yes, goes back 5 generations, but still related, we share the same coat of arms and the family all came over here (from england) at the same time. he's the most famous person you can find in my family tree (he's on my mom's side).

why's it lame? I didn't claim anything special because of it, I don't even know the guy, we just share some of the same blood/dna./

I've played a little bass, more guitar, and I don't seem to have a natural knack for either

[Lestat]

plz keep in chat at least until tomorrow, then archive in the music forum.

I'm talking about my weekend plans here, not so much about the band or music.

 

[plifter]

My freshman college roomie got me interested in Primus. I had never heard of them before. They are very unique and the bass awesome.

 

[madbomber31]

Yep! That's them. They sure have some pretty crazy lyrics and song titles.

Les Claypool is among the top three best bassist to ever live.

agreed!

 

[pdaddy]

First bass riff I ever learned was my name is mud, fuggin love it!

 

[p0ink]

yeah, i dont think there is a better bassist than claypool. he plays a 6 string, fretless bass like he was born with it.

that is extremely hard to do.

i can't wait to see it live tonight!!

The most impressive part is that he plays off tempo from the bass drum which is very nontraditional AND does vocals on top of that. I've tried it and holy shit do you need to be gifted for that talent.
