Bob Log III at Snug Harbor

The brave ladies that sat on Bob Log's lap

So this post is about a month over due since it happened on May 5th. But whatever, I've been busy maintaining my perfect GPA and killin' it in grad skewl, so I think that's a pretty legit excuse. 

Bob Log III is super slick, and I was very surprised by the delivery of this one-man-band show and his showmanship! So, he wears a motorcycle helmet with an old phone receiver hooked up to it for aesthetics and fingerpicks the hell out of his guitars, and his feet play with some pedals. The crowd was loving the performance, but it felt like they were a little wary of participating on stage. At least in the beginning. After people boozed up some more the time was ripe to have some ladies join Bob Log's knees, as can be seen in the photo. I think it's kind of good that it came out a bit blurry and the ladies' faces are not easily distinguishable, because really... I wouldn't want a well-defined picture of me doing that on the internets. But then again, maybe they're those kinds of people. After all, they went up there willingly! I sound like I'm judging but I'm not. Bob Log played well into the night/morning, and kept on even as the majority (and by that I mean probably 4/5) of the crowd left.

Mr. Free and The Satellite Freakout put on a kind of interactive show, with the frontman's vanishing act of disappearing from the stage, and even the room. At other times he would gyrate on unsuspecting and suspecting people in the crowd. The music was good, the vocals were spastic yet melodic. I chatted with the frontman (Demitri was his name? [all-American, not non-American]) who was very nice and linked me to where I could hear more of their music which I have been enjoying since. Apparently them and Bob Log are from the same hometown and have been traveling across America together for this tour. This was something like the 60th show together, and among one of the final few. Nice.

Hear music here: Bob Log III, Mr. Free and The Satellite Freakout and Kill Your Mules (which were playing when I arrived, so I don't have anything to say about them; MY BAD!)
