Bobby Bones Is Funny and Anything But Alone on Comedy Tour
The radio personality isn’t afraid to poke fun at himself (which you’d know by listening to his radio show) while also tying in current event situations (like #Lochtegate).
Bobby Bones was anything but alone during the first of two sold out comedy shows in Franklin, TN on Friday night, but he certainly was funny. The syndicated country radio morning show host took to the Franklin Theatre stage at approximately 7:30 for an hour long set.
For those familiar with Bones’ best-selling book, Bare Bones: I’m Not Lonely If You’re Reading This Book, some of the material would seem familiar (like the Hobby Lobby Bobby story), but hearing the material live from the man himself gave the stories a whole new dimension.
It was also no surprise that his left-handed, bright red guitar also appeared on the stage as Bobby made sure to tie in the music from his comedic duo, The Raging Idiots. He performed the hilarious “If I Was Your Boyfriend,” “Netflix Love Song,” and with some help from Nikita Karmen, “We Can’t Stand Each Other,” his duet with Carrie Underwood.
At one point during the show, Bones sat down for a brief Q&A prompting several audience members to offer up their friends and family for dates with the single comedian. One person even embarrassed her friend by asking if he’d give her a hug, to which he obliged and had her brought onstage for a slow-dance and serenade to Kenny Chesney’s “Somewhere With You” by Nikita Karmen.
While many stand-up comedy shows begin with other comedians, it was no surprise that the radio host had Karmen warm up the crowd as he is her biggest cheerleader. Bones encouraged the singer to move from her home country of Australia to Nashville after seeing her sing online. The charming Aussie cooed her songs, like “Sleeping on Airplanes” (our personal favorite) and her single “Out of the Park.”
All in all, Bobby Bones Funny and Alone Tour is one we’d see time and time again. The radio personality isn’t afraid to poke fun at himself (which you’d know by listening to his radio show) while also tying in current event situations (like #Lochtegate). If you’re interested in purchasing tickets to his shows, stay tuned to his many social media channels (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram) for dates and ticket information… and move fast.
