PRIMUS - backstage interview (1998) [01]

[MrBellender]

Erzahl uns ne Ceschitche, Onkel Larry!

[rvistaworkbench]

HR - Human Rights is a good hc/punk reggae album by voc of bad rbains,you know?

[paisteuser06]

jesus christ this is almost 12 years old

[ricardinhomascaro]

His original hair is curly?? Or is this is a perm microphone hairstyle??

[harry61991]

bob ross claypool.



[mf2ltl2l8bck]

OMG! I don't remember the porn stash and fro!

[ricardinhomascaro]

WTF???Les makes smoothing on his hair???

[Bo0meRs1]

Tom Waits is the shit!

[ShreddGamer14]

les looks cooler than ever in this video!

[YaWantTaters]

Les having his hair like that makes him look like Dennis(Mister Body) from WonderShowzen!

"...who the hell's this guy they call Bob Cock?" - Les Claypool(ad lib in Primus's Pink Floyd cover of 'Have A Cigar').

[707HAMMERHEAD707]

primus sucks

[billgeezeriommi]

larry lalonde from possessed thats insane man

[23cornchip]

Y not show the video?!?

[Scrawnzz]

PRIMUS SUCKS!!!

[thefinkiewicz]

i hate brian, shit drummer and total dumbass. love primus though. love them enough to know les has come out and said hes sick of the primus sucks chant

[Misteryowl]

@thefinkiewicz

Shit drummer? What in the name of goodness are you fucking talking about?

[thefinkiewicz]

@Misteryowl i mean hes above par in terms of rock drummers but id take jay lane or tim alexander over him any day. i mean look at jazz, afro-cuban, funk, classic rock and the talent through out those styles (cuz i dont wanna make an intense list) and hes nothing. he is like the sean may of music, potential through the roof but never developed

[Rejito]

@thefinkiewicz  i see your point. I do think he is a great drummer. The thing is if you have les as your bassist, you don´t need such a great drummer. The bass fills the song so much that the drummer can´t follow him 100%, and i think it might probably sound kind of saturated.

[Rejito]

@thefinkiewicz Where did you see that?? In an interview?

[8Zeitgeist]

frank zappa? lol

[mauileqwerty]

Finally, a truly good interview

[shaboobo1988]

Larry!! come back to Possessed!!

[omarkaya42]

Ler's history of the band is pure gold. Love Ler.

[evanfity]

hahah lookin like zappa...

[sublimefolife]

Bad Brains H.R in the back

[Canaveral305]

FINALLY we can hear the truth about Primus's creation.

[RussX5Z]

The slant eye Japanese imitation was a little racist.

[JimmyMcG91]

@RussX5Z Primus sucks... don't worry about it.

[Tettuli]

@RussX5Z how?

[LuckilyHeDied]

@RussX5Z Yes, except Brain's mother is Japanese.

[bizzyindmp220]

2:00 tell us a story uncle lelonde lolol

[WalkerMacd393]

dude, ive watched this about 20 times now...

[TheDDDeagle]

Primus sucks!

[eobo1]

[Tfr3sh17]

They keep playing fish on.

[buokopter]

H.R human rights is a good album

[TT8073]

Hahaha Brain is so stoned!

[Trifecta34]

les claypool and his 70s porn-star look very awesome

[tobbelobbe666]

"True to the metal, bro"... Larry LaLolonde can fuck off

[DoctorRobertBobby]

@tobbelobbe666 why?

[tobbelobbe666]

@DoctorRobertBobby Becuase he was not true to the metal. Bro.

[1970metalfan]

@tobbelobbe666 you sir can fuck off

[cptXmunch]

idk much bout primus but they all seem very high

[pike755]

This is retarded, everthing they are talkin bout has been cut out. Stupid!!!

[polkafrenzy666]

"Originally the band was called Def Leppard we were pretty big, a lot of people heard of us, maybe your parents told you about it and then after that we met the maharishi in the 60's and um we changed our name to the BeAtles, you know alot of people pronounce it wrong."

Ler that shit was priceless man.

[dmbondemand]

Les is a genius but PRIMUS SUCKS!

[nuke97]

Ler is awesome!!

[smellslikevin]

lol it is pretty cool that they all scream PRIMUS SUCKS PRIMUS SUCKS!!!,but claypool dosent like it any more he thinks its"overused"

[Stampit88]

You fucking rule Mr. Claypool!

[thegtank]

Primus on VIVA... WTF!

[JurekWWW]

@thegtank it was the previous decade :)

[mettalx1]

Primus is the most coolest band ever, theyr soo chilled all the time, and are really nice people to talk to (I only guess). Primus sucks!

[dommer117]

brians very very gone....it's also very very funny how more openly political primus and les r' getting

[CowboyMidnight]

Nice haircut...also called microphone....

Thanks for posting

[OutFromOutWere]

IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT "PRIMUS SUCKS" MEANS

GET OUT OF HERE...

geeze... know your bands dammit...

HAIL PRIMUS!

[FunkMasterGodOfRock2]

@OutFromOutWere Oh of course, you have to be in on the stupid little secrets of the fans to like the music. You do know that Les doesn't like it when people say that anymore yeah?

[MrBLAOSVSE]

they are stoned

[BLACKMETALHELLBILLY]

@MrBLAOSVSE and im stoned to hahahahaha

[Radz117]

@MrBLAOSVSE Did they do drugs?

[ShreddGamer14]

@Radz117 not hard drugs. they were'nt burnouts

[SuperDrRockzo]

@ShreddGamer14 I'm pretty sure at least Ler was into blow quite a bit...

[AlexKalicinski]

@MrBLAOSVSE They are trippn those are some big ass pupils

[Uzzie101]

@MrBLAOSVSE Les is sitting too upright to be stoned

[mediblue9]

Les is like a really talentedl weird al.

[Chakan]

Some Primus fan you are..

[TheSmashingApples]

I just started listening to them. is their some inside joke or sumthin?

[JJgamer93]

Yeah essentially, after a while you think that you'd see a pattern....

[KodiakDipper92]

ya really

[punkjunk5]

baack in the 90's someone said to les "hey your bands reallllly good" les said "no we suck" its been a catch phrase ever since i have a shirt that says primus sucks

[inesenthm]

Primus Sucks is an old thing that Primus itself started. When used in regards to Primus it means someone likes Primus.

But it's outdated and the band now hates it. But to the fans, it means that they love Primus.

[CRYFORDAWN]

FYI that is what Primus fans scream at Primus shows...

[JJgamer93]

Les: "This is the greatest video ever made by mindkind"

Me: (Excited)

Video: 0:40 - 0:42

Me: (Crap self with laughter)

Great editing, Primus Sucks!

[guildensternisalive]

buongiorno!?!?!

[calronk]

i wish he ididnt cut stuff out

[roadworms]

@calronk: the whole show was more than 1 hr long (even with the commercial breaks cut out) ... so i've put focus on the Primus interview stuff right here. Maybe, if i find some spare time i'll post the Primus live footage from the show some day soon - who knows? ;-)

[acdcfan7676]

primus sucks!

[TheLoveMaker232]

amen

[crisco1up]

alright all u ass holes the guy who put the vid up here cut the videos out

[aakkoin]

totally sweet mtv-filming...... not

[nyboy010101]

you don't deserve to even have an opinion. BITCH!!!!!!

[taylordut]

what a shitty video all it is, is him introducing videoclips then the video clip is cut out then he introduces anotherone.

[Tilaron]

I miss that 'fro.

[DylanVanella]

Primucus Erecticus?

[PsychoholicGremlin]

pretty much everyone who went over Niagra Falls (except like 2 people) either died doing it or died afterward.....PRIMUS SUCKS!!!!!

[wesjoe311]

Well, everyone dies eventually. Do you mean they died due to injuries sustained later on down the line?

[PsychoholicGremlin]

yea...i should have said they either died doing it or got broke very soon after and died in poverty (yeah thats better) except for one guy who just jumped off the falls in a baithing suit...but he was banned from ever going back to niagra falls again.

[nyboy010101]

that's not true! unless my uncle died and is still here among the living :P

[zacktothefuture]

how stoned are they here?

[cookie5455]

[roadworms]

I've heard of that, but i don't see the connection to this vid.

[brassaflax]

larry lalonde was the guitarist in possesed

[roadworms]

Thanks for this hint, brassaflax! :-)

[Fattyfatty2X]

@brassaflax So, I've been trying to figure out what Buckethead looks like under the mask, Larry magically disappears when Buckethead shows up, they both have played for Primus, and they both have really long fingers...
