The story of Log Hog is actually the story of lost baggage at Heathrow Airport. It all started with the Big Bang. Then, 10 to 20 billion years later, Sloe T (real name: Bubba Z) and Nervous (real name: Sloe T -- if Sloe T can be nervous, then Nervous can be Sloe T), found themselves in a studio in Ellensburg, making music. It was 1994. It was the time of Roland samplers. Cross-overs. Fred Astaire. A band called Log Hog, named after a hat.
Or named after a film? During a bizarre moment in which space and time twist and turn upon themselves, they briefly are known as Natural Born Bankers, and live in Olympia. Until Sloe T wakes up and finds himself in Ellensburg again, not knowing the "-burg" suffix is a typically Dutch one.
What, in a line-up consisting of Sloe T and Nervous, is a suitable addition? Someone with the name Seed Verb of course, and so he joins. With Nervous being forced to flee Olympia after what the police described as an "awful, inhuman scene", they record a record, recorded in recorded history as "Beat Soup".
Members come and go. Crow, Fernando DC, Inasense, John Bobbit's. One thing remains: the recording studio where "Beat Soup", the record, not the actual soup, was recorded: The Ice Cream Room. Everyone is cool in The Ice Cream Room, but not as cool as Log Hog.
"Here We Come", announces their second CD, being only the second one after the first. In desperation, and with the fear of losing count of it all, Log Hog kidnaps outlaw Blandow C (real name withheld), and start to work with him. The band is complete, after its members already were complete idiots.
Their third record is called "Press The Letters", followed by the "Stuffing the Bald Caps" series, and "Kidding on the Square," a mix of old and new "stuff" (record industry slang for "tracks"). In-between all that, the members, like Santa's helpers in Spring, all do solo work.
And like the seven dwarves, they mine their gold and bring it to the people, waiting for Snow White to appear.
