Thanks for just being you and playing. I’ve seen too many of these where people think they have to act weird or dress weird because Primus is…weird. Good luck.

What a pro. And handsome too.

While a great deal of these videos seem like people just using the auditions as clickbait to promote their RUclips you appear to be genuinely looking to be part of a creative unit. I hope that Primus at least sees your work and that you are given the opportunity to discuss possible collaboration. Be it Primus, future musical projects or just each of you having yet more talented , good people join your sphere (which one can never have too many).

Dude, I was there at Woodstock in 94. Front row for Primus. The whole crowd was screaming "PRIMUS SUCKS! PRIMUS SUCKS!!". Every time I see that old video I can see my fat head sticking out of the crowd. Drove all the way from North Carolina with no tickets. Made it through the roadblocks by telling the cops who stopped us and asked us for tickets that the people 3 cars ahead of us had our tickets and they let us by. We parked and camped in the Jamesway (maybe it was "Safeway") grocery store parking lot right outside the festival. I can still hear Candlebox, who was playing when we parked our car and got out after a spontaneous 900-mile road trip. To get in we bought a flashlight and a 50lbs Hemp weed bag (Empty of course) from a guy for 25 bucks and he let us through the fence in his backyard to where the tents were. Had the best time. Metallica (I still say that wasn't Kirk). 9IN. Greenday, Allman Brothers, RHCP, Aerosmith, Mud, weed, beer, and titties...covered in mud...and beer...and more titties. One of my best memories growing up.

If it doesn't work out with Primus, you're welcome to join my Dad Band (of one. It's just me. Playing Led Zep songs over and over and over and over and over and...)

A great performance Greg! Definitely a great pick Primus!

Super solid and creative!

Great drummer and an even better guy! Vote for Greg!

I believe this is primus new drum daddy as long as the hedgehog doesn't see his shadow on new years eve 🎉

Great playing package and production... Ultra impressive at getting few girls to attend a rush tribute show

You are a very good drummer. The only issue is that you are still too over the top on the original music you’ve played. Tone it down and eventually you can become one of the greats.

Knowing RUSH songs is definitely a plus . Good luck. You seem like a natural fit.

You got my pick! Beauty! Solid,Tight, Creative! Cheers!;-)!

Impressive. Hope you get it but don't want your tribute project to die, your guitarist nailed that Alex solo at the end. Good stuff..

This audition is the only one that I have watched that has given me goose bumps. Awesome job Man!

Killer playing. You could honestly play in a better band than Primus....they are cool but their music doesn't have a lot of replay value for me. I find them actually overrated. The writing is just...I dunno....mediocre? Sailing The Seas of Cheese was quite good. A band that I find underrated but infinitely more interesting and way deeper: Cardiacs. Good luck brother.

This is a top contender type of video. Intros, descriptions, examples of Primus and other stuff, and not overdone - right to the point.

If you don't get the job I'd be very surprised.. best of luck 🤞

I’ve got a shit ton of Primus shows under my belt. It’s really strange to wanna pay for some random dude to play the instrument I love Primus for… but I dig this guy so far.

Greg is a great dude. The talent is endless. Lets gooooo

This and a few others def have my vote. Dude is a killer player no doubt. And he seems like he would fit the primus crew

Wow! So good

This is best democrats video yet and I liked alot

Wow! I’ve watched a few of the Primus Audition videos and I’m quite impressed by all of them, but YOU certainly have my vote! Very impressive drumming and personally. (Les, if you’re watching.) 😊

A whole lotta talking, and no good drumming. Boooo. You suck

I think we have a winner...

He gets my vote. A chill Dude

That live jam at the end was awesome!

So good and versatile man, love your audition!!! Love what you do playing Jerry was a race car driver loop, so so good!

I really enjoyed your perspective on the audition and wish you the best of luck!

Great work, Greg! PRIMUS... This is your guy! An outstanding, well-versed drummer, multi-instrumental talent, mad visual effects skills, industry awareness, and seems like an all-around great guy who exudes positivity!

Absolutely this guy!

I do not envy the members and staff of Primus choosing their new pick, I have seen so many amazing talented drummers out there, Greg Russell has a very special advantage with his experience in the overall industry. Les and Larry, ,,, this is your drummer, let's go!!!🤘

Damn, does this guy ever run out of ideas?

Yeah, you got this dude. Nicely played.

This is THE GUY!

You stand alone as the best choice in my book! Good luck!

Awesome! I hope you get the job dude!

Dang Greg, you are the real deal! Best of luck man!

Good video. Heck of a resume’. Nice chops. Hope I can see you in Natural Science some day soon. You all come to Portland, OR ever?

Hope you get some good news! That was a really good audition video.

So far I only watched two videos for the Primus audition. After watching this video I have come to the conclusion that I would not have to waste anymore time watching these video auditions. Awesome performance!

@primus

This is good

❤❤❤

Its going be someone like you to get the job... I havent said this to anyone because they aint cutting it so here you go... Good luck buddy you did it right

Superb, and Alex would be stoked by the guitar player in your tribute group

amen boss, you rock

Almost every audition video I've watched is people playing along to Primus tunes, nothing more. This guy took it to a new level showing more of his diverse technique. So far he's got my vote to take over the throne for the band.

I love that jam, but on loop, i might of just had a small stroke 👽
