Les Claypool and His Fancy Band 2007-07-14 All Good Music Festival - Masontown, WV (pro-shot) 

I miss this so much. The Fancy Band was something else, probably why Les says here it was his favorite band to play with. Probably not the most profitable of his music endeavors, but definitely the most next-level.

I've listened to a lot of great bands in my 60 years and no one has done more in music than Les Claypool. The man has had so many different bands and he has redefined music and bass playing....in my opinion he is the all time best at music of a different genre. No one will ever be better!!!!!

Gabby La La is not just some weird novelty artist, any more than Les is. She's the real thing, with respectable musicianship on several instruments.

Why is it that everything Les does is my favourite thing ever? Es scheint meine Gestalt zu sein

I was at this show and its forever one of my favorite live sets of all time.

Wow!! Who would think to combine those instruments to make this kind of music. Incredibly artistic. Someone may not like or understand the style but the talent cannot be denied for all of the musians here. Les never disappoints.

I came to this video by accident and listened to the album a few hours before in my car. This is great.

I had the pleasure of doing sound for the Xylophone player's band the other night. Mike Dillon and Punkadelic and it was awesome. Cool dude and every bit as eclectic as Les which I realize is a really high bar. I knew that he did this stuff with Les, so I kinda knew what to expect and I knew it was going to be great, but it still surprised me. Let's be honest, in order to have your mind blown with music, you must first be suprised and then it has to be awesome on top of the suprise. It was awesome. I had a great time. I also got the chance to see Primus at All Good one year and I believe that Brain was playing with them for that show, which I always loved his drumming. Some people hate on him but I never really understood that. It's been a long long time since I've been to All Good (Or anything else that size TBH), but I really loved that festival before it got just a little too big, like all the great festivals.

Imagine being that drummer......all that crazy malarkey..... The whole time.... What a beast.... Sour note solos and all... Great musician...

This unexpected fun and most excellent! I love the Sax! 💥🎷🎸🎧🔥🎵🎶🌀🎷 FUNK,!

I just stumbled across this show, thanks to whoever posted it.i in find it increasingly difficult to hear something new and good these days.props to Mr claypool him and Eddy vedder are like the only ones I grew up with still alive.and they both have stayed true to themselves and their fans may they be keep performing until we all share the same retirement home and oxygen machines😁

Pure genius!!!!

First time I heard of Primus was in Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey at the battle of the bands at the end. 😎I was 12. Now 42 and nobody's blown me away like Les since. Everything he does is amazing I truly dig it all. Gonna catch Primus covering Rush songs this year!

Claypool the God of lead bass guitar!

Extraordinary! I love this music.

Some where in that crowd, are my parents

so great! This is next level stuff, thanks Les!

I was there ! Awesome show! Definitely one of the main reasons I made the pilgrimage from S.C. that year! Man ,what memories! Thanks so much!

I can tell Les Claypool was a huge Frank Zappa fan

I was there!

I remember this ! I was there. This was a great show for 2007 ....one of best!

Such an Amazing combo was this~!!!

I gotta say it , Dueling , Sitar , Bass , I LOVE it , ...

Les ❤️💯 is So More. All my love and respect 🫡 to Fancy fans

The Fancy Band. Les Claypool's vessel for playing his Of Whales and Of Fungi albums. Basically a stripped down Frog Brigade.

Skerik and Les is always a good time.

I saw this tour at the Cain's in Tulsa at the time, which is an incredible venue and it was one of the absolute best shows I've ever seen in my entire life.

Primus probably the most underrated band ever

This is grooving!

Man.. I'd love a bass like that!

14:01 Les is so good that the bass plays itself!

Funktastic!

Les is by far the progenitor, but a Ler/Skerik collab would be nuts

CLAYPOOL -SUPER!

Les claypool para presidente de México! 😎👍

Les and Bucket head friggin ruled

very very well..........................................................................

Who would have guessed it would have ended like this I hope you somehow know how much you were missed. That you guys things aren't quite the same but we appreciate our time together and we're glad that you came. I hope you found the peace that you couldn't quite find in this life. I hope you're with the Lord in his eternal light

I don't always listen to funky rock sung by a cartoon character in a top hat but when I do, I make sure there's a man in a pink wig playing a sitar involved

Les Claypool is a God

R.I.P. Kurt Cobain, Bradley Nowell, Dimebag Darrell, Scott Weiland, Chris Cornell Tom Petty and anybody I might have missed you all are gone but not forgotten.thanks for making this world a little less rotten.Who

I kind of feel sorry for those who haven't seen and heard this.

Anyone going to see Primus this year

If I was a crazy billionaire I would hire this band to play my birthday party

Time not matter , only Life Matter , so , begin , your , time , LIFE will follow , tree of Hollow , so , that Story ,might Shine , ...

I feel privilaged to be lucky enough that Rush exists and I dont know there will ever be another Rush. The musicianship is so tight and honest. They wouldnt have it any other way.

A Theremin Nice

Sounds like the love child of Frank Zappa and Parliament-Funkadelic.very cool

Shepherd's Chapel Network !!!!!!! Pastor Murray is an Anointed Servant of GOD who teaches the Word of GOD with Authority!!!!!!!

I was there.

I was looking for Tim Dillon stuff and found myself here.

I was there! I think!?❄️🌍❄️

The chick backstage is like, the brown acid is fine, I'm good! 😂🤯🖤

How raw was all good back in the day? This was a day show. Tickets were like $150. As long as you didn't get arrested by the 10,000 cops outside the venue.

Wow Hall...fuck yeah!

LOL! Skerik looks exactly like Robert Pattinson on this video! (The Sax guy)

Up on the Roof is better than album version 100%

There's another tease in RotD...Glide again maybe?

Fancy Skerik!🍄

Does anyone remember the people in big headed monster costumes that were walking around during this set? 🤣🤣🤣 I was dying laughing.

This year

Zappa !

How do you guys get such a great sound from a live performance and yet still compressed do you display on RU-vid.?

Drummer sounds like old Honky Tonk Herb!

😁😁😁

21:29

Thumbs up the bass solo at 30:02

I was so sad when no one would sing the pirate chant with the band

I wasn't there

Save , this , for , me , Later , ...

generation x, xylophone

... Why not?!

How old is Gabby? Maybe 10? What a talent!!

What effect is he using @ 12:21?

61

Zappa territory

He would have solved out the Chastain in minutes.

Frank meinte ich

anyone know what effect Les is using here? 17:03

38:46

Enthusiastic? They didn't even sing along to the damn pirate chant!

30:35 best bass solo from les i've seen

As much as I loved the early stuff, I have a hard time liking this after greats like pork soda and the Brown album or even tales from the punch bowl.

Gabby sure trashed Precipitation. That was painful to listen to.

Les Claypool's musical trajectory is one of the saddest I've ever seen.

are we still pretending claypool can sing?
