Les Claypool

“The one thing I've always been proud of is that I've been able to show people that you can do things your own way.”

“You have to have a bit of a screw loose to be a bass player.”

“Primus sucks!”

“To me, the bass is the glue that holds everything together.”

“I'm just a glorified fisherman with a bass.”

“For me, the whole thing is about the song. The song is king.”

“I'd rather be a big fish in a small pond than a small fish in a big pond.”

“There's a fine line between being clever and being a smart-ass.”

“Everything is an experiment. If you don't push the envelope, you'll never know what's on the other side.”

“You can be a musician and a dad. That's a thing.”

“I've always been drawn to the oddballs and the freaks.”

“We're just a bunch of weirdos that got together and made some noise.”

“If you're going to do something, do it with gusto.”
