With... uhm... WHO singing? 
I'm sorry, the cover of "The Thing that Should not Be" was OK, but kinda sucked because of the vocals... they should have weirded it up a bit more.
Les can't do metal vocals.

I read on TB somewhere that Cliff Burton actually taught Les how to slap originally. I don't know if that's true, or if it was a sarcastic remark, but it's interesting to note.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Mar 2006 Location: Nova Scotia | | | That is Awesome. I found it on google videos a while back, tried to leanr it, but i cant slap so i gave up :P. I think it would be sweet to hear Primus play Orion, or even Pulling Teeth, although it will never happen, it would have been nice. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
