@Falonefal It reminds me of a performer I saw in the subway the other day---this person was homeless, had clearly found the guitar, and was playing random notes in the hopes of getting money (which I gave him because I felt badly for him). The guitar solo is off key and constitutes pure random shi*. Even the crappy cello solo ("hey look, i found an effect that makes this sound like a trumpet, listen to me play sixteenth notes!") was better.
@scla6986 interesting, insults are the only things that people throw around on here anymore, base ones at that. now what we both said are just opinions, nothing more. i was merely disagreeing with you because the comment was fairly stupid and i think MIRV is a great guitarist. if he wasnt, les probably wouldnt have played with him
@191601916 Mirv had a doctors appt just after this show to try and remove a log that got stuck up his butt but the doctors said "if we pull it out he will loose his body structure and be a pile of jelly on the floor." An hour later Claypool said "no pain no gain" and pulled it out himself just so he could rid himself of the worst musician he ever played with.
Yeah I see what your saying.....But I think Jack would hold his own with him.....Jack could play with him when he was playing Primus stuff, but any of his new solo or frog brigade doesnt even need guitar because he has so many different instruments going with his bass. Claypools songs are just like one BIG ORGASM
You really jus havent seen enough Jack White to comment on this I guess...I love Les dont get me wrong and yes he is the best bassist ever, but you are not giving any credit to Jack and what he has done in his career as a musician.....So we agree to disagree!!!!Either way Claypool is the MAN and maybe the funniest musician on stage when he start calling out idiot fans!
@VortexTrickster i suppose it would be able to but you would have to add in shifts... which would be confusing. and if you knew how to shift chances are you would be able to read music to some extent. i play cello btw. and have played in carnagie hall so... i know a bit about it.
@sociopathix Prince and Paco DeLucia couldn't read music, nough said, tabs are just as good (if not better for guitar because fingerings are already tabbed out) then notation, just because its new, doesn't mean its wrong ahhh good show
Les does look kinda bored but i think its cos of the glasses. Yeah the gee-tarrist looks like hes had 10 hits of good acid. BTW why does Les have a normal mic and a green bullet? Isnt it meant for like harmonica?
@superstriker00 I would if I had a drum set I had access to all the time. The guitar part wouldn't be too bad. I still can't play this on my bass though..... cello part ain't so bad.
they played a show at a place near my house a few months ago. but they didn't put up the signs or anything until a day before the show so I didn't know >:(
what demon do you have to fight to win a golden cello

Man your comment made my day
the part where les and the guitarist are just staring at each other is beastly
Mirv haggard
can't say i really enjoyed the guitar solo but i appreciate the experimentation it represents.
the cello, taking the role of the trumpet, was awesome.
this drummer doesn't get enough credit!
CLAYPOOL is THE ABSOLUTE BEST BASSIST on the ENTIRE PLANET!
am i the only one who thinks the guitar solo is a bit shite?
one thing I love about claypool concerts, you can always count on some crazy ass improv
this song with the cello rocks! the whole song is great anyway
lmao that guitarist looks like he had to take a major dump throughout that whole solo
Yes, yes
One might even say that they draw (liquid) into the mouth by movements of the tongue and lips that create suction or in layman's term - suck
i thought the guitar solo was alright
agreed, the whole band is expert
1:47 The cameraman dies, because he can't withstand the awesome power of Les Claypool.
les is the wine of bassists, only gets better with age, keep on jammin les!
I love the part of the cello solo from 3:41 to 4:26
the guitarist is ruining all the music with his solo...
You got the biggest balls in town? I have to see that.
what. is. he. wearing... HAHA that's the les i know
Did he fire the guitarist after this. I believe I would have, That was awful!
Uh you mean Mirv?
Watch Hendershot you ninny.
Huh? This was terrible.
Not Les, but the guitarist.
Yeah, that makes sense.
if you ask me, the guitarist was trippin balls
put down your guitar and NEVER play a solo again!!
There needs to be more songs with electric cellos...
solo on cello rules but on guitar sux.
if you have seen Les playing Live... you would knew ^^
whoa! what kinda pedal do you suppose they ran the cello through?! I'd love to give mine a spin on that frequency. Les for Prez!
that guitarist made it sound shit
guitar player was taking a poo
haha
Gotta love the badass beard scratching at 4:15
Wish the Cello and Guitar solo was longer :( they were awesome :D
This was the first Les Claypool song I ever heard
Good for you, a true baptism of fire.
whatever he is wearing on his head is fucking awesome

When they first started, I really thought to myself holy shit les clay pool joined the dave matthews band

The Master Of The Puppets intro at 7:28 made me smile :)

MIRV is an odd fellow and I agree definately not my favorite musician to see with Les but many props for the cello player Sam Bass
When I said This was the first Les Claypool song i ever heard I meant "one better" Not "Bonaroo 08 one better"
Primus Sucks!!!!
also lalonda primus's guitarist is amazing he's just shadowed by les because of how much of an anomolie he is in main stream music.
yooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
@sergio4266 this guy's 'solo' is a disgrace.. Though even as a fan of Morello, I sometimes find him a little annoying :P
@wrathchild368 Being able to read music actually doesn't have that much to do with knowledge of music theory as you'd think
@Brided23 this isnt a primus song, its one of les's other projects. its not ler's guitar solo, that was an improv by MIRV
it is possibly to tab cello, its just like any other stringed instrument, its quite frowned upon, but it can be done
It's just not the same without Skerik or all the extra percussion.
Still good, but definitely not it's full potential.
Les is a god.....Anything he touches turns to gold....I wish he would play with Jack White and see what happens!
@cooooook123 I don't own a bass but I love playing them... Hm... If only you lived in southern carolina. XD
was given/left to him by a friend (i think he was called sandman) who passed away.
hew uses it at most gigs
im pretty sure MIRV fucking up the solo was a joke
What is that little snippet Les works into the solo around 07:00 ? I've heard Vic Wooten use that too...
Seriously, don't feed these guys with any more coffee and sugar....Hi does not describe their state....
it's a microphone Mark Sandman, one of Claypool's idols, always used, and Claypool was inspired by him
he's not exactly main stream but he has had singles and he's on more then like 3 highschoolers ipods.
Gringo Locooo toca fuera de liga....pero ta loco de remate and I like it!!!!
@rockkkkkk Does it matter? People play in their own different ways. Are you famous like M.I.R.V. ?
@scla6986 besides the fact that les has played with MIRV before and MIRV is an excellent guitarist
Listening to it again, it does sound like envelope, but signal sensitive rather than auto-timed.
yeah! i realized that after i listened to them back to back. the one with his broth on guitar?
this was awesome to see in person Love Les!
What town do you live in? I might travel and go see him. 'Cause I really DO need to see him
i saw claypool last night and was blown away by the cello player
@88Jacku88 its one better lol its just he does it different than the studio album live
@cooooook123 I'' learn the guitar and drums, and we shall have a band going there bro.
@VortexTrickster well said. more to the point, how do you tab a fretless instrument?
i rofled so hard at 6:18 xD
go les claypool, and the weird guitar lookin guy! lol
I don't like his voice too much but his bass playing is insane!!
he is awesome =)
its a harmonica microphone, it gives that old bluesy kinda vintage 30s microphone
7 mins 10 seconds - Mike Seaver has clearly found his jam
I'm going to get Les tattooed on me with his pig mask from bonnaroo 2008. BONG!
@VortexTrickster Being a better musician has little to do with reading notes.
How many mics do you want Les?
Both
whoa whoa whoa, Les has got a new one coming out? when is this happening?
ha same here.
you should watch all his bonnaroo 08 vids theyre all great
Just remember they are in fact a jam band soloing is what they do best
@MrGnomemeat it was kind of rhetoric lol, but thanks all the same ;)
what song is that riff from at 6:54
I saw victor wooten play it too
someone can tell me, plis , what kind of pedals les clayppol use ?
@brynnheyes It almost sounds like he's got an octave pedal going.
on the album isnt it skerik who plays the chello part but on sax?
he doesnt need to sign good the bass does all the talking for him
i was expecting the guitarists head to explode at any second
this song sounds like it should be in beavis and butthead.
i liked les claypool better when he didn't have long hair.
am i only that gets a headache from MIRV's terrible solos?
i reckon its a plastic
elvis presley haircut
lolz :P
auto-wah, but for a bass it's called an envelope filter.
its not, its jsut a 4 string CT bass, hes had it forever
Well, not always used. For the last decade or so, yes.
hahaha he even busts out "that fat ass metallica lick"
Claypool y sus amigotes son lo mejor rajado, para que aprendan!
I smoked with him back in '03 or '04, super cool dude
what the hell is that guitarist doing in the solo...
the guitarist's expression, or lack or, is hilarious
@Numlocq It's the no talent homage to Tom Morrello
