Primus Sucks is a phrase that fans of Primus, myself included, have been saying for upwards of 15 years now.... I started saying it when I saw them in concert in 1990... Les was wearing a shirt that had that on it.....

Probably, but I have no idea who u think could possibly be more talented and creative at bass... There is no one... Many come close but none surpass...

And if u say Jeff Ament, I'll crap myself and die of an aneurysm....

How did "Primus sucks" originate?
Before Ler and Herb joined, fans of Primate/Primus would follow around Les and the guys saying, "you guys are great". Les would reply, "Nah, we suck". It caught on and the fans started yelling "You Suck" at shows. Les would reply, "Why Thank You". It caught on and the rest is history.

I dont know how good that guy is, but i reckon the Bass player from Muse would give him a run for his money.

Dude, you're a geek. You actually pay attention to these award ceremonies? Quite sad really, especially when you actually listen to decent music.

I wasn't going to say Jeff Ament, although he is good and can be credited (joint with Stone Gossard) in starting Pearl Jam.

I would say but your old heart will seize up with all that anger and you'll have a cardiac arrest. I don't want to be done for manslaughter
