 Damn it, I remember reading this thread way back, and I just saw Joe Lally play in Buffalo last week, opening for Antelope who are really good by the way. I was standing 5 feet away from him during Antelope's set,

It would be cool if someone could record the Joe Lally sets (yes, accompanied by members of the Melvins). Just a hint.

I wonder how they will do that...
Seems exciting :)

They wil probably document/record this, cause The Melvins arent exactly scared of releasing records.
:lol:

Lally + Crover could = the greatest rythm section EVER.

this has come up before, and i may get lynched for saying it.........

i'd like to hear crover play with les claypool.  it would sicken me if the album was released as "melvins" but i think buzz and dale with les on bass would be quite interesting.  the rhythm section would completely overpower buzz.  the original primus drummer is quite heavy and crover-ish in a sense.  the time i saw them he was back for the tour and the drumming + claypool was really really really good.  i am not a gigantic primus fan but it was one of the best performances i've ever been to.

yeah, it could have been interesting.

Even though Les Claypool has released a serious amount of bullshit.

I want to hear what they recorded with Mike Kunka :(

They do put on a good show. Buzz always talks shit about Primus, though, so i doubt he'd do it.

no.

Trevor Dunn once uttered something like "I can appreciate what Claypool has done, but I consider him a one trick pony..."

I know it probably won't happen but I would like a studio album with Dunn. Hell, I'm just happy he played on the Houdini Live disc.
Hail, not fail.
PS:  fuck him.

I'm getting a new mic just for the Black Cat show. (if not a sound board)

To bring on two other bands, compared to Black Dice, Lightning Bolt is a one trick pony as well. They've more conceptualized their music, while Black Dice choosed for - as Lightning Bolt jokingly calls it - intellectualization (you almost have to be an intellectual to spell that word correctly, thanks Google). But within that concept, they're getting more creative and better, but after a couple of albums I think it's over, and that's why you have to keep progressing. It's getting slightly off-topic, but I think my point is made.

Quotebut still...my question is:  can Dunn do that trick?

I would guess so.

Quotei agree that claypool has only really done one thing (though i haven't heard all of his projects), but i would like to hear the one thing accompanying the melvins for at least a few songs

Just like one would want to hear Bootsy Collins with 'em right?

Quotebesides, what does Dunn do that's so great?  i didn't really notice him doing anything exceptional on houdini live.  he seemed more like a place filler

Me too. He did an excellent job of course, but added nothing special that I would have epected from an extraordinary bass player.
