Event
Bob Log III at the 'Dad Lounge
BOB LOG III
https://www.boblog111.com
Bob Log III is a one man band slide guitar party. A perverse product of the
Arizona desert, Bob Log III has been diligently travelling the globe since 1996,
showcasing his incomparable talents and developing a devoted following along the
way. A whirlwind of dexterous limbs and digits, this super star sonic showman has
to be seen to be believed.
Clad in his cannonball man, extra tight jumpsuit and signature motorcycle helmet
with telephone/microphone attached, Bob Log III unfailingly sweats up a river
while kicking on a kick drum, stomping his homemade foot cymbal and playing
slide on an old archtop guitar. His endless pursuit for musical mayhem and a
downright party has seen his unique talents utilized for childrens birthday parties,
obscure beer barns, mammoth music festivals and everything in between.
Yet, beyond these mesmerizing visuals, lies the true reason for Bob Logs
international cult status and superhero adoration. It is quite simply the guitar
playing - finger picked lightning, sliding up and down, stopping when it wants to,
then starting again when it feels like it, all in a way that makes people move
uncontrollably, smile and reel.

QUOTES AND TESTIMONIALS
And now lets hear some actual words from notable people who know and love, or
at least know Bob Log III
TOM WAITS "And then theres this guy named Bob Log, you ever heard of him?
Hes this little kid nobody even knows how old he is wears a motorcycle
helmet and he has a microphone inside of it and he puts the glass over the front so
you cant see his face, and plays slide guitar. Its just the loudest strangest stuff
youve ever heard. You dont understand one word hes saying. I like people who
glue macaroni on to a piece of cardboard and paint it gold. Thats what I aspire to
basically.
MILTON BERLE Hey kid. DO what thou wilt.
ROBERT PLANT Dear Bob, its been ages since Sweden.
POISON IVY (The Cramps) If you do that again, we are kicking you off the
tour.
HASIL ADKINS Woooo! Can I have your autograph?
R.L. BURNSIDE Sideshow, you hanging in there like a dirty shirt. I want you
playing with me tomorrow, and the day after that, and the day after that.
PEACHES I am NOT from Miami, asshole.
FRANZ FERDINAND (Nick) Can I ride in your car?
BLOWFLY Bob Log, you play guitar by yourself, you play drums by yourself,
you drive yourself, but I bet you need help to masturbate.
GARY NUMAN Hello

SHARON JONES Bob Log, you can use my dressing room. Waitlet me get
you a towel.
SHONEN KNIFE Can we sit your knee?

Swedish accent)
T-MODEL FORD Try playing THAT, mutha fucker! HEY! You sat on my

RUMORS
Yes, we have all heard the rumors:
He has a monkey paw instead of a hand
Girls like to sit on his knees and bounce while he plays
Occasionally, various people from the crowd jump onstage and put their boob in
his drink
He rides in an inflatable dinghy over an ocean of fans
These whispers are all best explained in the following article, which has been
translated from its original publication in French, using the Transitron Whizgig
4000-
Msr. Bob Log appears, and so joy! It is of many nights and one thousand ladies,
the guitar defeats us to dance. On the top, a crown. Never has this in time! Maybe
not future. Only the now, her glowing hand, can be seen. Thunder of foot escapes
the stage, chasing wild tempo with sound animal. We, the entourage, are not free.
Arrested! But not of shame. Many times more we ask it. Encore, Captain. Encore!
And so you see, it is all true. All Bob Log asks is that you do the mathand if you
do it (correctly), you will find that (with the single exception of Hasil Adkins) Bob
Log has out-guitared, out-drummed, out-sweated, out-driven, out-boated, out-bounced, out-custom-agented and out-inspired all other one-man bands. Numbers
never lie. Bob Log III. MY SHIT IS PERFECT.
