On the heels of Primus' recent post - they aren't looking for someone who simply plays their songs. They want a drummer with their own unique style. This is my style. This is all material that existed on youtube already. I feel it's a great way to show what i do on my own.
I understand that my style may not cater to their exact requirements, but i rest well on my 1000+ cover videos to demonstrate my ability to learn and adapt to the situation.
p.s. Me wearing that yellow Primus shirt is purely coincidental. ;)

I truly appreciate everyone's support! The youtube thing has brought me so much - through all the burnouts and self-doubt, the endless pursuit of learning new things to improve this or that, dealing with setbacks, polishing terds, boomer tech, misery, etc. - it also brought thousands of people who I've inspired with my videos from my basement. And folks, that makes me cry with joy. Ok I'll stop! - Josh

I am a 56 year old novice drummer, I’ve been playing my kit steadily for 4 years, you have inspired me to keep going!!! One day I’ll be as good as you man!!! Hope you get the gig, I just watched your ‘Mud’ cover tonight not knowing you were auditioning for Primus!!!

Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, can impersonate Lars Ulrich as well as you do. Not even Lars Ulrich does Lars Ulrich justice. Also, your skin skills are obscenely good. I salute you, Sir! \m/(>_

I've been following you since about 2015, you definitely have a style that shines through especially on your "kind of" drum covers. Primus is a favorite of mine so i'd love to see you get the gig, all support towards you

It's not only the drumming. It is his personality that seems to be quirky and nerdy to resonate with what I see as Primus energy.

Dude some of that shit hits harder than 90% of the metal out there today. So many people trying too hard and doing too much when all it takes is a simple groove, a few power chords, and a drummer who can create (and stay in) a pocket. You don't even need Primus dude. Just keep doing that. I'll buy the shit out of it.

Yes! I’ve been waiting for your submission to put your socks in the ring! So smart to focus on original material and highlight your style. Yes your original stuff is heavier, but I read the call out and you have plenty of cover videos and alt versions to show that you can play the catalog. But what can they anticipate you can contribute? Can you match their musical personalities which fuse virtuoso proficiency with Intelligent creativity and originality? Can you integrate humorous content (how are you gonna punctuate the verse! Not the beat) that is exemplify the band’s tongue in cheek instrumental humor? Lastly, (yeah the references may be argumentative but…) who are you and are you gonna be a “Newstead” or a “Trujillo”? Lastly, Primus has a lot to say still, they take an important role in the genre, to show that you also have intelligence and a similar set of social as well as personal values is crucial. Not only to play the existing catalog with the required feel but also to create along those lines. I think you put out a strong argument that you have all of the above, hopefully Les and Larry will also peruse your channel as the proof is there! Good luck Josh! I hope to see you on stage when I’m sitting 3rd row at the mpls show next summer!! #primus
