It’s “Pry- Muss” lol Les Claypool is the best slap bassist there is! Those Damned Blue Collar Tweakers at Woodstock is amazing! I’m in the pit stage left! 🤘#PrimusSucks

Geddy Lee from Rush is his idol bro. Best bassist ever

Shayne Cullen can’t find the lie.

The intro for this video was Those Damned Blue Collar Tweekers, did they play it after?

Lionel Arthur Fluxington idk what you’re asking. This video was from Bonaroo and Woodstock was in 1994. I def don’t remember a set list from 25 years ago.

Harold of the rocks gets over looked too much

[@keeganmccusker2015]

As a diehard Primushead… here are my personal favs: -Harold Of The Rocks - Last Salmon Man -Bob - My Name Is Mud - Ms Baileen - Professor Nuttbutter's House Of Treats - Welcome To This World

[@michaeljustice124]

In case you were wondering about the lyrics. “Well, I remember as it were a meal ago Said Tommy the Cat as he reeled back to clear whatever foreign matter May have nestled its way into his mighty throat Many a fat alley rat had met its demise while staring point blank down The cavernous barrel of this awesome prowling machine Truly a wonder of nature this urban predator Tommy the Cat had many a story to tell But it was a rare occasion such as this that he did She came slidin' down the alleyway like butter drippin' off a hot biscuit The aroma, the mean scent, was enough to arouse suspicion in even the Oldest of tigers that hung around the hot spot in those days The sight was beyond belief Many a head snapped for double--even triple--takes as this vivacious Feline made her her way into the delta of the alleyway where the most Virile of the young tabbies were known to hang out They hung in droves Such a multitude of masculinity could only be found in one place And that was O'Malley's Alley The air was thick with cat calls (no pun intended) But not even a muscle in her neck did twitch as she sauntered up into The heart of the alleyway She knew what she wanted She was lookin' for that stud bull She was looking for that he cat And that was me Tommy the Cat is my name and I say unto thee Say, baby, do you want to lay down with me? Say, baby, do you want to lay down by my side? Ah, baby, do you want to lay down with me? Say, baby? Say, baby?”

[@windargunandi]

SAY BABY !!!!!

watching people discover Primus will never get old. Same with watching them go further down the Claypool hole.

I’ve seen people say that her reactions are fake. Nope... she feels. She feels it right on the surface-can’t help but be carried away by her emotions... It’s beautiful😌

[@joloj23]

One of the best bassist of all time. Period.

[@joelr8616]

That was absolutely totally fire. So much fire!🤘👏🤪😍

[@TDR85]

Enjoy your Primus journey! Glad you found them.

[@somegreatdj]

Now you know. Awesome reaction, thanks for sharing! :)

[@alexdrummer2175]

Best Primus reaction ever!

[@theb3654]

Primus aged a lot better than most 90's bands

[@sacramento60]

You probably have heard them but didn't know it. They wrote the opening music to South Park and were also in the battle of the bands in Bill and Teds Bogus Journey

[@LawrenceFadalong]

Primus is one of those bands that I can still listen to from the 80s-90s era. They are unique and weird but that is why they are awesome. Les Claypool is a beast on Bass too.

[@nbx2au]

Didn't know that they were this good live. :)

[@Zarkzark]

Amazing beautifully change of you during the first 35 seconds of this song.

[@LuckykidA]

This was SO FUN TO WATCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@joek468]

Rush and Primus connection.....Primus opened for Rush on tour in 1992, and since then the bassist has crossed paths with the prog legends many times. In 2006, Claypool performed at Rush's Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame induction, and last year, Geddy Lee sat in with the Claypool Lennon Delirium in Toronto.

[@TheRockstarnumber1]

[@gritter2112]

The first time I heard of them was in concert. They were the warm up for Rush. You talk about a badass concert. Two of the very best bassist's and the greatest drummer. Check out Mr Kringle, my name is mud or southbound pachyderm.

[@shammerhead666]

Primus: to defy the laws of tradition.... That song effin slams

[@lobotomizedjellyfish2171]

As someone who grew up in the Bay Area where their from, I've been to more Primus shows than I can count in the 90's. No matter how many times I've been, they were amazing each and every time. Couple of song suggestions: Too Many Puppies, Bob, My Name is Mud, and definitely DMV!

[@johns1159]

Primus transcends all musical genres. Their talent is way off the scale of believability. Pure musical genius!

[@AnthonyLaMastra]

I recommended this video to you a few months ago, I’m so glad you finally checked it out! I knew you would like it! Check out “Jerry Was A Race Car Driver” and “Winona’s Big Brown Beaver.” The bassist Les Claypool had auditioned for Metallica. They turned him down because they felt he was too talented for them.

[@elbruces]

Or too weird. Same thing. Les with Metallica would be like adding bacon to a strawberry Sunday. Both good, don't fit together.

[@torridchef]

Watching your face light up to Tommy the cat was priceless, and of course you're beautiful as always

[@TrumpTrain86]

Hello, new to your channel. Primus is def one of my fav bands...the lead singer/bassist(Les Claypool) is one of the most unique and funkiest bass players ever. Most people listen to Primus for the music and not the lyrics. Glad you enjoyed it!!

[@420hellbilly]

Les Claypool auditioned for Metallica in the 80s. He lost to James Newsted. Imagine if Metallica went the funky metal route. Wasn't their vision for the band at the time but both Les and Metallica made their mark on music. It brings me back to my 20s seeing someone hear them for the first time and loving it how I did.

[@mikedamonte3743]

I remember first learning about this back around 1991 when mtv had the first documentary on Metallica, and James was talking about the bassists auditioning and he said a guy playing funk and vocally imitated a slap and pop bass sound, but no mention of who it was, Primus was at the time I think just starting to really get noticed with Jerry was a race car driver, so I had no idea it was Les from Primus until some years after that came out, where on another documentary he's featured and James said whoa you're too good, you have your own thing going on.

[@CreativeWarrior-]

I saw Primus and Fishbone live at the Hollywood Palladium. Freak. Out.

[@randyjennings6412]

[@laeonflux]

I love that you finally reached Primus. My fav band ever. This version of the song is good but for now you are just in the presence of the tip of an unsurmountable iceberg of amazing and weird and dark and funky and absolutely unique proportions. Primus is the most unique band there is. I'd recommend something for you to react to but I just wanna witness where this river of mud takes you. Peace!

This was a very "live" version.Check out the studio version sometime if you want a frame of reference, cuz the guitar & bass solos are a little different & the way he raps the intro is alot more coherent so you can make out the storyline.
