BOC ravings

[gary shindler]

I saw Primus in concert about 10 years ago Bill and I am a bass player and respect Claypool but the mix was so high on his bass that I was upset you couldn't hear Ler Lamonde's guitar. I don't know if it was because they were outdoors by a river or what but the sound to me sucked.
