Hitler wouldn't have killed himself if he had sweet bass lines punchin him in the ear like this.

They were quite fashion forward in 1938--right down to the mass-produced Great Depression Halloween costumes. My Nana used to work in a sweatshop making those. They would pay her in Halloween candy. Not the good stuff like Reese's Pieces and Snickers, though. She'd only get the C-level crap like raisins and Dum-Dums. She did appreciate the pennies, though. After all, it was the Great Depression...

True story.
My Granny's yard gnome said that back in the 1930s, people were so poor, the only way Les was able to afford an instrument was to build it himself w/ the aid of frogs. Sadly, the process by which Les and the frogs built his bass was so tiring that he was quite hungry afterwards. Luckily, there were all these frogs around so Les chopped their legs off for food... but in a nice way. He gave them crutches and everything. Man, those Great Depression/WWII years musta been tough.

Actually Les Claypool was killed in a bombing raid in 1941, so that cannot be. But it is true that he did play for high ranking ss officers on a regular basis.
