[obagysan]

Too bad more musicians aren't more like Les, he's a very respectable guy.

[schulhoff18]

[LukeQuietus]

I like that he didn't let him get kicked out. Everyone deserves a second chance kind of attitude. Legend.

[LieutenantDan605]

Am i the only one that thinks when he says "Hey, Hey there, slim" he sounds like Kermit?

[mrserjmalakian]

I love how the audience goes "awwww" when Les says "You don't have to boot him out"

[schulhoff18]

[Theshark15z]

Les Claypool should have just off the stage and hit him with his Bass.

[cardinalis]

Awesome!!!!

[xriffingXirishXguyx]

[ReefWellington]

That looks like a really cool venue.

[SureFire420]

[Dillbob1]

hey there slim

[wolderbeast]

wolderbeast@scottymankoff--dud­e where was this show at?

[scottmankoff]

HOB Dallas

[crayZtaco7]

ALOT BETTER THAN AXEL ROSE'S BITCH ASS. he handled this very well.

[aquasloth]

He did something similar when I saw him at the Roseland in Portland a few years ago, and he kept yelling at some drunk douche in the audience who was trashing about, but the dude wasn't even looking at the stage, so he had to keep yelling, "HEY, UP HERE! LOOK OVER HERE, ASSHOLE!"

I swear, that man has the patience of a saint to deal with so many irritating assholes.

[Gangu1z]

Well, he's alot better at dealing with people than Josh Homme.

[brennan61]

Just pick your space and do your thing.

[Terrorizzzm]

I just saw Claypool on Sunday in Santa Cruz. He stopped the show to call out some guy shoving people around. And then at some kid who was super high on drugs and was annoying everyone around him. Amazing show.

[nuke97]

@Terrorizzzm I heard about that!!!...what did he say to him???

[drpedro98]

@Terrorizzzm

i was there!

very very trues, it was great to see his ass get handed to him

[spicyMcHAGGIS9green]

"Mr. Potatohead we love you. YOU!! Hey you."

Epic.

[panicxitsxbrea]

Ahaha, brilliant. x)

[freakystyley4000]

"Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey, SLIM."

Les, you are a fucking class act!

[scrispy12]

amazing

[Nitro487]

is this at The Warfield?

[GTCooper223]

@Nitro487 It looks like The Warfield.

[scottmankoff]

House of Blues, Dallas.

[skooterseven]

Sorry i couldnt hear that good what was the guy doing

[robertorendorff]

he was prolly moshing and shit, bumbing into people and just all around being a douche bag

[PuckettJp2]

at least Les seems to take it pretty easy, remains calm pretty about it

[carsonhorne]

he reminds me a bit of danny mcbride

[DrunkenAtlantis]

Les claypool is one cool cat.

[BackwardsCup]

@DrunkenAtlantis

Seriously. Fuckin' props to Les Claypool man. He's relaxed, and a really nice guy.

[thomasrix]

[robdelabassist]

[HPLovethrash]

[dzdncnfzd3]

HEll yea les is a quirky hilarious guy. Great music and great personality probably an all around great guy

[johnh32156]

Bravo Mr. Claypool! You are a great musician and a very generous individual that calls it like you see it. You set a good example here by doing what you did.

[iLoveOlivaMunn]

oh shit there is a video of this..yeah i was really drunk and on 2 hits of some low grade acid and i thought there was alot of flies around me so i was trying to get them away and i kept on hitting the people around me and i guess this bothered les...sorry les.

[ChocolateTystick]

[Aplestialito]

[iLoveOlivaMunn]

dont even get me started man, i would love too..i would love to fuck the living shit out of her and turn her inside out and shread that pussy into peices and just fucking eat whats left of her go damm..and thats just a quicky..

[poochiepooh]

What a gentleman... He handled himself alot better that other muscians.

[Warthogfan]

@poochiepooh Yep Axl Rose would have walked offf and refused to come back on. Way to go Les

[Superunknown190]

@poochiepooh better than Axl

[biggzcorey]

Holy shit, I was at this show. It's at the house of blues in dallas. The guy was EXTREMELY drunk, I wasn't behind him or anything, but I clearly saw him. He was pushing people and being extremely obnoxious. Les Claypool didn't even kick him out, but the guy ended up leaving soon after anyway.

[crazypictureguy]

You're right, I shot this video at HOB Dallas. That was one GREAT SHOW!

[PhukkOfff]

what a doucher, why get so fucked up that you can't even enjoy the music

[6999999METAL6666669]

when i went to primus concert some girl flashed les and les was like iv never seen those at a primus concert before he is really funny

[jasonpilla]

Beautiful!!! If on the slim to none chance that Les, you should read this, good for you.... Don't Fucking put up with this crap. Go to a show, enjoy it and don't ruin it for the person beside you. Simple.... unless your just a DUMBASS that has to have basic social etiquette explained to him.

[92MrHankey]

what was the dude actually doing tho???

Dancing bad?

[leifnoto]

that was really nice of him to warn him like that, "no you don't have to boot him out"

[runningpsycho69]

i love how he calls assholes out and makes them feel like jerk off's good job les!

[Mosin54r]

Be on your best behavior to a Les Claypool show or the Colonel will have you behave!!!!

[punkrocknroll91]

ha tell em les

if i was playing a show with my band and some fucktard like came onstage and fucked with my kit or something like that I would shove a drumstick up his ass

[UngratefulLiving420]

Hahahaha oh shit.. "Hey, hey, hey there slim. Mr potato head we love you...YOU!"

what does he say after he says, "pick your space and do your thing"?

[n8uraln82]

he was saying, "hey you don't have to boot him out dude..."

[stirish16]

he said "you don't have to boot him out"

[robertorendorff]

can you imagine how embarrassing that would be lol, the bastard deserves it though, its cool les told them not to kick him out though

[phishinvan]

I wish more bands would do this. I can think of a handful of post-hiatus Phish shows where they should have just stopped and said something to the crowd.

There have been many occasions when I've watched a certain member of a band on stage watching an audience member with a look of disgust. And dodging glowsticks hurled at you on purpose and then people throwing glowsticks at your guitar as it sits on in stand on stage during setbreak are grounds for removal. As far as I'm concerned.

[xobrentox]

Go Les!!!

[frarfarf]

What's the deal, the guy must have been like going round to everyone and yelling angrily right into their faces or something

Clapool PWNED

[mildseven2006]

He was probably moshing and slamming into people

[WisconsinParkour]

at least he's not a dick to the guy. just tells him how it goes.

love Les Claypool! Guy is fucking nuts on the bass!

[chaosmyr]

i have only seen him really pissed once and that was after some dude spit at him a ton of times.

[guydude446]

Tell em how it is les!~

[Schectler]

LMAO did he seriously piss his pants!??!?!?

[NAHORY1]

LES RULES!!!!! He is one of the almost unexistent artists that pays attention to their audience!!!!

[alicesoph]

I wouldn't mind being shouted at by Les Claypool, if he spoke to me, I could possibly wee myself.

[Charlie1821]

jizz in your pants?

[alicesoph]

Girls have penis's?

[BronsoIo]

sometimes they do... but they are called

innies... kinda like a belly button

[alicesoph]

Haha, how funny.

[itsgaythatyourgay]

no they have pussy's, the dicks go in them

[cynicaldrumming]

yo does anyone know what the fan was actually doing?

[hotbebe231]

man i went to my first concert 3/21/09 for les and some guy wouldnt SIT DOWN!! my dads friend threw change at him and he freaked out and left it was sooo funni until a fat guy sat in front of me but les played an awesome show someone even threw something up there (i think a shirt) and he was so funni about it!! i <3 him!!

[kbkos]

[SmokeyMcPot420yee]

[thebeargod23]

[n8uraln82]

Lat time Primus played the Hult Center here in Eugene some people kept flashing Les some stupid sign they made and all Les said was.. "Yes I've seen it.. very nice thank you.. But if you'd just stick it in your pocket now I'm sure the people behind you would be very appreciative.." What a class act!
