FIRST EUROPEAN TOUR SINCE 1998; NEW ALBUM ALMOST FINISHED
Primus |
Beginning in June, Primus
will be performing in Europe for the first time since 1998. In a letter, Les Claypool also provides an
update on his nephew Matthew's condition, saying " Little Matthew is plugging away and though he has
got a long way to go, it appears he is a tough little fellow with a lot of heart. Keep your eyes peeled for a special
show in his honor and for his benefit in the Santa Cruz area in the near future."
In terms of a new studio album, Claypool says "The Primus record is nearly done. For those of you that enjoyed the
new song, "Last Salmon Man", that we played New Year's, you'll love the record because every song basically sounds
exactly the same as that one. In fact, we just kept recording the same song over and over and I would just change a
few of the lyrics around. I hear that's the way Pink Floyd used to do it and those guys are no slouches.
(My manager got bent out of shape for me writing that last bit about the record and he wanted me to change it so,
here is what I'm changing it to...)
The Primus record is nearly done. Every song is pretty much a variation of "Don't Fear the Reaper" by Blue Oyster
Cult. Everyone should buy two copies."
