PRIMUS FOR COACHELLA 2009

[Cdubby]

lets make it happen Paul

[PassiveTheory]

I have to say it:

Primus sucks ;)

[Cdubby]

I have to say it:

Primus sucks ;)


you're god damn right they do :dumbo

PLEASE PAUL!!!!!!!!

[rage patton]

FUCK YES!

I would kill to have Primus at Coachella. I have always thought they would be a perfect fit.

[sbessiso]

a million billion trillion kajillion fafafaillion fndfneoifngoiillion times

NO!

[sbessiso]

I have to say it:

Primus sucks ;)

ah yes, we're back on track

but that mgmt comment really stung

[rage patton]

ah yes, we're back on track

but that mgmt comment really stung

Just in case you didn't know, Primus Sucks is an old Primus fan joke. When you say "Primus Sucks!" it actually means you are a fan.

[Cdubby]

ah yes, we're back on track

but that mgmt comment really stung



waiitttttttt

PRIMUS SUCKS (you dont get it, they really do)

anyways- PRIMUS FOR COACHELLA 2009

PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[Blinken]

i was wondering about that.

[sbessiso]

Just in case you didn't know, Primus Sucks is an old Primus fan joke. When you say "Primus Sucks!" it actually means you are a fan.

fuck! i remember that now

i hate primus so much

[rage patton]

fuck! i remember that now

i hate primus so much

Primus slay live. One of the best shows I have ever been too.

Before they hit the stage the whole crowd was screaming "Primus sucks! Primus sucks!"

I guess they are an aquired taste... but Jesus do I ever love them.

[sbessiso]

its noise and anger and more noise and les claypool doing those FUCKING RIDICULOUS voices

[Cdubby]

Oh God...

to hear "Defy the laws of tradition" live.......

i would lose it, its perfect!!!!!!!

[PassiveTheory]

Honestly I'd just go to see Les work the bass.

As much as I'm ambivalent about their entire catalog, the man has a style all his own.

[sbessiso]

i hate you all

[Xenocide]

hell yeah!

[gmoneyak]

The '97 Primus show I caught in Anchorage, Alaska still ranks as one of the best shows I've ever been too. I'm down.

[rage patton]

its noise and anger and more noise and les claypool doing those FUCKING RIDICULOUS voices

Noise and Anger? You aren't listening to the same band I am then. Primus have songs about fishing, Full Metal Jacket and beavers. I would hardly classify them as an angry band. And noise? To the untrained ear perhaps. Primus have incredibly complex ryhthms and all 3 guys are insanely talented musicians. Infact Primus are one of two bands who have a song in 8/11 time. The only other band to do that in the Greatful Dead.
Also, Les Claypool's vocals suposed to be rediculous and theatrical. They were originaly an instrumental group, but they wanted vocals. However they wanted to keep the group a 3 piece and they decided Les has the voice best suited for the group. The only reason is, his vocals were the only one wacky and zany enough to fit in with the music they were making.

Honestly I'd just go to see Les work the bass.

As much as I'm ambivalent about their entire catalog, the man has a style all his own.

Listen to Sailing The Chese and Frizzle Fry. Two completely genius and solid albums. Pork Soda is good too. However, after those albums, their catalog is a very hit and miss to me. Each of the later albums has its gems, but there are also alot of songs I couldn't care less for.

Trust me though man, if you EVER get the chance to see Primus, do it. They are absolutely amazing. My friend and I took our girlfriends to see them in 06, because we are both HUGE fans. Both of our girlfriends, mine especially now LOVE Primus. They are band some people just have to see live before they "get it."

[Blinken]

I have never really been into them, but i would love to see em live.

[slurpee]

Les has been touring lately. I saw him a few months ago.

Primus has been billed on various other festivals the past few years.

Anyone see "festaroo" directed by Les? Hilarious.

[stinkbutt]

Les Claypool and all his projects will never play Coachella ever.

Perry Farrell has been at every Coachella
Les Claypool has been at every Bonnaroo
Neither one has been to the other and neither one ever will

Sorry douchenozzles but if you want Claypool or Primus go to the roo, it's not like it's a bad festival. Just skip Coachella next year and go to the roo that way I don't have to hear anymore of this stupidity.

[slurpee]

I have seen him at Bonnaroo.

Bonnaroo is a hippy drug fest.

[stinkbutt]

Also, Les Claypool's vocals suposed to be rediculous and theatrical. They were originaly an instrumental group, but they wanted vocals. However they wanted to keep the group a 3 piece and they decided Les has the voice best suited for the group. The only reason is, his vocals were the only one wacky and zany enough to fit in with the music they were making.


WRONG
They had auditioned many singers and Les being the ego maniac that he is didn't want any of them so he did it himself. The guys an asshole why do you think none of his bands are together anymore. He somehow managed to get rid of half the Fancy Band who were basically his puppets, he's awesome and knows it and is a dick for it.

[stinkbutt]

I have seen him at Bonnaroo.

Bonnaroo is a hippy drug fest.

Coachella's just cleaner there's just as many drugs there as any other fest.

[fikus222]

Primus sucks !!!!

I have seen Primus twice, in '95 (Tales from the Punchbowl tour) and 2004 (they played two sets and all of Frizzle Fry). I also saw Col. Les Claypool and the Fearless Flying Frog Brigade in '01, they played Shine On You Crazy Diamond.

I chose Beck over Primus at Vegoose in '05 and I am stoked that OSL won't make me have to choose this time since Beck is on Friday and Primus is on Saturday !!!!

[meyouseek]

Primus live is always a good time. Hell, I think I've seen them a dozen or so times over the course of 18 years. A night with Les, Herb and Larry on the polo fields would suit me. Though the energy of them in the Mojave tent would be better than main stage.

[rskapcat]

I would love to see Primus.

While all my friends were crushing on conventional pop stars, my dream man in junior high was Les Claypool. What does that say about me?

[Geno_guerrero]

Hell yes! MY NAME IS MUD!

[woogie846]

Hell yes! MY NAME IS MUD!

Easily my favorite song by them.

Primus for '09!

[Cammo]

Oh I would like that!

[JSam67]

Please, for the love of God, anybody BUT Primus.

[sbessiso]

let's have Mika or scissor sisters or junior senior play at the same time as primus

this way, we're all happy, no?

[sbessiso]

Please, for the love of God, anybody BUT Primus.

this makes me very happy, thank GAWD

[Cdubby]

Primus live is always a good time. Hell, I think I've seen them a dozen or so times over the course of 18 years. A night with Les, Herb and Larry on the polo fields would suit me. Though the energy of them in the Mojave tent would be better than main stage.


primus in the mojave would be fucking awesome!!! and yes you can have mika at the same time, works for me.

[SoulDischarge]

Primus playing 'Sailing The Seas Of Cheese' straight through was one of the best shows I've been to. I wish they would have released that tour on DVD instead of the Frizzle Fry one, but oh well. Still good stuff. Even if yr not a Primus fan, they are good enough showmen that you can enjoy their performance anyway. Unless you REALLY fucking hate them, I guess.

[JSam67]

Unless you REALLY fucking hate them, I guess.

And that's where I fit in. I'm more okay with JJ than Primus. But, to each their own, I guess.

[rage patton]

WRONG
They had auditioned many singers and Les being the ego maniac that he is didn't want any of them so he did it himself. The guys an asshole why do you think none of his bands are together anymore. He somehow managed to get rid of half the Fancy Band who were basically his puppets, he's awesome and knows it and is a dick for it.

I was under the impression that they did infact audition singers, but none of them fit in with the band, so they all decided to keep it a 3 piece. Not just Les. I don't doubt Les is an ego maniac... but damn he has the right to do so.
Also, I havent talked to many people who have met Les Claypool. Some say he is a total dick, other say he is really nice and funny. He is an odd guy, that is for sure.

[stinkbutt]

Some say he is a total dick

This has been my experience along with everyone else I talk to that has met him

[fikus222]

I wonder how well Les, Trey and Stuart were able to get along together during Oysterhead ?

[sbessiso]

And that's where I fit in. I'm more okay with JJ than Primus. But, to each their own, I guess.

this is an intense statment, and provides further reason as to why we are friends

[Cdubby]

Primus and Jesse and the Rippers for '09 !!!!

[sbessiso]

i can live wit hthat

[brycerosen]

I have to say it:

Primus sucks ;)

I do believe, if you hate primus it means you like primus

[sbessiso]

but what if I really really (*really*) actually seriously hate primus

[stinkbutt]

Then you say something to the same degree of what everyone says when they hate a talented band, "don't get me wrong they're talented I just don't like them."

[sbessiso]

i refuse to have that statement come out of my lips

[stinkbutt]

Why not if you could get a whole crowd chanting that I'd prolly pee myself laughing

[rage patton]

i refuse to have that statement come out of my lips

You have to admit they are talented musicians.

[sbessiso]

I don't have to admit shit mr. patton. jackshit

i can drink hater-ade too!

[rskapcat]

Slightly on topic: One of my favorite bellydance troupes actually used "Welcome To This World" in a recent performance. :)

[Memorial_07]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Cdubby]

primussssssss

[world capsized]

PRIMUS SUCKS!!!!!!

COACHELLA 09 PLEASE!!!

[Cdubby]

My name is muddddd

[frozen pilgrim]

tommy the cat had many a story to tell
but it was a rare occasion
such as this
that he did

[Backwater]

FUCK YES!

I would kill to have Primus at Coachella. I have always thought they would be a perfect fit.

See Blackswan for the reason why they would never fit Coachella. Primus fans are hippies and hippies aren't welcome at Coachella.
Hippies > Hipsters and Bonnaroo > Coachella so keep wishing for Primus all you want but you dips will never get them.

[Backwater]

Coachella's just cleaner there's just as many drugs there as any other fest.

HAHAHAHAHA

You've obviously never been to All Good, 10K, Summer Camp, Hookahville, Wakarusa, Langerado or the gabajillion other fests across the country that have 10000000 times more drugs than Coachella. You are an idiot.


As far as Les being an asshole, of course he is, but do you know who is even a much bigger asshole? Prince.

[Boourns]

St. Vincent told me that she saw a lot of drugs at Coachella and that she doesn't do any.

[fatbastard]

I will be lighting a candle and praying every night that Primus does not play.

[bartelby]

I will be doing the opposite.

I just saw them and they were fantastic

[Coachella Bound]

My vote is for YES!

[crazzz2007]

PRIMUS for 09!!!

A BAND WE CAN BELIEVE IN!!!

[Mr. Dylanja]

Primus sucks!

[Xenocide]

Primus for Coachella '09!!!!!!!!!! Hell FUCKING Yeah!!!!!!!

[woogie846]

tommy the cat had many a story to tell
but it was a rare occasion
such as this
that he did

Is it possible to get a better combination than Primus and Tom Waits?

[Geno_guerrero]

Primus sucks! bring them to coachella, even though I live near the city and les claypool is always playing in san francisco

[frozen pilgrim]

les claypool for president.
okay, not really.
but primus in 09? sure!
them in a 5 or 6 oclock mainstage set.
or, mojave headliner. that'd be packed and intense and awesome.

[JSam67]

I will be lighting a candle and praying every night that Primus does not play.

I have been praying every night that one of those lit candles engulfs all of Primus in deadly flames.

[RotationSlimWang]

Josh, you'd really like a Primus show, believe it or not.

[JSam67]

I don't believe I would. I've never liked one aspect of any song I've ever heard, or any live video I've ever seen. My old roommate loved Primus, and tried to tell me the same things while showing me "reasons" why I'd like them, and I hated him for wasting my time. The only way I'd be at a Primus show for longer than 10 seconds is if I was passed out, their music is just too awful.

[RotationSlimWang]

Their live show is kinda reminiscent of Tool at times.

[frozen pilgrim]

their music is just too awful.

in your opinion.

[sbessiso]

I have been praying every night that one of those lit candles engulfs all of Primus in deadly flames.

:pulse!

[Cdubby]

yeah bitch primus!!!!!!! props to thread starter

[Xenocide]

Their live show is kinda reminiscent of Tool at times.

wtf?!

[Xenocide]

randy is kinda reminiscent of jack johnson at times...

[stinkbutt]

He's right on the 2 tours where they had the big balloon things with projections on them there were moments that reminded me of Tool but in no way am I saying I want them at Coachella

[Mr.Nipples]

bring them to coachella

[sbessiso]

Have them play the same time as The White Stripes, or Junior Senior, or a cat fucking a dog or ANYTHING. And we'll be fine.

[Cdubby]

primus will be mainstage, you can have girl talk, or whatever you're into, in the sweaty man tent at the same time.

[sbessiso]

Deal.


Oh fuck, I just got a terrible vision of Primus being at the mainstage (fine) but on right before someone *really* good (the aformentioned white stripes). Just like this year's Tegan & Sara into The Raconteurs fiasco. That would suck

[brando4n82]

Their live show is kinda reminiscent of Tool at times.

this is true, Especially thier Hallucinogenics tour.

Every year I see this thread. MY VOTE IS YES!!!

[frozen pilgrim]

my name is mud

[emtgreg]

BUMP

yes yes!

[marooko]

OH FUCK YES!!!!!

[Cherita Chen]

I will mosh hard at Primus

[jigsaw]

I will mosh hard at Primus


I'm right there with you Cherita!

[Cdubby]

I will mosh hard at Primus


chut up!

[Cherita Chen]

Puck You!

[JSam67]

I always knew you had some really shitty music playing in your headphones, Chen, I just never knew it was Primus. Chut your puckin' pace!

[Cherita Chen]

They understand my pain :(

[Cdubby]

cherita i really liked your performance of autumn angel, i thought it was much better than sparkle motion..........

[Cherita Chen]

Sank you...I knew I should've used a Duran Duran song though

[Cdubby]

bump for primus love in 09

[superfiction]

Their live show is kinda reminiscent of Tool at times.

i support this statement.

[fatbastard]

Pork soda is flat.

[rage patton]

I would love for this to happen. Closing the Outdoor theatre please.

[sbessiso]

you just had to bump this thread. yes please, throw their asses at the outdoor theater and out of my fucking way

[stinkbutt]

this thread again NO not at Coachella they are a Roo band

[rage patton]

you just had to bump this thread. yes please, throw their asses at the outdoor theater and out of my fucking way

I changed my mind. Primus should be the second last set on the Outdoor Theatre. The Scissor Sisters should play after them.

[sbessiso]

Don't even joke like that.

[Cdubby]

you just had to bump this thread. yes please, throw their asses at the outdoor theater and out of my fucking way


lol :pulse

[Xenocide]

FUCK YEAH!!!!! make this happen!!!!!

[futureperfect]

this thread again NO not at Coachella they are a Roo band

Stop Hating on Primus! They could be interchangable at either festival. I remember when they headlined Lollapolooza in 93 when Pork Soda was their big album they headlined over Alice In Chains, Fishbone, Front 242, Arrested Development, Tool, and Rage Against the Machine so why would you limit them and consider them just a jam type band. Les Claypool and the boys have so much talent and are adaptable at many levels. I say "Primus Sucks" i welcome them to Coachella 2009.

[paganman7]

Primus sucks!

[sbessiso]

STOP BUMPING THIS THREAD!!!!!!

oh wait...

[menikmati]

I want Primus at Coachella. Hearing "Over the Electric Grapevine" there would be awesome. And no way Primus would play anything but the main stage.

[Backwater]

QFT

At Bonnaroo 04, My Name Is Mud was one of the greatest moments of my life. That's not even one of my favoire Primus songs, but the vibe at that place and time - awesomeness

[menikmati]

Are you sure they played My Name Is Mud at Bonnaroo 2004? I have a recording of that set, and that song is missing from it.

[Backwater]

I'm just about 100% sure they played it. Could you send me a link to the recording? I'm curious.

edit - maybe it was just a tease or something but I'm absolutely positive I heard those opening basslines somewhere in that set. Everyone around me started yelling My Name Is Mud is mud and that's when things started to get crazy. My brain is completely fucked if they didn't at least hint or tease that song sometme during that set.

[menikmati]

here is the setlist:

http://db.etree.org/lookup_show.php?shows_key=216727

[sbessiso]

To Defy the Laws of Tradition
American Life
Toys Go Winding Down
Groundhog's Day
My Friend Fats
Jerry Was A Race Car Driver
Over The Electric Grapevine
De Anza Jig
Mr. Krinkle
Drums
YYZ
Those Damn Blue-Collar Tweekers #
Lone Rhinocerous #
Thela Hun Ginjeet #
Frizzle Fry
Harold of the Rocks

E: Tommy the Cat

Ha! Backwater Tim was fuuuucked up @ Bonnaroo

Its OK man, I was so sure I heard "Sit Down,Stand Up" at my Radiohead show (they didnt play it)

[Backwater]

Are you serious? I can't even believe this shit. I want to hear a recording because I know it was teased, Les likes to fuck around, those basslines were played during that set. I was 18 at the time (and yes fuuuuucked Sbess) and gullible but there's no way that song wasn't at least hinted at sometime during that set. At Lolla 05 did he not say, "I'm worried ... worried that Tim Burton is gonna fuck up the new willy wonka movie ... but I heard it's pretty good" or am I just completely insane? I've tripped hard at Primus shows, that's no secret, but damn if I can't remember anything at all that occured during them.

[stinkbutt]

What does any of this have to do with them playing Coachella? I don't see them at Coachella it doesn't make sense and Les loves the Roo so leave him there and go to the roo one day it's well worth it. Although I would love to hear Electric Grapevine again but the polo fields just don't seem like a good fit

[futureperfect]

It has everything to do with Coachella being "The Premier American Festival" the one that sets boundaries and doesnt bow to convention and popular concensus. Therefore, my point being is that no matter what seems a best fit to you. Coachella makes its own rules and books the bands it thinks best at the time. Whether it be ones you or i like or dislike. Peace

[stinkbutt]

I was asking what the hell the Lolla rant had to do with any of it?

I like Primus I've seen them 8 times now and saying that I can say they are not a good fit for Coachella

[Xenocide]

the ONLY reason they wouldn't play Coach is cause they got some kind of loyalty to the Roo/Outside people...

they would fit in @ coach just as much as Gogol Bordello, and certainly have a larger crowd than JJ...

[meyouseek]

I can't believe I've been listening to Primus for twenty years. Suck on This!!!!!

No, really. Suck on this. Really suck it. Like you mean it.

[bdfsh]

...

[rage patton]

I want Primus at Coachella. Hearing "Over the Electric Grapevine" there would be awesome. And no way Primus would play anything but the main stage.

I could see them closing the Outdoor Theatre.

[Xenocide]

yup, yup!

[DJdharma]

Primus is incredible live. I've seen 'em 3 times and they are three of the most entertaining and memorable shows I've seen. Incredible energy. They remind me of Battles, only differnce is........PRIMUS SUCKS!!!!!!

[Xenocide]

i don't even understand your post...

[TeamCoachellaHellYeah]

It is a Primus inside joke...for some reason or another fans always scream Primus Sucks at their shows...

[bdfsh]

PRIMUS FOR '09

[boyalien0]

fer serious. this shit should have happened years ago.

[frozen pilgrim]

it's really gotta happen eventually.
please, paul? please? I know, I know, it's primus, they're so bonnaroo... but come on. just humour us.

[Xenocide]

Black Mountain -> Cypress Hill -> Primus (as a sub or sub-sub) on the main stage, followed by Gogol on the Outdoor...

Paul, i'll suck your dick if you make this happen...

[esy191]

Bump.

Do it Paul T.

[esy191]

Seriously, please just do me a solid and book Primus.

[esy191]

If it's a late add, I'm cool with that too.

[esy191]

...c'mon.

[SometimesNJ]

i would love to see them, but i heard they were terrible at outside lands

[esy191]

i would love to see them, but i heard they were terrible at outside lands

Was that the opinion of a non-primus-fan festival antendee? Or a primus-fan-festival atendee.

Because if I didn't already love Primus I would think they sounded pretty fucking horrilbe live (as well as on record for that matter).

Lot's of screeching dissonant guitar sounds, treble-y bass, and nasal vocals. Not for everyone.

[paganman7]

Primus sucks!!!

[gmoneyak]

From everything I've seen and heard about their performance at OSL, they killed it.

Les Claypool is going on tour really soon, I would definitely be down if he squeezed in a Primus show at Coachella this year. Not quite sure how realistic that's going to be, though.

[microcuts]

Primus have been milking everything for what it's worth since 2003 with no new material. Instead of playing the same greatest hits-setlist every time they get on stage maybe they should make a new album? Or maybe they're content being a nostalgia band. Though it is a bit sad that they didn't follow up the Seas of Cheese/Frizzle Fry tours with a Pork Soda one. The 3-hour long, double-set Primus shows were definitely great.

[cuzinmank]

PRIMUS was amazing at Outside lands ! I was up in the middle in the mess in the mosh it was some of the best people to be in a giant circle stomp mosh pit! Crazy but good people one of my best experiences and ive been to alot of festivals and shows in my time.


BRING US PRIMUS

[esy191]

Paul, this is the will of the people.

Make it so.

Let there be Primus.





...or at least the Frog Brigade.

[Cdubby]

id like some primus on the polo fields in a few months...

[nothingisnothing]

Sold all my Primus records yesterday

Feels good man

[Natelevmofuggaz]

I support this thread 100% Primus fucking sucks.

I saw Primus at the Rimac (UCSD) with Gogel Bordello Back in 2006 and it was easily one of my favorite concerts to date.

[Dale Gribble]

Primus is sick live.

[FC1685]

i saw primus at golden gate park...i was too high to remember most of it but i do remember it was shity!

[daftradioheadpunk]

PRIMUS 2009!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[joshisgod]

PREASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[zgold9675]

I have seen Claypool many times but last summer, when Primus played Rothbury, was the best show i have ever seen. His rendition of The Toys Go Winding Down was ten minutes and included a raunchy reggae jam in the middle. I started the first crowd-wide chorus of PRIMUS SUCKS!!! i had a few stupid hippies yell at me and defend Primus. They had the audacity to tell me if i thought Primus sucked to leave the concert. Ha Ha.

[Memorial_07]

God damn it please happen

[Drknowph]

primus sucks

never seen them
and really want to
primus at coachella would be the shit

[Memorial_07]

Hell Yeah.

Saturday before Winehouse because we all know she'll be sub-headlining

[Xenocide]

HELL YES!!!! this is the band the lineup needs...

[digitalmau5]

Jerry was a racecar driver!

[Memorial_07]

He drove so goddamn fast, he never did win no checkered flag but he never did come in last...


epic

[esy191]

Well I remember it as though it were a meal ago...



Bring Tom Waits too.

[rage patton]

When I grow up I want to be...
One of the harvesters of the sea...

Im counting on them being added to Bonnaroo. Not Coachella though.

[esy191]

Im counting on them being added to Bonnaroo. Not Coachella though.

I don't think any of us are counting on it for Coachella either.

But we sure are hoping.

[rage patton]

Maybe if the headlined the Outdoor theatre. 50 minutes on the mainstage would not do them justice. Give them an 90+ minutes headlining the outdoor. Against The Killers. It would be perfect.

[esy191]

Give them an 90+ minutes headlining the outdoor. Against The Killers. It would be perfect.

AGREED

[PLURallovermyface]

Jerry was a racecar driver!

Jesus built my hotrod...



PRIMUS FOR COACHELLA 2009!!!!!!

[Memorial_07]

That's Ministry.


Whom I would love to see more than Primus but either one is fucking amazing!!!

[PLURallovermyface]

http://i192.photobucket.com/albums/z259/47of74/WellDuh.jpg

[myfretsarestolen]

Primus as a late-add is not looking good. Les Claypool just announced a new album from his solo project, the fancy band...

http://lesclaypool.com/img/splash-fungi-cover.jpg
The Fancy Band is touring in March and if Les is in fact added to Coachella late it won't be Primus. I saw Primus for the 4th time at Outside Lands and they will forever be one of the greatest live bands of all time.

[Memorial_07]

Maybe Oysterhead will play or Buckethead will show up Les will jump on stage with him

[rage patton]

Ugh. Primus probably isn't going to happen then. Probably Les Claypool solo. Or maybe even Oysterhead.

EDIT: I meant at Bonnaroo. Not Coachella. (Unfortunately,) We all know Les Claypool will never make an appearance at Coachella.

[Memorial_07]

Any appearance made by him would be great.

Let's get Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains back together or the Flying Frog Brigade

[erniemm]

Saw them last year @ Outside Lands Festival...KILLER SHOW...They should bring them to headline saturday...at least to play at the same time that the killers...please....

[Memorial_07]

I thought Primus hasn't played in quite a few years
