The Urban Nomad film festival is once again on in Taipei and they kicked things off with a party on April 25th. With some short films to start, the highlight of the night was a performance by one man band Bob Log III, playing his version of delta blues. More after the jump.
Tomorrow, being the end of the month, will see the new desktop calendar download posted. Don’t forget to check in then to get your May photo calendar.
Kicking things off, Taiwanese band My Skin Against Your Skin. Foremerly known as Rabbit is Rich, they got the crowd up and dancing.
Up next was the dirty rock and roll of the Deadly Vibes. These guys always put on a great show and tonight was no exception.
Burlesque comedy group Rock In Hose jumped up on stage after the Deadly Vibes. With a short performance before the main show, they had the crowd alternately cheering and laughing.
As mentioned above, Bob Log III was the main act. With his distinct style including a golden body suit, motorcycle helmet and telephone mic, silvertone archtop guitar and drums at his feet, he came on to a very appreciative crowd. With songs such as “Boob Scotch”, and crowd surfing in a blow-up lifeboat, his set went over a treat.
Finally, the Moneyshot Horns took the stage with their jazzy sounds that kept the remaining revelers dancing.
Don’t forget to check back tomorrow for the free desktop calendar for May. Thanks.
