on world domination from his underground lair in the heart of Suffolk. This is because his grasp on reality has finally slipped after one to many bottles of Dr.Pepper. This is an addiction that he has failed to overcome on more than one occasion. As the singer and front man his enthusiasm is his strong point. The least said about his singing is probably for the best. Still he plays he guitar with unerring accuracy. If he could combine this with playing the same song as the rest of the band they would have it made.
Shane (aka Captain Sensible)
In the early part of 1986 there were reports that Shane had smiled. These were discounted as vicious rumors that, to this day he is still trying to be lived down.
Shane plays the guitar like a man possessed. We have informed a priest as the green vomit is starting to have an adverse reaction during band practice. Shane started as a hard rock guru and moved via grunge over to the ways of bar chords played quickly.
Which was nice.
