[Jaketacular420]

I just found out about bordello searching up shows in utah this year. I saw that Primus and him are playing in SLC so i looked him up and HOLY SHIT! hahaha what a pleasent surprise, I cant wait til then im definately going to that show

[CoolKodiak]

Les is my god.

I believe in Primus.

Amen.

[PotatoManTada]

If you go to Gogol Bordello's website, you can see that Hutz recomends Tom Waits and Nick Cave as some of his favorite music.

[PotatoManTada]

Could you imagine.... Les Claypool, Gogol Bordello, Tom Waits, and Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds altogether!!!!!!

If they were alive, you could add William S. Burroughs, and Warren Zevon to make the most amazing superband-thing ever. One must dream.

[colymor]

Now.., what is Eugene wearing as a tie ?....he looks like a shaman eastern orthodox archbishop from texas

[Illmatic973]

Saw Les in Vermont last night and Eugene came out and did the gypsy waltz with him, it was awesome!

[AceGT09]

gogol and les jamming tom waits tunes, it's like te music fairies finally listened to me!

[daddygreenjeens]

LOL! I agree!

[jabberbandit]

Absolutely amazing. Just in case some don't know, Claypool and Boredello just collaborated again on his new album "Of Fungi and Foe"...fucking amazing song! Check it out.

[BIGCJMCNASTY]

[hutzovania]

Primus + Gogol Bordello = Awesome!

[bornarebelstay1]

eugene hutz wasn't in Wristcutters.

there was just a character BASED on him

[Flushtown22]

The acted together in Wristcutters

and Claypool and Waits did work together (i.e. Tommy The Cat)

[BountyHunter233]

tom waits is in loads of les claypools music if you listen carefully

[wackyruss]

claytonofun26 posted a reply to my video. I accidently deleted it! Anyway, I copied and posted it from my e-mail.

claytonofun26 has made a comment on Les Claypool with Gogol Bordello SUPERJAM part 1:

eugene hutz of gogol bordello is an actor as well and he and tom waits were in the movie "wristcutters" together.

MY RESPONSE:

Thank you for explaining the connection! Wristcutters is number two on my NetFlix queue! I cannot wait to see it now!

[erasermcfleafly]

euene hutz was not in wristcutters, his music was. a guy named shea whigham played the character eugene.

[brandojitsu123]

@wackyruss not to be a stickler but it isn't actually eugene in wrist cutters, just a character based on him. 

[hazelmere1]

@wackyruss

I love that movie but Eugene is not in it. That character is based on him and named Eugene. And Tom Waits is incredible in the movie. Will Arnett is excellent also.

[oggendoggen2]

WOW...

Why did they do this? Don't get me wrong, this was BRILLIANT of them to play Waits songs, they're probably the only one who could cover them well, but what connection to Waits does Gogol have?

[wackyruss]

Well, not sure about a connection between Waits and Gogol, but Les Claypool has collaborated with Waits several times. Tom Waits is the voice of Tommy the Cat in the song of the same name by Les Claypool's most famous band, Primus. Waits also collaborated again on the Primus song Coattails of a Deadman from the album Antipop. Les has also played bass on several songs on Tom Waits albums.

[wiggitywaKa]

@wackyruss i'm not sure i think les is the voice dude.

[anfallo]

@oggendoggen2 Tom Waits acted in Wristcutters: A Love Story which has was heavily inspired by Gogol Bordello... but seriously there isn't actually such a strong connection. Except for all the Tom Waits songs that have European folk influences. Please watch [youtube]/watch?v=qVaEPx_VyXs to the end and you'll be surprised by the scope of his abilities as an arranger.

[audiorage25]

hell yeah!! i wanted this to happen for so long! there is a god!

[yaycelesteyay]

WOOOO

two of my favorite artists!

[modestomouso1234]

yes, claypool DOES have manners. at b-roo in '04, primus was supposed to come on about 2AM, but didn't hit the stage until about 4. claypool walks out and explains, 'sorry we were so late, ladies and gentelmen. i was on mushrooms and watching the grateful dead and completely lost track of the time', or something along those lines. he then proceeded to play 'jerry was a race car driver' and all was forgiven.

B-ROO! sorry i missed you this year!

[Fodrox04]

The gypsi punk revolution has begun!

[bloodylover101]

i cant BELIEVE i missed this!!!! what the hell was i doing????most likely running around shakedown but that sucks i didnt even hear about this!!!

[fettesbrotliebtmich]

I think I just orgasmed on my computer.

If they had thrown Skerik into that mix, I don't think my genitals could have taken it.

[seapadbre]

For me it doesn't get much better than this, two of my favorite musician doing a set of my favorite musician ever, Tom Waits

[azreal420666]

i was walking around witha head full of acid at bonaroo and came upon them playing in this tent. fucking awesome. they played some ukrainian anthem at the end anybody know what it was????

[wackyruss]

I'm not sure. I remember it too- vaguely. I was about to collapse after waiting about an hour for Metallica and then cutting through the crowd to get up front for this show!

Darn my camera battery for DYING!!!! I got quite a bit of this show but would have loved to have gotten ALL of it...

::sigh::

[seapadbre]

That's actually another Tom Waits song, it's called Russian Dance, it's on the cd The Black Rider

[azreal420666]

aww thank you so much my life is complete now

[bellevegasj]

claypool sucks.

[wackyruss]

Hell yeah. He sucks even more than PRIMUS!

[jimmyatebillonce]

hahahh you look like the gaff who plays de anza jig and seas of cheese on here.

[jomacheret]

kanye sux!

haha there were signs all over

[Elajud]

this jam was a life changing experience for me. once in a fucking lifetime.

kanye sucks

bonnaroo 08

[MusicandBeer]

Les Claypool is a wizard and Gogol Bordello are are a blast! I had so much fun at this show and Gogols on saturday , Bonnarooooo !!!

[Kmfish1]

FUCK KANYE!!!!

what a bastardo.

anywho. i missed the superjam which i am now very disappointed about, les is the shit. his set was fucking great. and i caught some of gogol earlier before ben folds. i hadnt heard them before but i was really impressed. hoo-ray for roo-08!!

[b1lahb1ah]

it would have been better if you hadnt offended my eyes with your ginger face

[aid4design]

Most definitely Fuck-a-Kanye. He isn't even close to as talented as these boys! Thank you Russ.

[wackyruss]

Hell yeah! Fuck-a-Kanye!

Les Claypool is a true musician and has manners!

[tremans]

There's a contrast of two artists. The first thing Claypool does is acknowledge and apologize for their tardiness- and even offered an explanation. Unlike Kanye who didn't even say one word about his late start.
