This Saturday Night at Johnny Brenda's in Philly: Mondo Topless opens up a really cool show featuring Bob Log III and Molly Gene One Whoamannn Band!
Doors: 8:00, Mondo Topless goes on at 9:30 SHARP!
Bob Log III - Set Time: 11:30 PM
Bob Log III is an American, Slide Guitar, One Man Band. During performances, he plays old silvertone archtop guitars, wears a full body cannonball man suit, and a helmet wired to a telephone which allows him to devote his hands and feet to guitar and drums. The spectacle has been described as a guitar dance party, full of sweaty smiles, jumps and kicks. Touring over 150 shows a year in more than 30 countries, Log and his guitar never, ever quit. Bob Log's version of quick Delta blues is a continuation the sound that Bob Log and Thermos pioneered in the duo, Doo Rag. The major differences are: greater emphasis on guitar showmanship, and drumming -one man band style-with his feet. It sounds like three drummers, two guitar players, and one sort of singer. Based in Tucson, Arizona, and Melbourne, Australia, he has made frequent tours of North America, Europe, Japan and Australia, Mexico, and Iceland.
His latest release, MY SHIT IS PERFECT, begins the onset of another slew of adventures. Geography be damned, Bob Log III intends to take these songs and his unique slide guitar party to the good people of the world. There is no town too remote, there never has been.
Molly Gene One Whoaman Band - (Set time: 10:30 PM)
Molly Gene is a one woman band. She plays guitar, harmonica, and a foot drum at the same time. She was born and raised just outside of a little town called Warrensburg in Missouri. Some of her influences are Fred McDowell, Son House, The Rolling Stones, Bob Log III, Hank Williams III and much more.
