➡️ @officialprimus have always marched to the beat of their own slap, but this performance of “Those Damned Blue-Collar Tweekers” from Woodstock ‘94 is where everything just clicks. In this video, I explore why this live version is so iconic—from the monstrous thumb-strikes and quirky strummed double-stops, to Les Claypool’s uncanny ability to blur the line between bass line and bass solo. I also take a moment to highlight the fascinating stage dynamics, discuss John Hoffman’s recent addition to the band (fellow Shreveport native!), and dive deep into how Primus manage to keep a three-piece lineup sounding so massive. Tons to unpack here—let’s get weird!
