I got to see Primus and you didn't

As if you'll even read this with a clip of Primus live below, I wanted to give some brief history on Primus's legendary drummers.

Current drummer Jay Lane has also been the member of Charlie Hunter Trio, which would explain his jazzy tendencies. During the opening act (the Dead Kenny Gs) Mr. Lane snuck in and threw a jazz groove behind the bands closing piece. Epic.
Tim "Herb" Alexander got some Primus time along with Larry LaLonde who played on my favorite peice, "My Name is Mudd" on "Tommy the Cat". Then Alex left the band and a Bryan Mantia held the reigns. Last year Claypool got Jay Lane to come back and they all lived happily ever after.

Primus SUCKS!!!
