Share the Beat, revisited
Last September, Bo performed at a benefit concert for Share the Beat, an organization devoted to promoting organ donation. It’s been a while, but VIE magazine has just come out with a nice article on the event. It’s a wonderful cause and it sounds as if the evening did it proud.
The writer was [...]

Bo Bice and Baden Guitars
Baden Guitars has added a great photo of Bo to their myspace page -
“Baden reps, kevin and josh kickin it at bo’s studio”
I wonder if Bo ever dreamed during slow afternoons spent tidying the merchandise at the Guitar Gallery that one day guitar company reps would be bringing guitars out to his studio for him [...]

This one’s for Mary
Here at BFB we don’t generally get too involved in the meaningless internet polls that are always springing up about Idol contestants. But there’s one going on right now that I just can’t resist. The Birmingham News is running a March Madness contest to pick Alabama’s Top Music Icon. The paper’s music critics put Bo [...]

Best Ever Bo
The Idol Rewind show is currently showing season 4 and we’ve been having a discussion on the forum about how Bo has changed as a performer since we first saw him on the show. For me the contrast was clearest when I watched Idol Rewind the day after seeing Bo’s Mamaroneck show. Previously, my favorite [...]

Magic in Warsaw
The people who were at the last show of Bo’s gig in Indiana two nights ago seem mainly to have been stunned into silence, other than Bikerchick who couldn’t stop talking about it when she got back. I think I can pretty much sum up her review as “Bo! … Great! … Gah! … Loved [...]

Catching up with Bo’s Midwest Shows

“I just happen to have the coolest job in the world.”
Bo Bice spoke to the Daily Herald, a suburban Chicago newspaper, and shared his thoughts about the Idol experience, his music and his life on the road.
I love being out on the road. It takes a certain breed to do it, and it takes a really screwed-up person to love to do it. Fortunately, I’m [...]

Bo Bice Gets Wordled
This is kind of cool. Wordle is a site that lets you create word clouds from any text. In a word cloud, size is used to represent the frequency of words, so the bigger the word, the more often it appears in the text. This is the word cloud for “See the Light.” Seems like [...]
