John the Fisherman (Live)

[lukaduke]

les has so many looks tbf lol... primus sucks

[RussianMindControl]

claypool is the coolest nerd alive. and the best bass player alive.

[makattak88]

whammy bar on bass??!?! unheard of. of course les would think of coolness such as that.

[Kibbles113]

Woa! this video is way old!

[helloimmejack]

theyre all realy great musicians

[grizzleybear12]

How does this guy play these nice riffs and sing at the same time?

[AntonTheGreatNr1]

must be hard to play bass and sing at the same time?

[CosaNostraDeSantis5]

YES it is! I learned this song on bass, its hard to sing this at the same time. Les sings this completly out of rhythm with his bass playing

[godalmighty12r]

les claypool is a fuckig god. he is very odd but a god the same

[duhs8878]

very odd extremely odd but yeah thats true he is a god

[pattnich]

of course it sounds strange tard...all their songs do!

[eruption1978vht2]

He's got a whammy bar on his bass, awesome.

[connorddg]

go primus. though jerry was a race car driver sounds kind of strange

[fattyJNL]

needs more base

[jun19020987]

lol!

[CzarSoccer]

Primus fans are awesome

[pittsteel9]

I know primus kicks ass but they are probably one of the most underated bands ever but i think they are better than that

[scimitar255]

Wow this band is fucking great live. I'm not even a primus fan. This is the only song i know by them.

[york124]

this is there worst song

[kenzman8]

they sound great

[4degrees]

Axl Rose is really the only bad part of GnR....he has NO voice at all...seriously...listen to what he is really doing.

Block out all of the instruments and JUST focus on the voice...Axl sucks. He is really really bad and has no range at all...

[dylza12345]

A Bad Voice does not sell 40 Million Albums Mate

[4degrees]

No but a major label shoving it down people's throats on MTV and radios does.

[dylza12345]

Hmm Partially True but alot of People Enjoyed their Music. Just because one member of the band is bad Doesnt mean the Band is Actually Band...

You got out and Find me a Band where all Band Members are perfect and theve kept all members in the band from start to Finish

[6sic6slipknot]

I love Les Claypool (best bassist ever) and Lerry LaLonde (one of the coolest guitarists) and Brain isnt even close to as good as Herb, but i still like him.

lol oh and btw i can play the beat to John the Fisherman on the drums and Brian Mantia cant. lol haha that sucks for him

[chriscoooley]

primus is so weird, they kick ass

[Sideoftheham]

Crowd is small...

[6sic6slipknot]

ok what the fuck.... who is this drummer? he is not playin what is meant for this song.... btw PRIMUS FUCKIN SUCKS!!!!! HELLS YAH

[Drratburn]

He is Brain, the SHITTY replacement for Herb when he quit, but it's o.k. they kicked Brain out and Herb is the drummer now.

[6sic6slipknot]

yah, but too bad Primus isnt together anymore. yah Brain sucks ass Herb is wayyyyyyy better.

Tim Alexander fuckin RULES!!

[Drratburn]

actually I got some good news, alot of sources have stated that after Les finishes his current tour, it's back to the recording studio for Primus, Herb decided to join back up.

[6sic6slipknot]

OMG ARE YOU SERIOUS??? I can NOT wait. I love Primus and I was soo pissed that they broke up. I can't wait till they make another CD. Good thing Tim's gonna be the drummer. I mean Brain is kinda good like in Shake Hands With Beef, but Herb is way fuckin better (like the beat in John the Fisherman)

did you know that Brain was in Guns and Roses? Brian (Brain) Mantia or w/e. he used to be the drummer for Guns and Roses

[Drratburn]

Same here, I can't wait to hear the tracks they write for the new CD, however I HATE both Brain and Guns and Roses. You have a Screen name?

[6sic6slipknot]

hey man, you shouldnt hate Guns N' Roses. they are a great band, but the only thing i hate about them is that Slash is too popular and hes really overrated. screenname on what?

my yahoo name is maggot_666_2007

my myspace url is myspacedotcom/brandon___boyd

[Drratburn]

Well I agree, Slash is way too popular and over-rated, when Buckethead joined G'N'R I thought good things would come, but buckethead already quit so idk.

[desertstormtrooper]

Axl is the only thing to remain the same of G'N'R, Duff, Matt, and Slash all created a new band called "Velvet Revolver" with Scott Weiland from Stone Temple Pilots. Velvet Revolver is touring with Alice N Chains, G'N'R is... losing money, FAST. Now, who made the difference and made G'N'R HUGE? Axl? Probably not. No, not probably not, Definately not.

[mrshepstone]

Primus Rocks!!!

[CYBERBBJB2112]

BAD SINGING

[Drratburn]

it's supposed to be odd like that dumb-fuck.

[vo1x]

i love primus, like, no other band has the basist, as lead vocals!

[tgrendell]

the police.

[Paragons7]

Rush?

[Munki6]

i can name a few....The Police....Mastodon...and many more

[rectumwart]

zyklon does. sachdamon plays bass and vocals. quite good i might add

[flipstairs]

i wish my name was jon

[Angus666Young]

waavy is a dumb fucker, they're music is good and i like the vocals, by the way, if thats how you think a dick looks maybe you should pull one out of your mouth for a second and take a look.

[mikelord666]

i dont like the drummer too much he really doesn't do to much like the orginal song

[pokeralien]

I love primus really but when start the rock guys realize that this marshall eqiupment is shit so much better stuff out there since 1990

[waavy]

The drummer is fucking useless

Guitarist was taught by joe satriani

Les Claypool best bassist in the world

and they waste there talent on this gay shit band, fucked up music, fucked up vocals honestly claypool should just stick to bass cuz he sounds like he has a dick up his nose, not to mention that his bass also looks like a dick

[fryBASS]

wow... just wow...

[mustplaylouder]

haha... ur prob an untalented fucking piece of shit that only talks shit about other ppl... primus is one of the most influential bands in rock... go fuck yourself

[flakcannonnick]

dude, go fuck yourself. seriously. this is a unique style, he doesn't try to sing like everyone else and it's off the beat. but this is still one of the best bands in rock and les claypool is one of the greatest musicians around. and if you don't like it, then don't fucking listen.

[yobot462]

I think his vocals are different, in a good way. The music sounds good and funky. Les's bass puts a funkier hit to it. John the Fisherman is a song anyone can jam out to. Who cares who the guitarist was taught by? He played it. Listen to and enjoy it...

[eddiemoon]

WHOs the drummer?...hes not doing all the things on the original song

[jpe05]

That's Brain. He's nowhere near as good as Herb.

[Landkrappen]

Primus sucks!,

[yargum69]

PRIMUS SUCKS!

[ten1395186]

claypool ownz on the bass and if u don't agree gooo kill ur self

[bityfart]

dude my name is john fisher

[bobbyflay]

i understand why ppl dont like primus,theyre really weird. but i fucken love primus,and i love this song

[fatcatbuzz]

Can you believe that Blender magizine ranked these guys 22nd "Worst Band Ever"?

[bobbyflay]

no,thats homosexual

[guitariffz83]

When people say "Primus Sucks!" it means they think the band rocks. Bitch.

[tylerdirtbike45]

JUST A MESSAGE TO ALBERTWESKER666: I am a fan of both Primus and Green Day. Most people are stupid enough to judge Green Day based on their poppier songs(Wake me up when september ends). But in fact, if anyone has actually LISTENED to the goddamn album, you would notice that most of the tracks (such as St.Jimmy)couldn't be more punk rock. You are entitled to your own opinion, but please do your fucking homework on a band before you judge them, you little prick.

[dimwad420]

green day sucks balls

[fatcatbuzz]

Green Day does suck. What an overrater band. Them and The White Strips. That girl can barely play the fucking drum. I play better drums picking my ass.

[tylerdirtbike45]

i know

[ghosty1569]

fuck u bitches, they own fuckers

[architectx]

primus fuckin rules you little faggots, are just faggots haha like true faggots mega faggots made of faggoty faggots FAG FAG FAG YOUR FAGS ALL OF YOU FAGGITY FAGGY FAG FAGS FAG YOU FAGGOT

[slipknotmaggot14]

dude frickin john the fisherman and jerry was a racecar driver... PRIMUS SUCKS!!!

[necroaeon]

Primus Sucks!!! lol

[gnomehunter1234]

Primus sucks!!!

Les claypool is a god!

[webwjfvbjcbjkvg]

Good song...when was this?

[wespac]

primus sucks.

[voodoochild138]

lol y dosnt ne1 relize when ppl say primus sucks thats not really sayin they suck its funny ho wu all get defensive over that

[samwhiskey]

i guess no one understands that when you say PRIMUS SUCKS, your actually saying that you are a original fan of Primus, that is the bands motto, hell its their website url. so let me just say...PRIMUS SUCKS!!!

[deadsoul3]

primus IS awsome. and if you think they suck, write a better song. i DARE ya.

[Panterapwnsj00]

I dare ya to do your Primus homework.

[franzypants1005]

Primus sucks means that ur an actual fan of them

[AlbertWesker666]

If thats the case, then Primus sucks more than Green Day...and they actually suck...literally...they're terrible.

[Panterapwnsj00]

terrible?Wtf, you need death.

[Chadner]

LOL, this was amusing uauahuahua

[kilmac]

i agree with neukball. primus are different from other bands and their not afraid to play what they like not what everyone wants thats one of the reasons that primus RULE!!

[neukbal]

one of the best bands ever! who agrees

[zaster234]

i agree

[barbedwirebat111]

PRIMUS SUCKS!!! =]

[neukbal]

and you suck dick,you fucking faggot

[barbedwirebat111]

bitch! a real primus fan would know what that meant. go to their fucking website retard.

[brodiemanbassdude]

I would consider myself a kickass bassist if i could play like les. hurray for guitar hero2 for introducing me to primus

[bassbreaker]

Crazy funk n rock with a bit of a hip hop feel to this song... i luv it so much... a great song by them heck most of the songs by them are insane... les claypool one of the greastest bassists in the world

[Lestat5588]

Brian sucks at the drums period. Tim was Primus' best drummer

[alprobe]

man brains got nicer groove, tims like a human metronome, plus tims solos blow compared to brains

[thebestbassist]

les kinda sings flat, but still an awesome version!

Primus Sucks!

[fryBASS]

oh man, that bass intro is badass. better than the album version.

[themonkeybuttster]

yeah brains a good drummer, but he dumbs down Tim's parts alot and makes them simpler...

[iloveasiangirls]

brain's good, but he's just too aggressive to do herb's stuff.

[olicc]

Brain is a fine drummer, but its not easy to fill Alexander's shoes. I saw Tim at a clinic at the Guitar Center in Hollywood and his parts are even more complicated than they come across. To learn what he is/was actually doing blows my mind. He claimed to have had no life as a kid and had nothing to do but drum all day. Well it shows. He's defiantly in my top drummers of all time list with Buddy, Weckl, and the other greats.

[sonnetg]

stop posting crap like this!!

[robotocha242]

primus are probably the best band in the universe

claypool - not from this solar system thats for sure

ler - worlds most underrated guitarist

herb - one of the best drummers ive ever seen (even though he aint in this vid...)

[Raaaaaaaaage]

aint isn't a word.

but this video is so awesome. haha i watch it like everday.

the only thing i don't like is brain in this haha.

[jimbobfurrycat]

i think brains drumming's alot more expressive and he's got more attack than herb however i enjoy herbs drumming just as much as brains, it's just different.

[poopsun]

brain sucked on drums in this video

[Raaaaaaaaage]

indeed he did he can't do the bass drum part very well.

[ryu926]

he can't do any of Herb's stuff, brain is an ok drummer he wrote some good stuff, but he's not Herb. never was never will be

[maniacguitar]

yep, totally true.

[Raaaaaaaaage]

yeah but the stuff he is good at is the stuff he wrote.. not the stuff tim wrote.. oh and herb is now not tims nickname. :D just trying to feel ya in

[EvianBaby]

he looks so cool playing

[HollisBrown67]

Les Claypool for president
