    Sick show last night in Boston. 

    Animals was amazing. 


    Glad you dug it.

    We went to a show where there was maybe 1000 people?  What a great show.  People that were Floyd fans and saw them said this was amazing.
    It really was. I'm a casual Floyd fan, and this show inspired me to get familiar with Animals in advance, and I'm glad I did. I see why some people call it their favorite PF album, it's pretty amazing, as was the performance of it last night. 

    MGM Grand Fenway is also quite the venue, the sound was fantastic. Between That & Roadrunner, we have two awesome new venues in Boston, which is nice considering how much ass the House of Blues sucks. 
    I was wrong.  2800 people can fit.  Still doesn't seem like a lot.

    Saw them in Detroit a few weeks ago. Easily one of the most entertaining performances I've seen and I was super impressed with caliber of musicianship.

    They totally nailed Animals and all of the other tunes were killer!

    Happy for you!!  In for a treat. (I missed out on these shows.) My friend saw them by lake tahoe with fishbone. Loved it. I just like seeing all those froggy posters.

    Back off Turkey. Les is releasing the Prawn Song Years in a vinyl boxset at Club Bastardo.  Best wax release of the year.

    This is a fun Primus story from over the weekend. 



    They’ve been killing it on the Sessanta tour. 

    EDIT - photos still appear to be screwy.. long story short, they were playing Sick New World in Vegas on Saturday, the day after Red Rocks, and all their gear got stuck in a blizzard in the Rockies... them & APC had to scramble to play their shows. Les & Ler went to a local store, picked up matching Fenders to play the gig and are now going to auction them off for charity. Les didn't even take the tags off.  :D

    No, but here’s a good RS interview that just came out. Seems he’s in a better place than one might infer from the Primus statement.

    Funny thing about weekends when you're unemployed, they don't mean quite so much except you get to hang out with your working friends
