I just picked up the new Primus DVD and it's a must see for any bassist. It left me feeling like Les is the "Jimi Hendrix" of our era. Herb and Ler are also on top of their game. I can't stop watching it!
Anyone else check it out yet? |

Pirating is a crime against the creativity of genuine artists like Les, IMHO you should show your appreciation of his work by purchasing the DVD TWICE, so you can give one away as a Christmas present to a fellow bassplayer. Peace!  |

One of things I love about Claypool's bands (and this goes for Primus, C2B3 and FFB) is the fact that the bass drum is so prominent in the mix and this is clearly evident on the DVD.
The audio and video are excellent - a HELL of a show, too! You gotta love a set that includes Southbound Pachyderm, Jerry was a Race Car Driver and My Friend Fats - just sick!!

I could think a bunch of songs they could of played and I wish they showed alot more of ler actually and close up of his hands to figure out what he is playing cause alot of his stuff on guitar is HARD to play. Ler is about as creatvie and inovative to guitar as les is on bass.

My exact same feelings... also I like watching the drummers and almost no closeups of Herb... Anyway It is a must for Primus fans, The bass sounds amazing and It is really nice to have the Whamola jam on a DVD...

IIRC, this is from the Philadelphia show, but I know I REALLY want to see Toronto's YYZ again, so I'm intensely curious about this.

But,,,, Les seems to have; a) horrible intonation and b) horrible soloing skills. Well, I guess nothing much has changed then.

It was kind of bland, he hardly spoke to the audience which he is usually well known for. The cheese tour show at that venue last year was much more enjoyable.
Any primus watched is great, but relatively so, that show seemed kind of dissapointing. I heard several shows audio from that tour and they all blew the Chicago one away.

i agree that larry and tim are just as important, it seemed as though they were trying to keep the cameras out of the way of the audience. I love the shots with the orbs in the back and ler in the front - craziness. A very scary dvd.

People will always complain about the set list. "They didn't play my song" or whatever. But you'll never please everyone. I wish they would have also put out a DVD of the Cheese tour. That show was killer! | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
