Bob Log III

High Noon Saloon
Madison, WI


Presented by Scion

BOB LOG III

Bob Log III is a One Man Band Slide Guitar Party.

Bob Log III is an American, Slide Guitar, One Man Band. During performances, he plays old silvertone archtop guitars, wears a full body cannonball man suit, and a helmet wired to a telephone which allows him to devote his hands and feet to guitar and drums. The spectacle has been described as a guitar dance party, full of sweaty smiles, jumps and kicks. Touring over 150 shows a year in more than 30 countries, Log and his guitar never, ever quit. Bob Log's version of quick Delta blues is a continuation the sound that Bob Log and Thermos pioneered in the duo, Doo Rag. The major differences are: greater emphasis on guitar showmanship, and drumming -one man band style-with his feet. It sounds like three drummers, two guitar players, and one sort of singer. Based in Tucson, Arizona, and Melbourne, Australia, he has made frequent tours of North America, Europe, Japan and Australia, Mexico, and Iceland.

The upcoming release of his long awaited new album, MY SHIT IS PERFECT, begins the onset of another slew of adventures. Geography be damned, Bob Log III intends to take these songs and his unique slide guitar party to the good people of the world. There is no town too remote, there never has been.

ROBOMAN

What started as a joke, has turned into an even bigger joke. Behold! The ROBOMAN!! See!!! The feet of fury and lightning hands of one drunken slob. Hear!! The amazing surf instrumentals and crazy garage beat! You'll swear its a whole band! But don't take our word for it. Here's what other people have said: " Um, that was, um..interesting." ..." The drums were'nt loud enough."..."Wow! That was just you?"..." You need to sing into the mic."..." How the fuck are you playing guitar and bass at the same time!? And drums?! and sing?"..." That was cool! Would you play my party?"..." Eat a dick Oman!" Here's what local press have said, " Roboman's ridiculous one-man-act proves that guitar, bass and drums can be played simultaneously by one person, if for no other reason than someone had to do it and prove it."--77 Square..." a harshly entertaining, bare-bones, garage-surf sound."--The Isthmus

THE PORK TORTA

Pork Torta is hot and greasy desert rock, simultaneously intense and whimsical. Their sound is thick with greasy grooves and fat, thundering bass.
