Did you know that one of the early players of Crosby's Bobcats lives here in St. Petersburg,Fl.and is still playing every Wed. @ The Bilmar Resort on Treasure Island,Fl.

listening, Ed Metz and the current Bob Cats do one hell of a job with the
Bob Cat repertoire and the same instrumentation. Metz does, however, redo
the arrangements, updating them and allowing more solo space. In effect his
band does indeed bring something "NEW" to the party, yet will be recognized
by Bob Cat fans as playing in their style.

Superb 8 piece band. But don't plead budget and try to cut it back to 6
because then you don't have the Bob Cats anymore do you?

Cheers,
Steve Barbone
