    Ubangi Stomp Club presents Bob Log 111
    Bob Log 111 is an American slide guitar one man band. Born in Chicago but based in Arizona, Bob plays old Silvertone archtop guitars, wears a full body human cannonball suit, and a motorcycle helmet wired to a telephone receiver. Witnessing Bob Log live is an unmissable and unforgettable experience.
    By rights he should be a punk blues stadium super star. He takes to the stage with his face masked in a crash helmet with a black visor and a telephone wired in it for a mic and wearing a blue jump suit. Bob then unleashes a torrent of hardcore Mississippi Delta blues and punk rock. The crash helmet telephone distorts the vocals and his hands, arms, legs and feet become a blur of jump suit clad limbs as he plays slide, triggers drum machines and drums with his feet simultaneously.
    Growing up, Bob listened to artists such as AC/DC, Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley,Hasil Adkins and Screaming Jay Hawkins, later commenting that “ that's what rock n' roll is to me. You take a guitar, turn it up and have a good time”.
    Join Ubangi Stomp Club on Sat 29th Nov at the Grand Social to witness Bob Log 11, the blues punk primitive with his inimitable version of audience participation.
    Support from Dublin favourites Female Hercules
    Presented in association with Dublin City FM.
    Tickets 15 euro from tickets.ie.
