When I was in my teens, I went to more than 50 Primus concerts. They were some of the best experiences of my young life. The mosh pits were the most positive, polite, and safe that I've ever been in. If someone fell, there were 10 hands lifting you back up instantly. The best show I ever attended was Primus, The Pixies, and Jane's Addiction. These guys create such an excellent vibe for their fans, and are beyond talented. It was a true pleasure seeing this reaction video with you guys.
@@marksherrick Maybe Les II was named after Leslie then? Perhaps Ed Dawson's role wasn't that great of an achievement, after all? And then you find, that you really gotta set your tomcat for a success. But poor T.L. paid the price.
Jamel, Primus is on tour now doing the full album of Rush's "Farewll to Kings". Primus is another great trio, this time the mad scientist is behind the bass.

Not sure if I already told u this Jamel, but when I lived in SF I was friends with Les. And I'm still here to say Les is more. Sorry bad pun for a magnificent human 💜
Thank you for introducing folks to Primus! I LOVE when their heads start bobbing! lol. Ive been listening to this song since the 90's, and I still have a hard time keeping up with the words. Les is a genius to sing AND play the bass at the same time
Every member of this band is just amazing at their craft. Those triples the drummer is running on the ride cymbal just impress the hell out of me every time I hear ‘em.
I just went to see Primus love last week. They are playing A Farewell to Kings from Rush in it's entirety. Knowing what a fan of Rush and Les Claypool. I know you would love the show. And they are going to be back in Cali late June.
Fun fact: Primus is in Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey in the battle of the bands playing this song. It's been on my playlist ever since (by that I mean mixed tape then burned CD and now actual playlist) :)
Jamel it makes me so happy to see you getting Primus....they are very different but the 3 guys make some amazing music maybe not everyone's taste....great reaction Jamel❤❤ smile it's contagious😊😊
My first time seeing Primus live was the Chicago show on their 2004 Hallucino-Genetics Tour DVD. Towards the end, I'm the one holding up the "Les Claypool For President" sticker! To this day, that sticker is still on its original paper backing, and kept in the case of my copy of that DVD!
Anyone else feel that Larry Lalonde is highly overshadowed by Les? Les is an amazing bassist but I don’t think people realize how instrumental Larry is to the sound of Primus. He’s a very underrated guitar player. Larry really does deserve more credit
PRIMUS HAVE ALWAYS REMIND ME OF THE RED HOT CHILLI PEPPERS IN THEIR OWN BOTH WAY THEY HAVE FUNK MUSICALITY SIMILARLY THANKS PRIMO Day & JAMEL_AKA_JAMAL ✌🏼& LO💚E MY BROTHER
The first show I ever saw Primus at, was them opening for The Red Hot Chili Peppers! It was beyond legendary. I knew how lucky I was, but I sort of had no idea how lucky I was.
Too bad you didn't go to Hartland highschool in Hartland MI from 1992-96, all we listened to was Primus! A lot of other bands too actually lol, but definitely LOTS of Primus 😁 Hartland is technically a village. It's amazing what you can find when you live in a village amongst dirt roads and cornfields...it's a whole new level of boredom you have to experience to understand lol. Somehow we managed to find Primus...we had some small towns around us with record stores and as soon as we got licenses we went straight there since that was where the culture was. While we loved our parents classic rock, we also loved hearing the new music of the day: Pantera, Rage Against the Machine, NOFX, Nirvana, etc. I can't even begin to list the new music coming out at that time that was and still is amazing...but I can tell you it was fun AF 😁😅👍😈😉 Lucky for us we had bigger cities like Detroit about an hour away where we could see great punk bands for cheap. It was awesome!!! Bigger venues like Vans Warped Tour came through cities like Pontiac too, again about 40 mins to an hour outside Hartland so we got to experience some fun shows during and after highschool. You can still catch catch some great punk shows in Detroit except all the bands I like are getting old with me lol...
I was at a Primus concert in the 90s. They hadn't hit arenas yet. In the middle of this song, someone threw a shoe onto the stage. Without missing a line, Claypool interrupted the lyrics to say "Hey, buddy, don't be throwin no shoes up on the stage." In cadence with the song. It was priceless.
Guitarist Larry LaLonde is another one, who like Steve Vai, Kirk Hammett (Metallica), and Alex Skolnick (Testament), took guitar lessons from Joe Satriani as a teen.
I remember reading a Guitar World Magazine interview with their guitarist Larry LaLonde...they asked How do you write a Primus guitar solo...he said Find out the key of the song and play anything that Is Not in that key lo!
The real reason he didn’t get the matalica gig is the style was too different. Plus the way Les plays he would have a hard time being stifled by a standard rock sound.
Jamel, it brings a smile to my face to see you grooving to some Primus. I don't recall seeing you react to them, but check out Les Claypool's Duo De Twang.
Jamel, if you want another exceptional weird band, I'd suggest They Might Be Giants. Primus is unique in its own way, They Might Be Giants has always been called a "College Band," because the only place they ever really got any airplay was on College Radio Stations. Well, and one episode of Tiny Toon Adventures where they were making fun of MTV.
I'm glad you're sharing a version I've never heard. I love the suck on this version. I love how Tommy the Cat is a song he especially experimented and grew over the years.
I think this is still my favourite Primus song. It's just so fun. I get what Jamel was saying about one member in a band outshining the others, too. Worst case I've seen of that in my life was in the late 90s with this band that must have been local (to Toronto) that was somewhere between grunge and alternative and they were not very good, but the drummer was great. It could have also been that the audience was slightly hostile as this band was a very odd fit to open up for My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult and Lords of Acid, but they should have done their damn best!
Les Claypool did a few songs with the Billy Strings band, and vice versa, at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville last week... REALLY, REALLY cool. Go check it out.
The bassist Les went to high school with Kirk, the guitarist for Metallica. Thats part of the reason why he auditioned for them. Les said in a later interview that Metallica was just being nice. Really they thought he was too weird lol.
I know you like saxophones so try this one. Jr. Walker & the All-Stars - Gotta Hold On To This Feeling (with lyrics). One of my most favorite songs growing up.
*Yes, and we SUCK!* LOL I remember you watching Those Damn Blue-Collar Tweekers at Woodstock...you looked like you wished you were there. Not many more shows are more fun than a Primus show.
Tommy Bolin: "Wild Dogs". My Personal favorite. Tommy Bolin: "Dreamer". If you Love Great Dynamics, listen to Tommy Bolin ""Dreamer". Everyone gets to show off a bit on "Post Toastee". And from his short stint with The James Gang Check out Tommy Bolin "Alexis". Try it, you'll like it!!
I saw Primus with Rush half or three-quarters of the crowd was hanging out somewhere other than in the arena watching Primus and I watched Primus and I thought they sucked. But as the years go by I realize what a phenomenal insane banned this is
I got the pleasure of seeing these guys (finally) last month. I’ve seen hundreds of bands play. They’re top five easy. They’re so, so good. Love them or hate them, primus sucks 🤪

Id add Jellyfish and Psychefunakpus to that fab Bay Area Scene!
@@paulrosenberg4227 Yes! I loved Fungo Mungo and Limbomaniacs too!
Jelly.
dude, i am jelly aF. that had to be such an epic show!
Then it really wasn't a mosh pit by what you're saying....
Les Claypool is beyond. I named my cat, back in ‘98, Thomas Lester. He will forever be the greatest, my cat and Les!
Les's name is actually Leslie, but Tommy The Cat is awesome...and normal enough that most people wouldn't get it.

they just did it in Toronto the other day and they invited Alex and Geddy to the show.
It'd be a huge lost opportunity if it wasn't recorded. Haven't seen anything on it anywhere, one way or the other.

@@c.m.b.4868 im still waiting for the Fungi Ensamble live Chocolate Factory album, but this would be amazing as well.
Nothing beats the "Les Strut" during an awesome bass riff...
Les is incredible & the music Primus puts out there is so unique and fun. To think Les auditioned for the Metallica gg and they told him "you're too fucking good for this band".I enjoy Primus immensely. I think he would have fit in just fine, but they understand music and they don't want him stealing the show every night. On a side note: Cliff Burton was "too good" too.
RIP Cliff Burton.
In the "Behind the Music" ep on Metallica, Les was actually interviewed about his tryout w/ the band. Apparently his goofier musical ideas for them was a turn off, so he had that going against him as well.
I really love all the musicians in this power trio! Les is really amazing and the combined forces of these three is pure virtuosity in the flesh.
Tommy the Cat lyrics:
Well, I remember as it were a meal ago...
Said Tommy the Cat as he reeled back to clear whatever foreign matter,
May have nestled its way into his mighty throat.
Many a fat alley rat had met its demise while staring point blank down,
The cavernous barrel of this awesome prowling machine.
Truly a wonder of nature this urban predator.
Tommy the cat had many a story to tell
But it was a rare occasion such as this that he did...
"She came slidin' down the alleyway like butter drippin' off a hot biscuit.
The aroma, the mean scent, was enough to arouse suspicion in even the,
Oldest of Tigers that hung around the hot spot in those days.
The sight was beyond belief.
Many a head snapped for double - even triple - takes as this vivacious,
Feline made her her way into the delta of the alleyway,
Where the most virile of the young tabbies were known to hang out.
They hung in droves. Such a multitude of masculinity could only be
Found in one place...
And that was O'Malley's Alley...
The air was thick with cat calls,
But not even a muscle in her neck did, twitch as she sauntered straight into the heart of the alleyway.
She knew what she wanted...
She was lookin' for that stud bull.
She was looking for that THE cat.
And that was me.
Tommy the Cat is my name.
And I say unto thee...
'Say baby do you wanna lay down with me?
Say baby do you wanna lay down by my side?
Ah baby do you wanna lay down with me?

Hi to the both of you! Hope today find you happy, and healthy. I made your cornbread it was a big hit! He must have been and auction caller!
Loved Primus. A truly unique and great band.
Jamel/Jamal watching Primus! My life is complete!! ;-) Love it!! Claypool is just amazing!
Jamel, you've been my only friend during some rough times the past couple years. Thank you
Everyone focuses so much on Les that they overlook Larry and Tim. It's like three incredibly gifted musicians and lyrics of a 10 year old, love it.
Tim is one of the best drummers in the world. Unfortunately, this video isn't Tim.
Not sure if I already told u this Jamel, but when I lived in SF I was friends with Les. And I'm still here to say Les is more. Sorry bad pun for a magnificent human 💜
Les is always more and your pun is appreciated!
Do you like American music?

Tom Waits was the voice on the studio version.
to be able to play the way he does AND sing the complicated lyrics of all his songs is just amazing. soooo much talent
That was cool. They started with the intro to Those Damned Blue-Collar Tweekers and then Les started up Tommy The Cat,
Two of my absolute favorite songs.
I just went to see Primus love last week. They are playing A Farewell to Kings from Rush in it's entirety. Knowing what a fan of Rush and Les Claypool. I know you would love the show. And they are going to be back in Cali late June.

Until recently, I didn’t appreciate LL abilities but after seeing the recent “Farewell to Kings” tribute tour my opinion has changed dramatically.
also underrated as a deep sea fisherman.... NGL
Dude there is only three of them. Nowhere to hide. Each stand on their own.

This is fun to watch. There is so much junk going on in the world today so, this is refreshing . Thanks for posting .
You can really see the appreciation on their faces when Les kicks in with the hard rifs!

The real reason he didn’t get the matalica gig is the style was too different.
Plus the way Les plays he would have a hard time being stifled by a standard rock sound.
James said to Les you have something here but its not for us, And he was right. But just imagine If Les worked out for them......
He one of best live concert live show great songs
Love your work. Would love to see your video watching Here Come The Bastards.
I love how you love Primus!
Love this song. I learned it on the bass and still play it.
Jamel, it brings a smile to my face to see you grooving to some Primus. I don't recall seeing you react to them, but check out Les Claypool's Duo De Twang.
Love the crowd reactions to Les callouts
Hey baby
*HEY BABY*
Jamel, if you want another exceptional weird band, I'd suggest They Might Be Giants.

I second this! Jamel needs to do a dive into TMBG.
When I have a bad day, Primus puts a smile on my face.
I listen to this group since 30 years, dude…. So unique, so strange and great
If Les Claypool was in Primus, we would've actually heard the bass on "...And Justice for All"
They had Ciff Burton and he was an amazing bass player! Would have loved if he and Les could have played off each other!
It was after Cliff died that he auditioned.
I'm glad you're sharing a version I've never heard. I love the suck on this version. I love how Tommy the Cat is a song he especially experimented and grew over the years.
Coattails of a Dead Man, I HIGHLY recommend it.
Primus is a good band and it's also my late mothers maiden name. Which I think is so darn cool and Primus doesn't suck.🤟
Primus was/is out there man....You can't help but appreciate the musicianship.
The drummer, Jay Lane, is also tightly connected to the Grateful Dead. He has been Bobby Weir's drummer in various bands since 1995.
😻 Love this song.
I went to this tour. Don't know where this particular show is but I might be there.
nope There was no floor seating at my venue.
04:14 The entire crowd finishing his line, "SAY BABY!!!" was amazing. And yalls reaction to that was pretty funny too.
I think this is still my favourite Primus song. It's just so fun.
I get what Jamel was saying about one member in a band outshining the others, too. Worst case I've seen of that in my life was in the late 90s with this band that must have been local (to Toronto) that was somewhere between grunge and alternative and they were not very good, but the drummer was great.

You NEED to watch the animated video with this. It's awesome
My favorite Primus song
It's on!
Tom Waits, another amazing musician you should check out, did the voice of Tommy on the studio album and Les has played on several of his songs.
I REMEMBER AS IF IT WERE A MEAL AGO!!
"...what?"
🤣🤣🤣
Les Claypool did a few songs with the Billy Strings band, and vice versa, at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville last week... REALLY, REALLY cool. Go check it out.
i am so enjoy this , and let me say we all know that tim alexander is the man but this drummer playing here ain't no joke ! !
Just to throw this out there, if you've seen South Park, Les does the theme song.
This is my ring tone.
That’s damn blue collar tweekers thsn tommy nice gotcha moment
The bassist Les went to high school with Kirk, the guitarist for Metallica. Thats part of the reason why he auditioned for them. Les said in a later interview that Metallica was just being nice. Really they thought he was too weird lol.
Man! Rock Hard!
TH-cam didn’t notify me on this
Goin to the primus show on Friday for the 900th time. I suggest you have a look
There's a kickass Chicago band who'd get asked to play this at every other show they did. And they'd fuckin kick its ass.
Les is an Hell of an Bassplayer
You weren't the first Primus review, but you definitely popularized it.
I'm not a Primus fan, but I love this song. Les Claypool is a BEAST.
Is Lea his daughter?
@@GodWeenSatan lol LES. I hit the wrong key with my big ass thumb 😂
Omg plz do primus ..Wynonna got a big brown beaver love that song..
Love Les!!!!
I know you like saxophones so try this one. Jr. Walker & the All-Stars - Gotta Hold On To This Feeling (with lyrics). One of my most favorite songs growing up.
"I don't understand one single word coming out of his mouth"
The only words you need to know are "SAY BABY?"
Hell yeah get the claypool on
"I'm only here to see the bass player." D'ats jazz, man ;)
*Yes, and we SUCK!* LOL I remember you watching Those Damn Blue-Collar Tweekers at Woodstock...you looked like you wished you were there. Not many more shows are more fun than a Primus show.
Tommy Bolin: "Wild Dogs". My Personal favorite.
Tommy Bolin: "Dreamer". If you Love Great Dynamics, listen to Tommy Bolin ""Dreamer".
Everyone gets to show off a bit on "Post Toastee".
And from his short stint with The James Gang
Check out Tommy Bolin "Alexis".
Try it, you'll like it!!
Les Claypool is going to be a bass player that you hear bass players referencing generations from now.
Every time I see something from Primus or Les Claypool it's like what the heck just happened- really? I guess so - just insanity!
I saw Primus with Rush half or three-quarters of the crowd was hanging out somewhere other than in the arena watching Primus and I watched Primus and I thought they sucked. But as the years go by I realize what a phenomenal insane banned this is

Last but first what up Jamel
Les Claypool lives in another universe.
You shoukd play him Cliff on Anethesia (Pulling Teeth) to see why Les made any sense to be looked at at all.
say babayyyyyyyyy!
Have you covered Billy Strings?
Say babyyyy…
Have you had a chance to listen to the new Primus song Conspirinoia? A good fix for the Bass addict
My lovely wife and I were at that ROO
That is a very nice Tat cuz has on his right arm ;)
Searching!!! SEEK AND DESTROY!!
