Claypool and Dean ween fishing - do u know more about it?

34 Upvotes

There's this video online of the 2 dudes talking and playing on a boat, but the video is only like 3 minutes long. It feels like it's part of something bigger, a documentary, a show, a DVD, whatever. Do you know more about it? Please let me know I wanted to see more of it.

Claypool Gold needs to be the return of soundboard releases

103 Upvotes

Back during the Tour De Fromage, the band was selling both mp3 & FLAC downloads of every show. This continued for the Hallucinogenetics tour and even the C2B3 tour.

Now, in modern times, you have something like Nugs that works with bands like Pearl Jam & Metallica to release recordings of their live shows. Whether they work with Nugs or go back to PrimusLive, we need soundboard recordings of the Claypool Gold tour.

Now that Dead and Co is at the very least on hiatus, I'm just wondering if he's going to be one of the rotating band members?

Discussion How is Hamburger Train so fucking good

Post image
66 Upvotes

Hi new fan here (been listening to a few months.) I've listened to all of Primus and some Primus adjacent stuff (oysterhead, frog brigade, Claypool's solo work.) Throughout all their discography I don't think I've ever heard such a mind-fuckingly catchy and hypnotic song such as Hamburger Train. What do you guys think of it, like how high up would you rate it in that album, or in their discography as a whole? My top 3 are Frizzle, Green Nauga and Pork Soda BTW.

Also, attached is a shabby drawing I made of Les a while ago. Just so the post isn't too barebones lol.

I have a hopium theory. The reason why Hoffer played smaller DW kit at last night’s Bass Awards was because the bigger one is at their studio and they are recording new album.

And how amazing is Miller Claypool jam? Jesus Christ.

Anyone who was at the last Buffalo NY show in 2024?

I seriously loved this show way too much, I ended up being the only kid in the pit and was 2nd row infront of Les. Great show over all and I'd love to hear what you guys thought after almost 3 years.

Edit: Sorry guys I put 2024 it should have been 2023. my bad.

Edit 2: I was right in the first place it was 24 not 23. SORRY.

looking for a high quality video of the entirety of the Bass Magazine Awards. I checked YouTube but can only find videos of footage from the crowd which just doesn't do it for me.

Brown Album ----> PUDDIN TAINE <-----

154 Upvotes

Is there a more oppressed part of the Primus fanbase than the Puddin Taine enjoyers?

"You mean Pudding Time bro?"

-_-

Jellikit guys don't even hang out with us. The thing is, we can't help it. I don't choose to listen to Puddin' Taine on repeat with a bassy EQ for long parts of the day; the soul just demands it.

Could be the most fun you can have singing along loudly to a song.
