Les Claypool, Buckethead and Bernie Worrell live at Wakarusa

[TimmyJJam07]

I'd probably break my jand trying 2 play that bass. Tjam*

[anonymus1desconocido]

la banda zora del juego de zelda majoras mask

[raz3rburnify]

So much awesomeness on stage, cannot.... be.... contained....

[railer16]

sweet bucket fancyness

[ChaosAnarchyMaddness]

I'd love to see these guys work with Julian Barrett and do a soundtrack to some crazy Mighty Boosh live show!

[todnwen]

Even the crowd is like what the hell is this noise. Les is a briliant player but cant sing and random jazz notes is note what the crowd came to see.

[todnwen]

Like the shunned family of Dream Theater.

[hvasaten]

imo this sounds like "dyreforsøg" and "primus" on shrooms.. woow my braiiin :-D

[b1llygo4t]

how do i get the video from the rest of this concert? i have high definition photos from this and the bucket set before hand. i also have this whole concert recorded and both buckethead sets in flac. i would be wiling to trade. the photos arent public

[Cyrix166]

can anyone tell me who the girl with the blue hair is?

[BondyIsACult]

@Cyrix166 Gabby La La

[ipawilzon]

watching this almost made my head explode.. jebus where was I at when this show went down.. ARGHHHHH!!!!

[MachinimaBrothers]

Wow, such an amazing combo it almost hurts,

[Guitarisma]

I naturally like His Music But Leslie "Claypool" Edwards was a fucking dick to me when I met him and I'll never invest in that piece of shit again.

[negativekind]

@Guitarisma what did he do?

[voicesinmehead]

@Guitarisma really? in what way...specify

[Guitarisma]

@voicesinmehead Basically dissing me in front of all of my friends.

[voicesinmehead]

@Guitarisma thats not cool, but i mean he must have just been takin the piss, like, havin a laugh but you took it offensively? same as i would my friends or whatever...or at least thats what i hope :/ maybe he was just bein a dick but i cant see it

[Guitarisma]

@voicesinmehead Yeah I ain't quick to judge but I can totally tell he was being a dick.

[voicesinmehead]

@Guitarisma sorry for your loss, i bet your love of primus etc. is tainted forever

[casparwijn]

@almu6laq: my god what ignorance.. back in 1969.. when all these other cats where still pooping their diapers.. Bernie worrell ( you might want to goolge him) was playing with parliamnt funkadelic.. inventing a genre in itself.. please do your home work before you make stuppid, ignorant and by the way.. racist remarks.. you tosser! Berny is actually classically trained and i think the only reason he's playing random stuff is to mess with your mind.. which is something he succeeds in .. LOL

[lostny76]

@almu6laq

you sir r a fuk ing idiot

[Georgiew1]

Buckethead greatest guitarist of all time.

Les Claypool greatest bassist of all time.

[skinheadhenry]

masterbation is allowed

[rushpython100]

they are certainly some interesting characters. Reminds me of a neo-frank zappa

[Racer64XXX]

cartoon funk

[anvb5a1]

ok... so... colonnel claypool's bucket of bernie baldie right?  but... who's that lady with that banjo thing?

[KAGEJOSE]

@anvb5a1 Thats Gabby LaLa! And she is playing a sitar.

[theHomemadeCouch]

PRIMUS SUCKS!!!!

[DushiGG]

believe in the lie, b-b-b-b-believe in the lie, of the big eyeball in the sky!

[420captain]

Buckethead rocks,but he seemed a little lost through most of the video until he got together with the sax and then it seemed to take a minute for even them to grove together,then the ending was decent. Then again I couldn't hear most of what Buckethead was doing for some reason.Anyway, Les is the master,and Oysterhead should do another album.Those guys rocked it in the best way.Even though the groove and bass playing in this tune was awesome,the song kinda gave me a headache.END the drug WAR! ty

[UnknownSect333]

@420captain Ahhhh, what do you know? lol

[420captain]

@UnknownSect333 Not much. : } ,But Oysterhead was a great little band. Les,trey,and stu ? Blackjack. lol

[xaviermike]

amazing how so many people can mesh 

[budhasac]

this is what LSD taste like :)

[saitaro]

When my son asks me what is music I'll show him this video.

[wtfbbqcheez]

I think what we have here... is Colonel Claypool's Fancy Bucket of Bernie Gabby!

[thelastpachyderm]

@wtfbbqcheez it was actually Col. Claypool's Fancy Bucket of Bernie Baldie. Baldie is the the drummer he was using that tour instead of Brain.

[wtfbbqcheez]

@thelastpachyderm Ah, I stand corrected. :)

[j0sh1888]

is it just me, or does buckethead actually seem ''happy'' when he duets with skerik

[kmkoren]

Gabby not so much

[kghsbassboy]

i like sax dude and bh's little duet part at 7:43 yea that whole thing, sax dude: "do do dee DEE DOOO do DEEEE DEE DO DO DOWWWWWWWW WOW WOW WOOOWWWWW DOODLIE DOODLIE DOODLIE DLODDLEI DLLLOOOOO DIE DLOODIDY DLOODIE DDOOOOOOOOWOWOWO" then bh follows up with a " doo digga do digga doodlie digy doodily digigiggigigig a...... doog bow wowo wwwoo woo wow wow bow wob bow wow owo o wow wow bow -end o song" tis most kick ass ending lol

[kghsbassboy]

[xStarXplanetTV]

random

[BoxenstienMusic]

excellent footage!

[Unclelud]

THis Was Astounding to watch!!  I could go Deaf tommorow and no that I would be happy . To not hear anything again!! The Ending is very special with Skerik and Bucket!!

[chucku00]

IVII° century music... for sure ! So long, and thanks for all the fish !

[maxx3442]

Les is a goofy fuck but he slaps that bass like a brutha., .ie. Larry Graham et al.

[ami2evil]

...what the?

[phrydmphytr]

are you serious?

[CoolKodiak]

Awesome, great, amazing, awe-inspiring, awing, buddha bass player, enchanter, necromancer, enchanter, warlock, witch, wizard

[SoFarSoGoodSoWhat14]

@CoolKodiak Wow, Thesaurus much?

[carcassofhuman]

my god my god my god

[Wabaanimkii]

at 2:21 it looks like kramer on the drums

[Wabaanimkii]

whoah....that was so different it was great.

[Situious]

This is fucking awesome!

[rick420wood]

that was AMAZING FUN!!!

[troyzkoi]

Is this the band in star wars when obi-one takes look to the bar for his first time

[kghsbassboy]

whats this one called? lyrics?

[ObakeGodOfShrink]

The Big Eyeball in the Sky.

Its from the CD with the same name.

[budhasac]

This is what LSD taste like

[Timmmmay86]

@budhasac agreed i was there I felt like I was tasting what I felt like.....hmmm....ya thats the only way to describe it lol

[THACONCH]

Damn i wish i was back at one of the shows for this tour! Truly some of the most amazing sounds in music these days. . .

[goodOLDbabyKISSES]

this sucks with out brain. brain is so much more original.

whatdaheck5 does not know what he is talking.

listen 2 the way Brain hits his cymbals and his fills are way different then any drummer i have ever heard and i heard a lot of drummers

[cutslicepunchjag]

nice comeback

[cutslicepunchjag]

this ones for dyingfetus. u have have no idea what your talking about. i bet u have never even playied the drums before in your life. hes so good i thought it was a drum machine the first time i heard monsters and robots. please dont post anything if what u say dosent make any seance. U R THE BALL LICKER.

[xdyingfetusx69]

lol you are a dumb ass

[whatdaheck5]

brain works so well in groups. He can groove really fucking good.  Not much on the originality level though, but thats ok.

[farmhandstudios]

kernel claypools bucket of berny bobby? am i right?

[aftermathfool]

at first i thought the same thing, but i think i he actually said said "Baldi", cuz the drummer's name is paulo baldi.

[xdyingfetusx69]

personally, I think brain sucks, but he compliments this group nicely.  his solo's suck tho still imo

[PrimusClambake]

although its baldi on the kit in this vid, ill agree that brain does compliment the group quite nicely. Iw ouldnt say his solos suck, they might not be the best or u may not like them, but brain is a very talented man.

[HoLLYWOOD681]

Do you mean Brian as in Buckethead?

[xdyingfetusx69]

no i meant what i saidd brain

[anthonypi]

Wow just Wow

[chykymunky]

That was an Awesome Weekend.......Except For all the Cops,and the eye in the sky.I couldn't find shit there to fill my head.When I got there and drove down shakedown street, there were rows of vendors selling glass,the next day it was all gone.Gabby LaLa (the blue wig) Put on one hell of a show the night before. Awesome video man

[elmihai]

If Vienna's concert this spring will be as fun as this, I'll even eat shit to get there.

[ShogunRua19]

wow that was an amazing jam much respect to all of the outstanding musicians involved

[Element8932]

Sitar!

[PhDMegaManX]

i think it should be mandatory for all people who wish to trip balls to listen to this as they do such

[Iwnda0]

the sax player has to be on acid hahahaha what a bird

[deathtrack15]

what instrument is the green haired lady holding? a banjo?

[BIGCJMCNASTY]

If it's Gabby Lala its called a sitar.

[advilbrewer]

Imagine this band:

Les Claypool

Buckethead

Robert Plant (in his prime)

Danny Carey (drummer of Tool)

It might not be your super deep heartfelt type of music... but holy shit would that be crazy.

[ivanspecs]

I would say Claypool, Buckethead, Arpmandude, Terry Bozzio, Mike Patton =)

[Diffle]

Neil Peart > Danny Carey.

[Satanamo666]

Buddy Rich > Neil Peart

[TheAzv3]

Buckethead really started to get in the spirit of LEs's vibe towards the end of that song finally. Its literally the 1st bit Ive heard that seemed to fit...

[korn1017]

does anyone know what song they are playing

[Larrylarp]

Yeah, it says so right in the description. They're playing "The Big Eyeball in the Sky".

[upofan]

Title track..."The Big Eyeball in the Sky"

[reinecke99]

This is the most badass shit i've ever seen!

[YRtist]

The Skerik-Buckethead duel at the end gave me a tingle in my trousers

[ratmforthewin]

the other singer (not les) makes it sound bad though :(

[Larrylarp]

You mean Gabby? I don't think she's making it bad. It fits in quite well.

[strav12]

Drummer is pretty shit hot here....

[giak24]

best bassist and best guitarist together... technically i mean...

[Larrylarp]

These people are gods. Claypool, Buckethead, Bernie, Gabby La La, Skerik, Mike Dillon... if this isn't a supergroup, I don't know what is.

[TheSacredcow024]

@Larrylarp

Agreed except for Gabby La La. TERRIBLE!

[Larrylarp]

@TheSacredcow024 But she plays the sitar! And anyone who does so is awesome by default... and damn, I like her singing, for some reason. It's not's like Les is a very good singer himself, it's the instruments that make the song so awesome.

[TheSacredcow024]

@Larrylarp

yes awesome song, awesome that she plays sitar. I was just disagreeing with the "god" label. Have u heard her solo stuff? sooo bad

[Larrylarp]

@TheSacredcow024 Yeah, to tell you the truth, I hadn't listened to her solo stuff prior, and I have to say that she only becomes a musical god when she plays with these guys. You're pretty much right about her solo stuff... ugh...

[DNBGuRu]

Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains, but I dig Claypool's renaming at this show that's great!

[Larrylarp]

It's not C2B3 because Brain isn't on the drums here.

[HailMetalHailPunk]

So the band consists of 1 bass, 1 guitar, 1 keyboard, 1 guitar, 1 drums, and a sitar?

Weirdest band i've seen.

[achickensandwich]

bass, guitar, keyboard, horns, drums, percussion, sitar and a guy with a bucket on his head, actually.

[theartofshred]

english fail.

[theartofshred]

why's everyone talking?!

show some respect for your gods of music!

[spiderman15000]

gods ???? fuck u shit

i know just allah

Fuck off your gods

[bowelrock]

allah is dead a US MARINE killed him

[cluclumaster]

Colonel Claypool's Fancy Bucket of Bernie Baldi. I like it.

[friedworms13]

Les and Buckethead....motherfucker wish I could have been there!!!

[uburei]

would be nice to see a second drummer on this set, maybe some big guy like steve gadd or chester thompson

[mky4mayhem]

Primus sucks!!!!

but no Brains?

[weehector1]

love bernie worrell.check out his sounds with Jesse Rae

[Tambourineman420]

FUCK!! I love weird sounds that sound weird for the sake of being odd. this is some GrOOvy SHit

[LATERALUS2012]

Bernie Worrell = BAMF

[0acidtrance0]

"Primus sucks!"

'Fuck you, theyre awesome'

"No, thats what they used to say at every show; it was their slogan for a while"

Every Claypool video I watch, same thing in the comments. lol

[oud25]

if it was only bernie and lesclaypool and the chick

with only vocals and the piano it would be pretty trippy sounding

[Timmmmay86]

I was tripping balls at this, so amazing!!

[dahalofreeek]

Awesome sax playing but a bari would have probably been cooler

[antiemo938726]

what a mean fucking tenor player!

[jesuschristwasntcott]

I love primus and buckethead. both together is awesome. all i want to know though is whats this "primus sucks" thing? im confuzzled about it. im not a hardcore fan so idk what it is. but i do love claypools music

[angelofdeathsix66]

Back in the day when Primus was around Les Claypool said that "Primus Sucks" so ever since then everyone has said that its like saying "Primus Kicks Ass" but ina Primus kind of way

[c4n0]

thats not primus its a whole different ensembe...

someone asked claypool once something about that night's primus performance and les replyed "primus sucks", dats y

[heavybarz]

yo whats the name of the instrument making TINGTING noise, that dude in the back is playing it, it is similar to drums except that it is made of glass or something....please clarify if u will...thanks

[caingerdanger]

mike dillon playing the vibraphone. i had the opportunity of seeing him at a dive playing for about 50 people....pretty awesome. i also witnessed a jackass try to go bang on his instrument before the show. dillon was not amused.

[vtgamehendge]

I love C2B3, seen them live before, awesome show. And I'm a huge Buckethead fan, seen him like 5 times. But this just has a little too much going on for me. Way too busy. At some parts it's just noise. Maybe it was better in person.

[Tambourineman420]

I dont understand with people like les claypool still creating this diverse kinda sounds, all this newave fallout pop nonsense music is whats mainstream. love this though, very inspiring

[keeponblinking]

They're all great at their instruments, but whether its just a bad recording or something, i'm just not feelin this performance.

[Pizza300]

i am

[JKryanX]

sounds like shit to me

[THEAXEMANSLAIR]

Claypool is the best bass player I've ever seen other than that dude from Mudvayne, they shit all over flea.

[ieatmusic1]

Welcome to the house of fun :)

[AlexBurtonFilms]

yeah! finally! buckethead and claypool, together! best combo ever!

just add neil pert!

[skaman125]

YES!!! I'm loving the idea...

[TriangleSquares]

Bernie is one of the most underrated drummers ever

[sacredcow024]

Bernie aint the drummer dude

Keys, but underrated yes

[lsoprimus]

Unorthodox disonance is not for all but any good listener can hear the worth.This certainly is an audio freak out.

[brentster1]

not impressed. too be honest, i can't really believe that you call this music.. no offense to the artists, but it makes my brain hurt listening and watching. my respect for les drops as my respect for maynard did when he did puscifer(or however you spell it) this is not music. this is more what you would call noise. thank you ladies and gentlemen. good night.

[jirizary73]

You wouldn't know music if it walked up, ripped out your adams apple and spit it at you! You must have been pusified sometime in your past. Why dont you give brittney spears a try?

[brentster1]

well, teenybopper, if you think so.  but why don't you ask the poster of the video. he'll tell you i know far more about music than you ever will. aside from being a musician and a former disc jockey, my five year old has more taste than you. why don't you try sucking dick. bitch.

[jirizary73]

You obviously think very highly of yourself. So do most unaware assholes. So somebody else is supposed to vouch for you, why would I take their word? I'm sure you know more about sucking dick than anyone but your taste in music is probably gay. Why don't you explain what is music or do you just make pointless statements? Just like 90% of all music. Maybe you'd like tim mcgraw or somthing.

[Hellaqwik]

So who plays impressive music?

[brentster1]

well for starters, primus does. nothing against the artists, just not impressed with the sound. guess it's the whole deviating too far from the original sound thing. i guess i just need to be a little more fucked up when i'm watching. sure it sounds great when you're tripping or drunk. but if it only sounds good when you're fucked up then it loses some appeal when you're sober. no?

[skaman125]

wow man.... one buckethead is one of the most amazing guitarist out there.... les claypool.... well there is no way to clealy define him in any way... and bernie worrell has been one of the most phenomenal keyboard players there ever was... and you say it's just noise?!?! well i guess you need a better sense of musical appreciation to like this ultimate combination.....

[brentster1]

well, they say opinions are like assholes. and this is only mine. at least i payed respect to the artists. just give them less for presentation. and yes, those are all just your opinions, just like mine is mine. so go ahead and suck their dicks some more.

[Pizza300]

well you suck alot less than Primus... not that big of an acheivment...

[tippmannman11]

if you don't understand the Primus Sucks reference then you do suck....

[Pizza300]

what do you mean? i was saying he sucked less than Primus. Primus sucks= primus rocks. and if you suck a lot LESS than Primus you really suck

[DisgustipatedUlaji]

Les is the whole reason I play bass, and yes, what a fucking monster that rainbow is! Skerek and Buckethead were awesome. Hope to see something like that this All Good.

[travASS13]

perfect thing to watch when ur drinkin

[zerkzy842]

terifficly weird and wonderfull

[MnkyNoTrxn]

Dig Bernie on the tiny ass keyboard.

[baconboye]

thank you colonel claypool

[baconboye]

what the fuck, this is fuckin amazing, i gotta go.

[Kirleyhair]

This is a freakshow of the best musicians in the world

[nimnestl]

Spectacular!

[SILOSPACCIAMATO]

Les Claypool, Buckethead e Gabby La La.. cavolo cosa avrei dato per essere a quel concerto..

[skaman125]

FREAKIN MIND BLOWING!!!!.....

especially the guitar/sax battle..... epic....

[petar1987]

this song is called "The big eyeball in the sky"

[k0rn26er]

whats this song called?

[joeyoisjdoijet]

i like that keyboard guy

[5niper22]

Buckethead sticks out like a sore thumb with any other band. But, He fits in pretty good there.

[GMONY5]

Claypool is so cold wit that 6 string fretless he's playing.

[BuddyWillis]

gotta luv that rainbow bass, so fucking cool

[sashacooper]

this is what happens when wierd Al and Parliament start hangin'

[dodisman]

its like Funky D-n-B

[cullen21stcenturey]

I say les and the fancy band in houston, but without keys, the zyphir thing, or anyone on guitar. just him, drums, sax & xylophone/percussion. just with that it was IMPOSSIBLE not to dance to. the sax was WICKED too.

[virminlord]

Wow. I like this stuff better than Primus. And thats saying something.
