Bob Log III
The Famous Speigeltent, Sat 25 Feb


"I'm playing drums with my feet and playing guitar with my hands!"

The man from Tucson, Arizona came out in a black cowboy outfit with the sparkly silver helmet, playing his guitar as he walked a lap of the tent then up onto the stage to plug his mic cable to the helmet and addressed the audience, who he would call 'Shirley' as he doesn't like the word 'audience'. For Wiggly Room Melbourne's The Town Bikes joined him onstage for some dancing and beer-drinking. As he retunes his guitar and asks for the lights to go way down, so he can get "intimate" with the crowd, you notice that his suit is now glowing and flashing. "Goddammit I feel good, but I can't find my beer, 'cause I can't see it!" A punter helps him out. He takes a swig, through the helmet, then he kicks into "The fastest motherfucking song in the world!" He insists he's only swearing 'cause he's telling the truth. It's unbelievably fast. "Damn I'm good. Did I do that?"

The Town Bikes join him onstage again for a song about boobies and their dancing featured a lot of windmills and hip thrusting. Later in the set he kicks into another song about boobies; but about boobies gone bad: The Booby Trap. The crowd know this one, some people are now dancing. The Town Bikes return for Boob Scotch, another crowd favourite, this time in red and yellow tiger print dresses (very 80s) and champagne. Let your imagination run wild as to what the dancing was like. The song ends with the 'Bikes attacking Bob with their boobs. So there actually is a reason for the helmet: protection!
