ESI Events presents Bob Log III live in the 9th Ward!

When it comes to black visor crash helmet equipped with a telephone wired in it for a mic, Evil Knievel-style spandex cannonball suit-wearing one-man band playing the blues, Bob Log III is the best in America. First gaining notoriety in the mid-90’s playing with lo-fi blues duo Doo Rag, Log continues to play his skewed, crispy-fried version of the blues on his own. Log’s blown-out vocals and filthy slide guitar playing scream “juke joint you might get stabbed in,” while his goofy personality suggests “hey, this show might sound better from the Chuck E. Cheese ball pit.” And his enthusiasm, showmanship, and just plain out of control presence make for a joyful (if not slightly twisted) down home experience. Log is an all-time American weirdo who brings his unforgettable live performance to The Ninth Ward on Monday, August 18.
