    Obviously everyone rightfully talks about Les being a boss at bass but honestly Ler is insanely talented at guitar too.

    This is the video that got me into Primus. I was reminiscing some songs I would play on guitar hero as a kid and forgot about this song. Looked up the live version cause I always loved that guitar riff (my friends always hated this song). Seeing these guys killing it in 2011 and look absolutely badass...I needed more. Then my Primus music video binging spree began and I've been hooked for the last 4 years still listening to primus weekly if not daily. This live video had a huge impact on me and I want to thank the uploader. By far my favorite band.

    1:52 How can he keep his left thumb so still on the neck even when he is moving his fretting hand to play the power chords? My left hand seems too rigid and small to do that. This man's a living wonder in every detail.

    • @101Volts
      @101Volts 9 лет назад +2

      +Young Seok Do I was about to say I can do the same thing but then I saw his thumb stayed vertical. I tried doing it and I'm sure I can still do it - on a _guitar_ - but right now? Although I did try it and managed to keep my thumb on the same spot it rotated as I moved my hand up the fretboard.

    • @righteousdingo35
      @righteousdingo35 8 лет назад +22

      I actually used to have a friend that did this. He was a singer as well as a bassist. If you notice, he's not looking while he's playing, keeping his thumb in that spots makes sure he doesn't leave the root note. Its hard as hell but necessity will make you work for it. Like I said, it was another bassist/vocalist that I had seen do this.

    No, Brain wasn't the original. Jay Lane, this drummer here, was their original. However, most people don't know it because they didn't record anything early on. The next drummer was Tim Alexander until Tales From the Punch Bowl. Then from there it was Brain for some time, then back to Tim again, and now its Jay again.
