Bob Log III 2003-03-15: Bob Log III - Live Show Reviews I saw Bob Log III at the Parish (Upstairs offshoot of the House of Blues). While I watched his sound check I was skeptical. Three crappy Peavey amps mic'ed into the PA. A grungy old acoustic electric guitar. A bass drum with a tamborine in the hole, and a footpedal hooked up to a china crash cymbal. I had no idea what this guy was thinking. Then he disappeared backstage and reemerged wearing a motorcycle helmet and jumpsuit. Embedded in the faceplate of the helmet was a telephone receiver. He sat on the chair, beat the drum and china crash, and proceeded to play insanely distorted slide guitar. His musical style reminded me slightly of Beck, but was much much heavier and chaotic. In addition, his vocals were so distorted by the phone as to be indecipherable, becoming more of an instrument than a voice. In between songs he was quite funny, and he had to tune his guitar frequently due to the abuse he piled onto it during songs. Whenever he would get a string in tune he'd throw in a quip such as "Now stay put!" or "Dat's where you belong!" The highlight of the night was definitely the song "Boob Scotch". It was a song about women dipping their boobs into his glass of scotch. He asked for audience participation, but unfortunately no one was willing. Everyone at the show was a local of the Decatur Street variety, and boob dipping is primarily a Bourbon Street tourist phenomenon. Overall I really enjoyed his performance. I give it a 8 out of 10. My only regret was not purchasing a "Boob Scotch" T-Shirt. Update: Donald Bonck has provided a link where you can view the Boob Scotch video and purchase Bob Log stuff. Permalink to this post.
