Shortly after puberty, Stark made "a Freudian grip" and grabbed hold of brother Doug's $10.00 Simpsons-Sears Silvertone guitar...and then came the Beatles, the Byrds, the Lovin' Spoonful, and the Buffalo Springfield. Bob's first on-stage performance was "some time in the sixties, man" at an ' open-stage ' at The Wasteland Coffee House, Ottawa, ON . His most recent performances have been: Rasputin's Café, Ottawa, ON, September 2005; the Vancouver East Cultural Centre, Vancouver, BC, 3 February, 2006 (CD Release Party for 'Life on a Postcard'.) In between, Bob has played at various benefits, festivals and folk venues - from The Foc'sle Tavern, Chester, NS ( to officially launch The Lobster Party) to the stage of the National Arts Centre. "Heck, I've even played at the opening of a general store, standing behind a canoe." Stark currently resides in Vancouver, BC, cheering on the Canucks while drinking lattes and listening to the falling rain.
