Review: Bob Schneider at Knuckleheads

Bob Schneider couldn't get the line about Kansas City's "crazy little women" out of his head Tuesday. He made several references to the Leiber and Stoller song during his performance at Knuckleheads. Who could blame him?

The vast majority of the 200 people on hand were women. And a lot of them were, in fact, acting a little crazy. A handful of songs like "2002" aside, I could take or leave most of his stuff. Even my date, a woman compelled by the breathless ravings of her friends to attend, wondered what all the fuss was about.

"Bob Schneider is OK," she suggested, "But I'd rather see Howard Iceberg."

I agree.
