I met Les Claypool...

Yesterday at Tower Records on Columbus and Bay, Les Claypool was there signing copies of his new album "Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains". It was awesome! Katie asked him if he was going to play the whamola at the concert at the Warfield, he said maybe and "The Whamola is a wonderful thing." Very cool guy, I think he was kinda bored by the time we got there but it was cool to see so many Claypool fans excited to meet the man. The new album is pretty cool. The instrumentals songs sound very improvisational, similar to Pink Floyd's old stuff, which we all know has a huge influence on him.
