List to Mr. Bungle selftitled, if u are not familiar with it, deranged clowns on acid with incredibly difficult and technical music and the singer is very popular in a number of different projects
@@dantoth3199has Les done any work with Patton? I know they’ve toured together. Crack Hitler sounds just like a Primus song so there’s no way they haven’t jammed out multiple times
@@doomstarks182 idk but it would be cool to know. I also would assume that they have crossed paths many times. Would love to know his thoughts on Patton. Just like I would love to know Elfmans thoughts on the Chocolate factory redo.
I met les Claypool at an insane clown posse show in Tampa years ago, he gave me a flyer for one of his upcoming events. Janus landing......totally in disguise. Wild hair, cowboy hat, looking like a hobo, but when I called him out, he turned and smiled at me, then disappeared into the crowd! TRUE STORY!!
he plays a claypool fretless bass. I have seen him in concert playing a few. I wonder why none of the pictures showed any though Dudes a goat. He auditioned for Metallica but they felt he was too good.
Ole Les is a well seasoned man who cannot be counterfeited. A man who only gets better with age, like some of the finest bourbon from the Appalachia mountains, that warms your heart and leaves you feeling all fuzzy inside. Here’s to you Mr. Claypool.🥃🫡
Thank metallic for making two other bands if you think about it they almost had les Claypool &the kicked dave out So again thank you for not taking them metallic we appreciate it 😅
@@wtburns01Why does EVERYONE say John Entwistle? The dude played for The Who. They aren't exactly virtuoso players, except Keith Moon obviously. He's just so goddamned average at bass, & everyone ALWAYS says his name when naming their favorites. He is just a standard, sub par bassist. He could NEVER play like Les does, not if his life depended on it.
I've seen Primus so many times I go every time they are near me and every single show all I can do is watch this man's hands, he is an absolute musical genius! Primus sucks! Much love from the Adirondack Mountains
In pictures: Stoner Rock Les, Bob Marley Les, TOOL Les, Nirvana Les, Radiohead Les, Alice in Chains Les, Jazzy Les, Green Day Les, Red Hot Chilli Peppers Les, Crouching Les, Nickelback Les, ELO Les, ZZ Top Les, Limp Bizkit Les, Nick Cave Les, Invisible Les, and my personal favorite: Motorhead Les.
@@casanovafrankenstein8538 Primus quite literally cover Rush as a joke when they're just messing around before they get serious to play their own shit. Geddy's bass playing is like child's play to Les. You really think Geddy Lee could play Tommy the Cat?
If u grew up in that time and somehow didn't listen to primus u missed some iconic music and not only the music but the awesome entertaining MTV music videos at 5 in the morning 😂
One of my favorite Primus concert was New Year’s Eve 1995/96 at the Oakland coliseum. It was supposed to be Primus, Tool, and Alice In Chains. Unfortunately Layne entered drug rehab and they had some other band fill in. Les was unbelievable.
Watched LC & FFFB at a small outdoor venue in Houston Had no expectations. They blew me away. Especially when warm up band played Thella Hun Geet Jeet... Adrian
I saw primus in 1996, right after that i found out i was pregnant with son my babies have gone to some of the best concerts while i was pregnant except my youngest but his taste in music is like mine i guess i filled my uterus up with enough good music.
Primus is one of a kind, no one even tried to reach to that imaginary bar that they could only reach. I loathed them until I loved them. It didn’t take long
just met him in st paul on the 3rd after the frog brigade show!! he was super tired but still told the hotel staff to let us get pictures real quick, he seemed super nice
years ago before Primus really grew in popularity. I had the pleasure of eating dinner with Primus, they arrived a little late for the show. I helped carry in their equipment. And Les asked me if i wanted to sit down and have some pizza with them... Of course i did.. we made small talk while eating. They are very down to earth. and if you didnt know them. You'd think they are just regular every day people... I was new to their beats and at the time i only really liked two of their songs. they played a great show. this was back in 1988-1989 at the Cattle Club in Sacramento.
I was at a Record store today and I showed someone the Les Claypol and the John Lennon Delirium record and they bought it. I have all of his works, Frog Brigade, Primus, Oysterhead, Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains
He is unreal! The skill he has on bass is just amazing! He is a front man and plays all the rythm of the song on bass which is unmatched by anyone on the planet. Plus sing! The only other that comes to mind that might come. Lose to his skill is Tom Araya from Slayer.
