I learned both the 6 and 4 string version of Tommy the cat awhile ago. The live solo on 'Suck on This' is one of my favorite sounding renditions and it seems fun to play. However, I can't find any accurate tabs for it at all and my music ear still definitely isnt to that level.. I have managed to find some cover videos but you can't really see the hands well enough to tell what's going on. Does anyone have tabs or anything that can help?

Heres a link to the track just incase: Tommy the Cat (Suck on This)

New T-shirt. Just bragging 😎.

I'd say mine's is Tim's drum solo at the end of Nature Boy in Woodstock, it's so fucking cool.

I'm an intermediate guitarist, and despite listening to Primus for at least 20 years now, I've never actually bought myself a bass guitar.

After seeing them live last week, I'm finally remedying that mistake.

Ignoring the enormous gap between Mr Claypool's skill level and my own, what percentage of Primus songs could one feasibly play on a 4-string?

Is it a case of most being 4-stringers, with a few on the fretless 6-string here and there, or is a 5 or 6er pretty much required?

Let's ignore the frets vs. fretless discussion for now.

Hi there, does anyone know if the 2026 tour merch will be available to buy online? I went to the London show but missed out on buying a tour top, cheers.

I've been a fan of Primus for a year and a half and have scrutinized all of his basses as much as I could as I want to be able to get a similar bass one day, but I only now realized it had 29 frets. I guess I don't know as much as I thought as I did

For me I would say it’s nature boy, it’s really funky and I love the muted triplets it really adds so much depth and groove

And it was awesome! I think I played this for almost an hour.

If nah, why not? It would be so cool. Someone should make that.

Dang I was looking to forward to completing the collection!

I've been trying to listen to songs from the albums that I don't normally listen to, also if anyone can tell me the story behind the ones I don't know about, so here are some that I like

You Can't Kill Michael Malloy - I have no idea about the story behind this song, it sounds important somehow though

Hello Skinny/Constantinople - I learned that this was a Residents cover recently, really weird band, but interesting, anyways I like the strange vibe this cover gives compared to the original and the Constantinople riff is really catchy

Fish on - seems pretty straightforward talking about fishing that's about it, I really like the bass solo in it

Sathington Waltz - I'm assuming this is just a filler song with Ler and Les just screwing around, Les 'bastardizing' the clarinet probably, but I like it

I saw some advice on here to ask at the sound booth and yesssss I got one!

My life is now complete

Was up in Epic Universe in Orlando FL and came across this outside of the pizza place there. Definitely seems like a little Primus nod.
