Funny how many people are downvoting you because they don't get the reference.

Anyway, I haven't kept up with Primus at all. What happened to Herb the ginseng drummer?

Sick of being on the road and wasn't into it anymore.

Had some heart issues or something to go along with.

made me feel old when i saw he was 60. Then I realized I've been seeing primus for nearly 20 years ago when i was 15.

They released their first new song together "Little Lord Fentanyl" Nice little Primus Groove. I got to see it live in Palm Desert and it was great.

I'm finding irony in this because the band The Residents are originally from Shreveport before they moved to San Fran. Les LOVES The Residents, has referenced them in Primus lyrics, and also has covered Residents songs like Sinister Exaggerator found on Primus' Miscellaneous Debris EP. I'm sure it's pure coincidence, but I can't help but notice the Shreveport correlation.

Saw The Residents in a smaller venue in Munich in the mid-90's. Fantastic show; had no idea they were originally from Shreveport.
