Primus main man Claypool performs a complete concert from his 2006 Summer tour with his latest group of accomplished players. Long acknowledged as one of rock's leading bassists, Claypool began branching out from the alt-rock sound of Primus in 2000, starting Colonel Claypool's Fearless Flying Frog Brigade, courting the jam band audience. Selling over 500,000 CDs in the US since then under a few different band names (including Oysterhead with the Police's Stewart Copeland and Trey Anastasio of Phish), Les put out the career-spanning DVD 5 Gallons Of Diesel in 2005. This DVD captured the complete myriad of band projects Les has worked with outside of Primus. | | | Features: | |

Attention fans of funk bass, xylophones, sitars played like guitars, and distorted saxophones...Jul 09, 2007
By GuineaPunk
For this DVD, Claypool and his current company, sitarist Gabby La La, saxophonist Skerik of Seattle based band Critters Buggin', drummer Paulo Baldi, and an exceptionally talented xylophonist/percussionist named Mike Dillon, serve up extended jam sessions of songs from the albums 'Of Whales and Woe', and Frog Brigade's 'Purple Onion'.
The result is some awesome jams involving a sitar and a xylophone and a guy with a devil's mask on with its face cut off screaming into his sax microphone, as well as Claypool with an elvis mask on with its face cut off from the bottom of the sunglasses down. I don't know why I felt that needed to be explained, but I watched half of the show going, 'What the 'ell is that on his head?'
Anyways, for fans of Primus and Les and xylophone jams and sitars played extremely quickly, and guys with half-masks screaming into mics and stuff, this is the DVD for you. It is a reaffirmation of the sheer talent some musicians can have. Alright.

By M. Reidenbach
"wicked clutch"
Les Claypool fans will love this fancy style footage of some very fancy style live music.This video is Enjoyable, entertaining, exciting, excellent, electric, elegant, and on to the F's, Fancy!!! The sax player is almost to fancy. Warning: if you are one of those rich snobby type fancy people that actually lives a fancy life then you really should buy the limited edition gold plated extra fancy copy when it never comes out.

It's Les, how can you go wrong?Jul 26, 2007
By Corry Edwards
This was a long awaited release. The previous Primus live dvds have been excellent, but this provides a look into the other wild side of Les's career. This dvd is awesome. Les and his band, including gabby la la, are amazing live. Sound and video quality are superb. Enjoy.

 ridiculous - hideous - bootleg qualityMay 10, 2010
By G. Hakala
"hank"
Fancy?
No, this is ridiculous. 1st off it's shot in 4:3, 2cd the audio is only stereo and finally the lighting is so poor, the video is average bootleg quality. Fancy, not. Ridiculous, yes.
