(Part 1 / 9) Primus @ Outside Lands Fest, SF, 8/23/08

[ragethesystem91]

Ok, I have a question about Primus. I know they suck but they have such a weird rep that I would think that their band mates fluctuate. Is that the case?

[SuperTowlie420]

Primus is so awesome!!!!!!!

[primus696969]

why do they never do festivals!

[tabseb3]

Doersn't really look as though Les has any fun anymore, I'm going to search for 2011 concerts and see if it's worse, try going from Jerry was a racecar driver to this and see if it's the same ;

[RafikiZazu1]

yyz for some reason

[Nitro487]

i get to see les for my 5th time on halloween! :D

[ProToolPat]

holly shit those opening sound checks were epic!!!

[DaSchnozz]

DAMN IT!!! i wish i could have been there :(

[TomAce200]

I love how they open with Rush.

[Spermwhales93]

@sailorblumoon 2008, so it's 3 years old.

[dmtharpua]

one of my fav bands and really what a great drummer

[truffelsnuffler]

Here come the Bastards!!!

[machigina1]

This show was Off The Hook !

[EugeneRealtor]

"Holy crap" at 2:20 Les actually looked happy. Bless that man, he can't even enjoy his own gift sometimes. I love him

[ooktar]

I think this video is louder than how it actually sounded live. It was a great show nonetheless. Got to see them two nights in a row for new years in Oakland. One of the greatest live performances of all time.

[dontmesafrusciante]

brain is in Gn R

[kevdoom2]

is that brain on drums someone help me!!!!!!!

[kacox0]

@kevdoom2 no dude, is Herb

[kevdoom2]

@kacox0 wheres brain?????

[kacox0]

@kevdoom2 i dont know... I guess he's with Serj Tarkian and F.C.C

[dontmesafrusciante]

@kevdoom2 guns n roses

[rpsmith014]

@kevdoom2 Are you sad about Brain's absence? Herb is the man, I enjoy his style much more although it's not as well heard here.

[kevdoom2]

@rpsmith014 im very sad i love brain hes the best

[rpsmith014]

@kevdoom2 No way man! Brain is good but Herb is better, he's just as important to Primus as Les or Ler.  When they were touring with Brain they were just not the same band.

[kevdoom2]

@rpsmith014 but brain is beastly becuasde he was with buckethead

[Jrim615]

PRIMUS SUCKS!!!!!!!

[mythkid1208]

@HYPERZEPHARIAN Prime-us. I used to pronounce it Pree-mus but I heard les say "prime-us" so I started pronouncing it like that

[ThrobnWood]

@mythkid1208 'Primus' is an olde Latin word. It has multiple meanings but is generally derived from the Latin for 'the first one', or 'chief'.

[mythkid1208]

@ThrobnWood Oh yeah, I heard that

[hEINRICh6669]

Primus sucks big time. YEAH!!! PRIIIIIMUSSSS!!!!!

[DrumPlayer100]

Herb looks like he freakin hates playing with primus now!

[andbanned]

here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come here they come

[Debonardo]

Les' face from 2:19 - 2:24 is funny has hell lmfao

primus sucks

[VanWeinus]

FUCK YESS!! PRIMUS SUX (true primus fans will know what im talkin about)

[velvet23revolver]

@VanWeinus dont you love it when you comment that and some noob comments back, "What Do You Mean!! Primus is amazing!!!"

[HYPERZEPHARIAN]

Is it pronounced "Prime-us" or "Pree-mus"?

[aLittleDarkEyed]

@HYPERZEPHARIAN Pree-mus... only if you're a cool kid.

[dontmesafrusciante]

NIce vid

[sjjeross4]

[maddmatster]

[shamwoww]

[inbl00m93]

[DrumPlayer100]

Whos the drummer? i thought it was supposed tobe Bryan

[ukkoite]

@DrumPlayer100 Tim "Herb" Alexander.

[DrumPlayer100]

@ukkoite Oh yeah i didnt think that it was him at first but now i see

[moses62]

Thanx Jesus for Primus-still luv and respect!!! Les is the man

[javierisaacsierra]

¡¡¡Que vengan a México!!!

Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeee

:D

Primus is the best irreverent Band!!!

[niebuhr92]

Single best set-list....EVER!

[hairmonster12]

did Herb have cancer or something? he don't look so good

[PrimusSucksOnThis]

@hairmonster12 herb doesn't have cancer you dink. he's just getting old.

[morado666]

Mike Patton love Primus. Both are genius !

[hisdudeness09]

les should just do a whole album of him talking. he is the most entertaining perform musically and showmanship.

[niebuhr92]

Not to disagree...but Mike Patton might top him

Primus Sucks! (:

[Grumpkin67]

"Thanks a lot! We're Primus. We suck" One of the few bands with an irreplaceable drummer. It did NOT work with Brain at all. So glad Herb is back.

[shmak]

Herb was fuckin tight, dont know what u talking about..

[joelpizzaguy]

agree. not that brain was not a good drummer, but tim alexander is one of the best.

[MantraTherapy]

Les Claypool has stated that he hopes 2010 will be a Primus year. that had better mean a US tour!!!

i saw them back in 06 in houston and they were amazing. one of the best shows ive ever been to and thats saying alot.

[ObakeGodOfShrink]

@MantraTherapy And hopefully also in Europe : D

[Dillbob1]

maybe we should finish the rest of the song

[drimmie]

even as they get up there in age, Primus is still kicking ass!

[AH1881]

rofl " i like ur shirt its very nice" whahahaha

[AH1881]

[dontmesafrusciante]

@AH1881 he the man!!!!

[Pablo0609]

2:20 Les Claypool face!!!

PRIMUS SUCKS!

[floydrebel]

your face!!! YOU SUCK!

[Pablo0609]

That's the slogan for the group,if you didn't know

[dangerdonnie35]

this was the greatest performance i have ever witnessed. i dont know if it was all the bud or the tabs of acid in the old system but this shit was FUCKING epic

[petar1987]

i'm glad to see herb is back on stage

PRIMUS SUCKS

LARRY IS A BASTARD

[themuffin311]

primus sucks so darn bad!

[interloperftv]

Even though if Les said that "Primus Sucks" is getting old... man, it'll never get old. Primus sucks!

[joeldog25]

PRIMUS SUCKS !!!!!!!!!!!!

[PRSGuitarist1]

This concert was epic.

[omgwtfwhoami]

God Primus sucks so much.  I love the YYZ intro. This live performance is top notch.

[mixedpersonalitydude]

Awsome upload!

PRIMUS SUCKS!

[nohopejones]

ok when fans say primus sucks it like saying primus rules or primus is great! back in the early days of primus les made "primus sucks" a chatch phrase. so when fans say it its because they love primus. ok they dont mean it literally. and if u were a real and true fan u would have already known that

[aguacateojos]

Les made it a catch-phrase in that folks would see him on the street and compliment the band, to which he would respond "no, we suck." And so it caught on.

[flakoman711]

amazing vid.

PRIMUS SUCKS!

[Dauthi111]

Primus:)kurwa kiedy przyjada do europy pozdro z Polski

[scarzz86]

it doesn't SUCK!!! he SUCK!!!

[ckycanuck]

"It's a little cold on the finger's up here"

[Apoca669]

WHY Primus SUCK? Someone can explain to me in espanish please

[WINEMONKEY2]

Back in the mid-1980's when they were just getting started, they would start their set with "Hi, we're Primus and we suck." A sort of self-effacing thing.

[UNITE33]

Detrás a mediados de los años 1980 cuando ellos se hacían sólo comenzados, ellos comenzarían su juego "con Hola, somos Primus y chupamos." Una especie de cosa modesta. Better?

[Sansmesonge]

Great upload!,

PRIMUS SUCKS!

[ThrobnWood]

Their classic intro of Rush's YYZ followed by.. Here Come The Bastards!

[1337Pwn4g3]

what song is this?

[swagar]

For a brief moment, his bullet mic was actually louder than his regular mic.

Mark this on your calendars, folks.

[DrugsyDrugs]

man thank u, u did a great work uploading the all concert! ur my hero! PRIMUS SUCKS

[eyealone]

PRIMUS SUCKS!

[NicholasJamesWells]

Where do you get these videos?

[othila321]

I found it as a bittorrent file somewhere. I can't seem to find it again.

[tebayass]

if you can find it again please give me a link:D

greets

[plaidsmen]

@othila321 you wouldn't steal a car. you wouldn't steal a handbag. you wouldn't steal a dvd. Pirating is illegal. hahahaha. those commercials crack me up

[Muffpojken]

my bad, youre right :)

[kuufuu]

Yes they do play My Name Is Mud. It starts half way through part 5 and go's in to part 6. ;)

[Muffpojken]

No the did not. All songs they played are featured on YouTube.

[tebayass]

did they play my name is mud on this festival? cant find that song there

[Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah]

Fuck i wanna see les play live.

[Justinmcn]

i'm the one they zoom in on in the bass glasses such an awesome fucking show!!!

[ThaNedster828]

lol wow what are the odds

[ALPHAQUPNOW]

dude wtf its actually you loll

[evilempire96]

That's naughty of them to play John The Fisherman intro then switch it! Hey that's Primus I guess lol.

[ThaNedster828]

um...they didnt play john the fisherman. that was yyz by rush. but it is the intro to john the fisherman on one of their albums i think so nevermind. :P

[evilempire96]

Omg can't believe I got a thumbs down lol!

[FunkHolerz]

They took the intro from YYZ and Put it at the beginning of the Fisherman on Suck On This (Live).

[buddyboombotz2]

Haha another rage primus fan like me

[evilempire96]

Any chance you like Pearl Jam aswell?

[poyzork]

Is that Herb Alexander on drums? Did they switch back after the brown album with Brain?

[ytpyay]

Brain's on Brown Album, Rhinoplasty, and Antipop.  In 2003 after their hiatus they reunited with herb.

[Jack458111]

i saw a black dude in the audience.. wtf?

[fullnelsongrip]

Yes. From time to time, an individual of African-American descent, will for some reason enjoy the musical sounds produced by Primus. White psychologists are working on this phenomenon.

[jsteinha1]

and to think, with all those mindless computer-generated beats, an occasional african-american individual can appreciate the unbelievable talent that is primus

[HamerLamer]

@fullnelsongrip as one of those african americans, i can offer a little input; primus is fucking genius, plain and simple.

[AlexBurtonFilms]

@fullnelsongrip and why cant black guys enjoy primus?

[tropicalthunder232]

@AlexBurtonFilms lol sarcasm and it was well put blacky

[armysonxtc]

I envy you, Les.

[nightsoldier1112]

Les is the weirdest character, AND WE LOVE HIM FOR IT =)

[heydonttouchthat08]

niether do i, i thought it was him

but the KD thing is weird

eh it was an awesome ass show so doesnt matter anymore lol

[heydonttouchthat08]

ok whos drumming i have one of the drumsticks and its signed KD so now im confused..

[ilotoe1]

Tim Alexander is drumming.... but i dont know why it would be KD.

[SystemSpecs]

Tim "Herb" Alexander is drumming. Les clearly says his name in the next video (Part 2/9) at 2:06.

[heydonttouchthat08]

yeah i thought so.

i was there so i heard him say Tim "Herb" and then mumbling because of all the screaming. thanks.

[heydonttouchthat08]
