Primus Live at Woodstock 94: Here Come The Bastards Performance
In the summer of 1994, Primus took to the iconic stage at Woodstock 94, unleashing their eccentric and genre-bending sound that blends funk, rock, and a sprinkle of whimsy. Just prior to this unforgettable live performance, the band had released the album 'Pork Soda' in April 1993, which featured hits like 'My Name Is Mud.' By this time, Primus had already established themselves as a distinct force in the alternative rock scene, gaining a loyal following drawn to their offbeat lyrics and intricate musicianship. The Woodstock performance was notable for showcasing their signature energy, combining bassist Les Claypool's virtuosic style with the band’s quirky yet potent stage presence. This moment not only underscored their influence during the 90s but also cemented their place in the festival’s legendary history.
