Primus just covered 'Behind My Camel'!!!!!!

[GinaSuperCat]

Seriously, one of the top shows I've seem...amazing!!! I haven't stopped listening to Primus since...

Bets, here's the quote I mentioned (Jam Base Interview where he rips on elitist jazz, ca 2006)

"Well that's true, but that's just Les Claypool wearing his street clothes. That's the real Les Claypool, he's a special case. One of the greatest men on the planet. He should be president. One of the craziest yet most sensible people I know. He's the most practical wacko I've ever met."

That about sums it up.
Thanks, G.

I'm still listening to them too. CAN'T STOP!!! I'm really trying not to check out their tour schedule to scramble for more dates and just be happy with what I have.

I edited this like 10 times trying to figure out how to embed shit and I'm an idiot... can't figure it out.

Somebody lemme know if Les needs a campaign manager

It really WAS a great show. My only complaint is that the mix was a bit muddier than normal for the Ryman - really couldn't hear the guitar or the vocals. But, what the hell. You could hear the bass!!

Plans were made this weekend for the eventual road trip for Oysterhead, when it happens. Note I said "when."

[GinaSuperCat]

WHEN Oysterhead tours (love that) I will add, in the spirit of Ken Kesey, you are either On The Bus or Off The Bus <grin>

[policerule]

I'm on the freakin' bus!! Reservation confirmed.

I'll believe it when I see it but if this is true, I'm gonna freak:

Now that Primus’ first headlining tour in four years is well underway, playing to rapturous fans across the country, the band is pleased to offer a handful of tracks from tour rehearsals at Primus HQ in San Rafael, CA, earlier this summer. Turns out the tapes came out great and Les, Ler and Jay thought it would be fun to share them with their fans. The band plans to head into the studio soon to record their first album since 1999.

Les Claypool said, “I haven’t rehearsed a band this hard since Frog Brigade decided to perform Pink Floyd’s epic Animals album. Having Jay back in the band has rejuvenated our excitement for Primus and being that he is one of my favorite drummers in the world, the music that is coming out of us is beyond anything we’ve ever done before. It’s like ‘sultry-acid-space-rock’.”
