I bet the crowd didnt know what to make of this. Les Claypool's genius is overwhelming to normal people

[justinlawesome]

i think chuck norris jokes should now be about les claypool

No one can replace the three of them, just like rush. Not very many band like this.

@thpriest15 yeah "Les cant sing" in the same way people say Ozzy cant sing, just because he has a unique voice and unique singing style doesnt make his singing not as good as other people. I would much rather listen to Les Singing than any of those autotuned talentless hacks form american Idol.

@BOnEhEAdD Brain does not hold a candle to Herb. he's a great drummer though.

i was still able to rub one out to this video....

@murderingprophet lo Brain not good enough for u? Sad story :/

[murderingprophet]

This band went down hill when Herb Alexander left. The other drummers couldn't hold a candle to Herb.

@KurdtKobain09 Les really can't sing, in all of his nasal-ly might. The quirky story-telling compensates for that.

What I love about primus is, that Les plays both rythem and bass at the same time and it sounds fucking amazing.

[SGTMcCmuffin]

GENIUS!!! PURE, TOTAL GENIUS!!!

I love how Les has a feeling of a " I just let the sounds flow and it sounds cool" philosophy whereas more technical players (Wooten?) seem to stay up all night wondering whether they should explore a myxolidian flavour over their stylings in the key of A minor to enhance the character of their compositions and etc. I like them all but this is just so unpretentious.. Wear a cool hat and slap the jesus out of that bass, enjoy yourselves, the end.
