lespecial plays "Frizzle Fry" 3.12.21

[@lucasashley2398]

Holy shit you guys are underrated and relatively unknown, it is a very high priority to catch a show and spread the word!

[@adama6441]

just wait until he passes the audition for primus.

[@StevenHoste]

Very sneaky tease of Jerry in To defy at 10:55! Nice!

[@matt_er_]

Crazy hard to sing and play drums!

[@jasonduvaras8812]

Especially singing and and at the same time playing Herb material. Crazy, crazy, crazy. Fantastic stuff.

[@carpediemarts705]

Think I heard rock drummers can sustain heartbeat around 21p bpm?

[@mungiesilvers5544]

Let alone like claypool

[@JCMiniPainting]

This feels more like a cover of their famous Halucinogenetics tour, to which it is an amazing re-creation. The drums were above and beyond amazing. Tim Alexander would be proud.

[@lespecial]

The Hallucino-Genetics Tour was a big inspiration for this. We got to catch a few shows on that tour and the soundboards are still some of our favorites. Thanks for checking it out!

[@MrNoahalee]

Was that the one where they gave everyone 3d glasses and had a huge screen behind them? So good.

[@JCMiniPainting]

@@lespecial The addition of the Hello Dolly bit was really what sealed the deal for me. No true playthrough is complete without it. The dabbling of personal touches was the perfect amount too.

[@ryanwilliams5743]

@@MrNoahalee nope that was the willy Wonka tour

[@Employee00765]

​@Ryan Williams nope. It was the 3D tour.

[@LadySneff]

These guys are too much awesome...they learn the best music available (Primus) and also PLAY with it! Skinny tease, Reggae Toys, et cetera...SO (le)SPECIAL! Brings me such joy and excitement, you never know what to expect even if you think you know the songs. And, I mean, it would seem creating your own version of Les on bass or Ler on guitar is quite the rare feat...but seeing Rory fuckin Dolan's delicate work alongside the awesome weird noises -- so much joy, so much joy! Thank you, lespecial! What glorious beasts.

[@lespecial]

Thank YOU!!

16:26 Is Too Many Puppies

[@bricethebruce2593]

@@coulsoncrawford2456 Right I made a mistake , I corrected it :)

[@TheJumboPenguin]

At 19:10 they play Hello Skinny by The Residents (which Primus covers at the end of their album) as an interlude during Too Many Puppies

[@rayna8544]

I came here to write this!!!!! The freaking Residents cover is AMAZING. My new lespecial cover request for sure. @@TheJumboPenguin

[@nashharder5438]

Fantastic performance! Rush and Primus go hand in hand, the drummer gets it!

[@lespecial]

Like peanut butter and pudding....

[@huffnbassist8779]

Nice job guys! That drummer's voice and drum sound is amazing itself and it sounds just like the Primus vocals and drumming.

[@stephensinilas8611]

I saw primus perform this record in entirety in 2004 in philly. Tripping balls. Bravo fellas. No easy feat. = bravo

[@cloudstar845]

I drove up to Sacramento from SF and saw Primus do Frizzle Fry in 2010. They sounded just as good when I first saw them in 1992 at the Roseland in NYC. These cats from CT do this album justice for sure!

[@mungiesilvers5544]

​@@cloudstar845damn they were in sac in 2010? Where did they play?

[@BLUECIFER]

who hit like before the intro music was done?

[@shanewilliams5818]

Blown away guys, you rip! Who the hell in their right minds decides to cover an entire Primus album (pretty much live) with only a couple 2 minute breaks? Let alone do it basically flawlessly and with no live audience? I’m convinced Rory is Les’s bastard child. How the hell did you hold that beat and flawlessly do vocals for the intro to Spaghetti Western? Watched/listened start to finish, where can I buy an album and a T-Shirt? This made my day.

[@darthcreepio]

Josh- I WAS THERE!

[@a7pokm]

We need the rest of the albums of primus

[@WesAndersonMusic]

spot on!

[@Billytool]

Awesome sound and show thanks guys peaccccce

[@toothsmuj2928]

Amazing! (For lack of better words...) Drummer has the perfect primus voice, bassist is nearly as much of a mutant as Les, and guitar channelling the essence of Ler through his shirt, absolute brilliance, this doesn't happen often enough!

[@carpediemarts705]

Trying too hard to sound like someone else. Would have been better in his own voice.

[@brendanmccormick5726]

wow they crushed it. well done guys

[@j_belfontaine]

I loved every second of this, I also think it's awesome that you can sing like Les Claypool but also play drums like Tim Alexander while singing

[@Chuck_The_Human]

You guys are my favorite new band!!

[@MrNoahalee]

Totally didn't expect you to nail Les' vocals. Sick!

[@Luke90926]

Damn drummer killed it

[@dirtusmaximus7380]

A buddy of mine asked me if I wanted to checkout out your show in Davenport last night. I had not heard of you guys before yesterday but I’m always down for some live music and I’m a Mike Dillon fan so I was in. Then you bust out some Primus/Frog Brigade covers and I was definitely in. I’m a huge Primus fan and I never thought I’d hear a band with the balls to pull off Primus and then I find this show today on here. Well done gents and I really dig your original stuff too.

[@Luke90926]

Yoo possessed sweatshirt. That's the ultimate shout-out to Ler

[@lespecial]

That was the goal! Love Ler

[@MichaelSartore]

So good! I'm loving this! P.s.... Nice Possesed T! "Fitting!" ...p.p.s... "LES-pecial"!!

[@aliavalentine864]

You even worked out the live version of Sathington Willoughby! Amazing!

[@LosBastardostributeband]

Spot on covers, you guys did an amazing job! Respect 🙏🏻

[@lespecial]

Cheers fellas!

[@rubricmarine6857]

That was great

[@NeedITDeathHeated]

This shit rules, you guys nailed it. Loved the livestream, came back to enjoy it again. Hope you to hear you on Primus Tracks more often!

[@YungAirheadOfficial]

I cannot stress enough how impressive this is. Not only is he playing he bass correctly, they almost match his early voice, and the drummer is correct. Just like videoplasty.

[@insanebassman]

Every single instrument on point. Good show!!!

[@sloedwn7509]

Jonny rockin the Possessed shirt too🤘🏻 I’ve been blasting this one every day since the stream, So damn nasty 🔥. HUGE Hallucino-Gentics feels. Thanks homies!

[@daz9275]

I was so lucky in 1991 to see Primus with LimboManiacs on The Frizzle Fry tour at Trent Poly in Nottingham and them supporting Janes Addiction at Rock City... incredible times

[@LoudSwell]

Amazing Show! Cheers to the Collaboration!

[@lespecial]

Appreciate y'all!

[@cloudstar845]

You've made an old Primus fan and pretty new lespecial fan very happy. This is just the level of awesome I needed tonight.

[@truthseeker4841]

This band is amazing!! 🔥

[@kclange8231]

You guys already remind me of Primus at times so what the hell, it turned out EPIC!

[@bobilly]

Really really well done you guys 👏 you can see all the work that went into this

[@crutches4375]

Seeing some of these covers live this year at SummerCamp was a treat. God Primus suckss

[@walshdeeztv6733]

See you guys at jibber jazz in the end of april.

Somebody give this man a Primus gig! 1:00:51

[@adama6441]

i dont want to speak too soon. but holy shit, the band i found out about at summercamp might be a drummer for the coolest band ive seen at summercamp

[@tenplex]

Well, I’m a new fan. The band definitely nails Primus pretty well. Did they start their band career as a Primus tribute band? Anyway, good musicians. I’ll have to check out their other stuff.

[@lespecial]

We've been playing and releasing original music for over 15 years, but Luke and Rory have been playing Primus together since they were whippersnappers. Check out our new album 'Ancient Homies'. Thanks for listening!

[@tenplex]

@@lespecial I’ll definitely check it out. Sorry for not being aware of you guys sooner. Better late than never I guess. Perhaps I’ll see a show too when live shows are back.

[@barrelofmonkeys5099]

im late but im here

[@carpediemarts705]

I started the vid and wasn't watch. Just doom scrolling. And said to myself, gee that bass tonr sounds sweet. I didn't realize it was a cover. Nice surprise when I maximized the video.

[@HamzaJamzaFamza]

When you come to Asheville, NC, are you going to be playing Frizzle Fry? I will certainly attend if so

[@primustracks]

Biased, but 1:15:06 is a pinnacle moment.

[@ETfromEuropa]

Damn

[@BullyMaguire4ever]

Rory is gonna be the guy.

[@clarencedthewrench8790]

Pretty bad they made a band that sucks sound simply amazing.

[@Sgarnoncunce]

very rarely will I watch a 5 minute youtube video in its entirety.... I watched this whole fkn thing. Vocalist was funny, everyone's playing was tight. Bassist seemed like he was holding himself back a bit though. Seemed quite reserved and the tone wasn't my favourite. Didn't sound bassy enough if thta makes sense? This is like primus if Les was the drummer. Every player was phenomenal.

[@lespecial]

He was probably just concentrating on nailing the triplets in The Toys Go Winding Down. Not the easiest bass part.....

[@Sgarnoncunce]

@@lespecial haha I was blind when I wrote that. Standing up against Les is not a job for mortal men, but he fuckin' slayed it.

[@kyleparish8887]

Hey a 40 year old primus fan thought it was a live set so id say they did a hell of a job!

[@batteryheadmusic]
