Primus concert review

by PhantomANTIPOP.

Metropol, Pittsburgh, PA. November 16, 1999.

The night started off with Buckethead tearing the joint apart. i swear I never seen something so disturbing and at the same time equally hillarious. After the incredibly insane set from Buckhead Incubus came on. I think I would have enjoyed their set a little better if it were only 20 minutes long. I'm not saying they were bad, just that it got old after the first half hour. I did buy their new CD at the show however. By the time Incubus was done I was getting exhausted, but I was still jacked as ever. It took forever for Primus to come out, but when they did they gave the best performance I ever seen. I felt my blood rush when the PA system started playing the "Pee Wee's Big Adventure" theme. If you have tickets to a up coming show you are in for the roller coaster ride of your life. The most memorable part of the night was how many times Les kept pointing at me during the show when I pointed at him. A great show, nay the best show I have ever witnessed.

The set list:

• Sgt. Baker
• Antipop
• Damn Blue-Collared Tweekers (with Ballad of Buckethead)
• My name is Mud (with Buckethead on Nunchucks)
• Jerry was a Racecar Driver (Les introduced this as "Jerry was a Pancake maker")
• Kalamazoo
• Groundhog's Day
• Laquer Head
• Harold of the Rocks (With a cover/intro of Ozzy's "Crazy Train"
• Final Voyage of the Liquid Sky

Before they went into encores Les came out and sang the first verse of Mr.Krinkle in this funny squelling like voice). Encores (Les came out wearing the pig mask):

• Electric Uncle Sam (Started by chanting "Primus is taking over the Air Waves")
• Too Many Puppies (with Resident's "Hello Skinny" in the middle)
