The Adventures of Bob the Dog - End of a career?

The beginning of  Bob the Dog's adventures can be found here.
 
I just finished reading an interview with Bob in City Dog/Country Dog magazine. He says he is over his disappointment that his first CD, "Blue Lonesome" was a colossal failure. Evidently Bob and his band, the Back Yard Howlers, are one hit wonders. He received the Country Dog Association Newcomer of the Year Silver Dish award for "I'm so lonesome I could Howl: - his single - but other songs like "I'm panting for you baby" and "Howling at the streetlight" are not to the public's liking. Bob said and that his best yodeling was yet to come, so he was not discouraged and he and the band were headed out for a big national tour and expected sell-out crowds.

Unfortunately, the word is that things are not going well on Bob's first (and perhaps final) big tour. He and his band, started out well - I hear Nutbush Tennessee sold out in in less than 6 hours – but other venues have not been so kind. Ticket sales are slow and crowds are sparse. It may have something to do with the fact that Bob failed to show up for a couple of concerts and has "behaved erratically" when he does make it on stage . The tour sponsor, Bugle Boy Dog Food, is reported ready to pull the plug.

But, true to his word, I received a money order today that paid off Bob’s “tab” – including the cost of the IDA counseling and the vet bill. He enclosed a note that said he had me to thank for getting him started on his career in the music business.

Not so sure about the career, but thanks for the money, Bob.

...to be continued. Maybe.
