Doing Hava Nagila with Peter Himmelman and Harry Dean Stanton for a Chabad Lubavitch telethon in the '80s:


Here's Bob doing Jokerman on Letterman with L.A. punks The Plugz backing him:

Starring in a Cadillac Escalade commercial, for some reason. Listening to my favorite Smog song, for some reason:
