@@maximuswallace2259 "Ler", not "Les"...............and yes, Larry Lalonde, AKA Ler, is a guitarist, and a great one 🤦♂️. Not a real Primus fan, are you?
I heard Chris Sqire, the great bass player from YES about 5 months before he died being involved in a short interview with BBC. They asked him who he thought was the greatest bass player ever. He said he used to believe it was John Entwistle of The Who. But he emphatically stated but now no question Les Claypool of Primus. He passed away from leukemia 5 months later.
Brain joined the group for Brown Album, Rhinoplasty, and Antipop, then Tim "Herb" Alexander joined back up. Although they have occasionally toured with original Primus drummer Jay Lane. He played in the 2010 Oddity Faire tour, and a few others. He is also insanely good. His hi-hat game is sick as hell.
One of the Ler-led tracks, and honestly one of the lowkey greatest Primus songs. EDIT: Les dressed 100% like one of the guys Stalin would've had airbrushed out of photos back in the 30's.
I just ran across this, and I agree with you. Have seen Primus (& Les’s other projects) several times, live. Was lucky enough to catch them on the Seas of Cheese Tour, at DHR Constitution Hall. It was near the end of the tour, and they really took this one out for a walk. Other than Southbound Pachyderm, I think it’s their best jam vehicle.
@@cleech74 I can relate. Saw them in Montréal, same tour. Still think it was the best night of my life and American Life was certainly a highlight of the show!
@@connosaurus That’s awesome. Les always gives the fans a helluva show. He’s one of those artists that keeps himself busy by branching out and playing in several different projects. Primus, Sausage, Fancy Band, Oysterhead, C2B3, etc.
Seems as if age has made them better in some weird way. I hope I get an opportunity to see them when they tour again (hoping for later this year but you know how that goes these days)
7 Primus concerts under my belt since 1992, and it's still my favorite band, been a fan since i was 14, now 45, ive never swayed, I'm so happy at the fan base they've achieved when i first started listening no one hardly knew them now this generation has embraced them world wide, im proud to be a veteran, my 1st concert they opened up for U2, only 3 songs Played but one of my most cherished memories when i saw them for the first time, opened up with blue collared tweekers! I heard later Les walked the crowd and no one recognized him. This is one of the most original bands ever, I always love to shout "YOU SUCK,YOU SUCK,YOU SUCK! before a show!
Primus was my first concert as an adolescent. I had already been a fan for a couple years. Then I got to see them in Syracuse, New York 2012. Blew both mine and my dads minds.
I’ve been lucky enough to see Primus twice. I absolutely love them. Les is a super underrated bassist and singer. Incredible. Wish more people knew their brilliance.

This is "playing music". Glad this came out publicly. I've heard the made for studio version hundreds of times. This sounds a lot more enjoyable for the band.
Pay for it you cheap prick. It was a ticketed event so the band can afford to live, it's primus not the rolling stones, they can't afford to get ripped off by their own fans
@@gamandstuff1048 From what I see, it WAS a ticketed event. Now what? How would one that wasn't aware of it happening at the time purchase it now? Can you post a link where it can be purchased? I can't find anywhere to buy the show. If it isn't available for purchase anymore, how in the actual fuck would the band be getting ripped off by fans sharing it? I've already have it downloaded, but if you will post a link to a place where it can be officially bought and downloaded, I will go give them my a pile of my hard earned dollhairs right goddamn now. Primus sucks!
@@deluth4638 any of the internet and promising more difficult to be a purist and not see anything that you don't pay for I mean come on who hasn't looked up a live performance from the 90s and wish that they were there. Yeah this was a close show but I paid for it and as long as I'm not profiting from it I think I'm allowed to share it like my channel is not monetized it's not like I'm making a buck off sharing Primus. I'm a more recent fan and am amazed by how good they are live and instrumentally
Well Primus have been around with tunes like Sgt Baker and Too Many Puppies since 1985ish and Herb and Ler joined 89/88 so as far as studio stuff goes this is the OG
Don’t waste your time, just when you think you get to learn about Bob, the song is cut off. 😂 don’t tell the guy who posted this though, he is very sensitive and will think the world revolves around you 🤷♂️🤘

Ler is one of the most criminally underrated guitarists ever.
Yup. The Andy Sommers of the 90s
100%
I've been trying to tell everyone the same
"Guitarist"

Primus is old but they sure as hell still got it.
they age like good cheese or fine wine.
They still suck
@@Tomversal they never did
@@Corneja666
Yeah I know, just the whole Primus Suck thingy, Primus are awesome!
@@MH-kw4ue Yeah, Les is almost 60.
One of the greatest and most unique bands of all time.
Les has the uncanny ability to come up with vocal melodies that sound instantly familiar. Oh, and his bass playing is insanely good.
god* insanely hes a god* along w all the other underrated memeber of this power trio
Your nuts . he cannot sing. Awesome bass player but not a vocalist. Just a weirdo
It's amazing how close to the original recording this is. I mean what the hell. This song came out more than 20 years ago.
loads of time to practice it haha
30
30 years, my friend, 30 years ago, ouch, big kick in my face
Pretty sure Les said something once about only replacing his gear if it breaks, that might be why
This was my favorite band when I was 15 and it’s my favorite band at 47

He said he used to believe it was John Entwistle of The Who. But he emphatically stated but now no question Les Claypool of Primus. He passed away from leukemia 5 months later.
Rumour has it that was the same question St. Michael asked him at the pearly gates
Les sounds sharp enough to puncture the hull of an empire-class Fire Nation battle ship, leaving thousands to drown at sea.
I like the song played at 2x speed.
Them drums man.... tight af
The drummer is so clean and so good
@@ZackyDaley The drummer? It’s Tim Alexander.
@@4DramaticEffect yeah sorry Primus has been in my lexicon for a while but I haven't really become a huge fan until recently to my shame
Good ol' Herb Alexander ! I didn't recognize him
@@RicardoMontee Thank goodness we still have him. Very serious health problems several years ago.
so good to see herb with them again.
Yes, although he sometimes " replaced" the drummer after he left primus, he played on the 2004 tour for example
I dont know the other drummers name, know herb left after tales, and is back now for quiet a time

@@OnceAndFuturePrincess jay lane is really fucking good. sausage rules, and so does green naugahyde
@@OnceAndFuturePrincess not the original drummer, im pretty sure he was the th - 9th drummer in their line up
Thanks. Missed the covid show, this is 1st I've heard. Plus "American life" my favorite primus song, even though they still suck.
😂😂
Primus sucks!
Les doesn't like the suck thing, years ago they had a roadie come on stage saying it got old and less hated it
Two people i wanna fish with Les Claypool and Hank Williams Jr
Big facts 💚
Wow wow, seeing Les playing in live is better than just hearing him play
Best band ever! More talent than 10 bands.
Bass sounding like a snickers

This is tied with "carpenter and the dainty bride" for my #1 Primus track! Hope to see them live one day!!!
It was great seeing them this summer, 30 years since first live Primus show. Great version!
I saw them in Boston this summer. I can't emphasize how good it was from song selection to execution. They just keep getting better!
lalond still looks like he rode his skateboard to the gig
Ageless - like John Myung and Dick Clark
Love Les& Primus..so original..Blue Collar Tweekers,Jillies on Smack.☮👍
Seems as if age has made them better in some weird way. I hope I get an opportunity to see them when they tour again (hoping for later this year but you know how that goes these days)

I brought a ticket for this. I had a fun time. They played some Antipop songs which made me happy😂
Me too. It was great and I hope they do it again. I even bought the signed poster from this show.
God damn what I would give to just be right in the middle of this jam session
So good

This shit transends time . That's what we're talking bout
thanks baby for video
Les and his bass are just a merged organic amazing thing
This entire show was awesome
Tim is the most amazing drummer ever! Listen to his timing, he's just on a whole nother level.
timing? on a slow 4/4beat? lol
All you hear is a slow 4/4 beat? 😂

Live, Laugh, Primus
OMG...I had a dream about this way 4 ...I was this my mom init...the small gold bricks in her shag carpet...wow. know.
These are three legit wizards
The way Les is plucking...
It's nearly moving me to tears...
The middle jam was definitely inspired by It's a Beautiful Day 'Time is'. Give it a listen, 1960's madness....
Les Claypool is welcome in my boat any day! So looking forward to the 5.5 hour drive Oct 8th to see Primus in Milwaukee
I hope you guys make new music
Lar is fucking amazing!
Thank you!!!.....It's like Larry doesn't even exist......weird.....

Amazing ✌️🤘. Come back to Portland when you can please🌹🌹🌹
Yes Portland Oregon needs PRIMUS!!

what did you just do to the time space continuom! 🎉
Is this concert available to see in full somewhere?
Yeah, to people who paid for it ya cheeky freeloader
go on the primus subreddit, there's a handful of links
@@gamandstuff1048 Not everybody had the time to see it when it was happening.
@@piratexander where pls? Link?
@@gamandstuff1048 Not everyone was available to watch it at the time dude. No need to be rude.
So much fun!
Wicked timing
Sounds great
More Primus Zackery...Plis
I had some other videos and they got taken down that's why this one is kind of cut off so I apologize
Os caras na maior vibe!
Ler just stopped aging in the 90’s, and I’m pretty sure his hair is stuck at the same length
Els is #1
Hello everybody. I'm Les Claypool. I remember it so you don't have to.
Larry hasn't changed in 30 years
Fish on,my friends
Did U also know that LaLonde was the Original Guitarist for the Seminole Death Metal band
Possessed
Look that shit up Brothers
Where can I find the whole show? Need to have this.
They get taken down unfortunately copyright even primus
I unfortunately was stupid and recorded snippets of the show instead of the whole thing
Jeez best 3 piece since rush
Take a ride with the guitar 🎸
Is that Tim on the drums again? tight performance
Yep it's tim
@@redhotchilifan98 tim’s been back with the band since 2014

SO glad to see Herb back on the drums! Primus SUCKS!!
Fuck yeah
And Les and Lery and Herb are supersonic psihodelic flying
who's the drummer here? doesn't look like Herb or Brain.
It's herb Tim alexander
LEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!
Is that herb on the drums?
Nva mind I just had to listen a little further to know it really is
That is tasty in so many ways
rick harrison on drums...
Herb....herb the ginseng drummer.
Trio’s are always the best bands….uh, RUSH
He font have fret markers
Les often plays fretless bass too so he is well aware of where all the frets are without markers
les claypool is primus, I think he's the only original
Ler is original
@@MrMillions69 yes I know. I didn't realize that was him on guitar! thanks tho,
@CallMeTobin ler isn't original, Todd Huth is O.G.
😂 well technically I’d say Todd Huth and Jayski were original, Les is definitely the mad scientist.
Well Primus have been around with tunes like Sgt Baker and Too Many Puppies since 1985ish and Herb and Ler joined 89/88 so as far as studio stuff goes this is the OG
Ler looks like he's like 21
That's impossible

I love Primus, but I don't really like their solo intermezzos. Those mostly sounds uninventive compared to the song.
It sounds good on drugs
Great bass playing
Great sound
But
horrible vocals .
Les cannot sing.
They look old af
It's what happens when you age
Primus sucks
Primus sucks!!!
PRIMUS SUCKS!
Shame the drums sound crappy
The sound great idk what u smoking
Delete this and replace with the whole song please

Or change the title to 2/3 of American Life so nobody else has to wast their time.
