Imagine being out fishing, and seeing Les claypool and Dean Ween on a boat playing together

Wow, watching Les sing the mollusk with Deaner was really heartwarming.

The Mollusk is one of the greatest experimental concept albums ever made. Maybe even one of the best albums ever made. God bless Ween

Les saying “nah that’s too complicated for me” is high tier humour

Stephen Hillenburg, the creator of Sponge Bob, sited "the Mollusk" as a major influence. "Ocean Man" is also used as the closing theme for the sponge bob movie.

This was a very heart-warming and sentimental moment. Two creative geniuses, just living , being normal. If this isn't nice, I don't know what is.

Primus and Ween should form a supergroup and do an album. They look like they had a great time during the South Park 25th Anniversary!

The fact that they followed 12 golden with the Mollusk is an incredible feat. Both are perfect.

Dean is one of the most underrated guitar players. He can play so many styles!

The Mollusk is a masterpiece.

I got to open up for Ween once. Was a cool ass night. Seen primus a ton too. Great pair.

What a cool little window into two great musicians hanging on a boat.

I went to Claypool Cellars and Les’s wife let us pick a record from their collection to play during the wine tasting. I picked The Mollusk because I hadn’t heard it yet. It all makes sense now.

This is what I needed for my day. We need a Les/Deaner collaboration project dammit!!!

my cheeks hurt from smiling so much at this. How beautiful

Oh man, a real collaboration between these two guys would be the most awesome album ever. I love both of them, I love their bands, I love their music, I love their personalities, I love their wisdom, I love the stories they tell us, I love their style and their weirdness and the joy that they bring to so many of us. More Dean & Les plz!!! More more more!

Can’t wait to see these cats rip it up at the South Park red rocks gig

When I was in high-school, Both of these guys changed everything I ever knew about music and I've been a big fan of their work for 15+ years now. Cool to see that they're friends.

The Mollusk is my all time favorite album. Every time I listen to it, it takes me back in time.

*These two men made so so many minds wake up in the 90’s and I’m glad we at least still have these two*

Having recently listened to the mollusk I can say with confidence that it’s fucking incredible. I think one of its greatest feats is the fact that it’s able to maintain its ocean theme even when the songs have nothing to do with the ocean. It still feels like it’s on the same stage the mollusk (song) set at the beginning of the album. Incredible

Seeing Dean and Les play The Mollusk is really heartwarming. I don't often hear musicians playing their own music so casually. They both just act like fans of the music. Les though has some killer taste in music between Ween and Death Grips. Also gods above and below, The Mollusk is such an amazing album. It's nothing short of enchanting.

Got to meet both these dudes after gigs in NZ. Les in the 90's AKL and Deaner 00's in WGN. both legends

These guys should make an album together it be crazy mad

I've listened to other Ween albums and love many songs not on "The Mollusk" but that record is the one I threw on repeatedly for many, many years. So cool to see Deaner and Les connecting. Two giants coming down to our level for a bit.

25 years and I'm still waiting to find out which 3 things spur the mullosk from the sand

Mollusk is great but I think Quebec surpasses it. The last true album from Ween and their musical pinnacle. La Cucaracha doesn't really feel like a true album, it just feels like a bunch of cut songs they had laying around.

I love that they met at Alternative Nation. I was at that festival and VERY high on acid. I have no idea if my memories are in any way close to what actually happened but I remember during Primus' set there were fires burning all around the hillside surrounding the stage and it seriously felt like I was in the lowest levels of hell, and was loving every second of it. Faith No More performed after Primus and I remember Patton throwing himself into backflips during the song Caffeine, when he sings "I'm warning you!" Was just mind blowing!

I never was into ween when they were popular but I listened to their stuff about 5 years ago and the mollusk was what I gravitated to the most

The Alternative Nation festival in Australia they talk about was amazing. In Sydney 2024 the Eastern Creek Raceway is now residential homes, Sydney has expanded exponentially. Ween smashed it, Primus were THE band to see, it was a great day that I can slightly remember as the acid I took wasn't too strong. I remember Pop Will Eat Itself were astounding.

We need a repress of this album and fast! Cd or vinyl, or preferably both. I tried to buy a used copy of it from Japan for 30€ (incl. shipping), but it never came. The post office probably screwed up once again. If it's gone for good then I hope it sank in to the bottom of the ocean and is now bringing joy to all the little mollusks and seacreatures down there.

One of my favorite albums of all time. Easily in the Top 5 albums of the 90s.

this is the best thing i've watched in a while

This seriously warmed my soul, thank you very much for this

Wow, Les's speaking voice is exactly the same as on the records.

Thanks for uploading this. Super cool!

love both these guys

Man this is a real historic gem. Thanks for sharing it!

Two of my favorite artists, it doesn't get better than this.

That was really pleasurable to watch. 2 incredible artists talking about their love of fishing.

Stoked to get two night of these fine gentlemen at Red Rocks in 2022. Can't wait.

Love this clip!

If Les and Mickey formed a band I wouldn't complain even a little.

They should do a two man project called, "Ween 'er Les".

Never seen this before! Thank you!

WEEN is like the Beatles in stature to me and Primus is its own category in my opinion.

Makes me happy to know these guys are friends, and of course, fishermen.

Freakin awesome, thanks for posting

Hey two of my favorite human beings fishing together and talking shop. What a treat.

Inspired my favorite TV show.

I've never seen this before. legit two of my favorite bands. My life is now complete.

Perfect Video, two geniuses and their love of fishing

Les comes from a long line of 🎵 "Pumpin' for the Man"🥁

Love this!

Why haven’t I seen this? Two of my favorite bands of all time

PRIMUS is probably my favorite band, ween is definitely top 5 bands for me as well. Would love to see them together again

This makes me happy.

My grandpa always told me, "the day I can't wipe my own ass, is the day I don't come home from fishing" sadly it didn't work that way, but the sentiment was powerful.

This was awesome

Really need you guys to make an ep

Priceless

I saw Les join dean ween band in Melbourne about 5 years ago. Great stuff . played the mollusk.

One of the more talented musicians to never put on airs

we need a fishing show with these two as hosts. now.

That's why we love these guys. They are just like us.

by the time youre 52 youve def got the face you deserve luv u weener

You wouldn't know it now, but these guys were big stars in the 90s.

Love this

i was at that Alternative Nation Festival, Melbourne Australia way back in '98, killer line-up, both these guys, FNM, Tool, The Tea Party Lou Reed and many more.

Every Ween album and especially The Mollusk made excellent soundtrack music back when I used to take fungal vacations.

of course these two are friends. awesome.

Ocean Man, need I say more ...oh yeah, The Mollusk is a psychedelic oceanic experience like tripping on a stonefish sting..🐟🐠🐳🦭🦈🦐🦞🦑🐙🦪🐡, did a pre show in Holland with the Ween guys ( Atak venue in the city of Enschede, Holland somewhere in the nineties), and these 2 guys got us flabbergasted with their stuff. Amazing legendary band!

two of the BIGGEST dudes

Awesome video

Greatest crossover of all time.

I love Primus. But over the years I've come to love ween more.

Thanks man!

Beautiful

Just saw Ween and Les Claypool's Frog's a few weeks between each other at the same venue here in Kansas City.

Wholesome

The walk in Wynona's Big Brown Beaver it's something I still do to this day

Dudes rock.

The Mollusk and Chocolate & Cheese are perfect albums.

That boat has two of the coolest people on the planet in it.

It's always the one we never knew would be good.

I want Les and Ween to do an album!

my sister bought me the Mollusk record, so great

incredible

Two greats

The Wondering Eyedojos lingered around 360’degree Pent > Angulos Pyramidal Laberintos …

I'm a big Ween fan and my brother is a big Primus fan, I will send him this link right away lol

A fantastic album.

A child without an eye.....

The fact that this was going to be a regular series and never transpired is such a shame. Imagine if Dean had been involved in a, "Trio De Twang"

Two goddamn legends.

I used to listen to The Mollusk all the time when I'd paint and draw. It's such a creative piece of work, it opens up my own creativity. If you're an artist, put it in your playlist for a muse. Or just listen to it because it's awesome, mang!

Information < knowledge < wisdom < truth < beauty < love < music < fishing. Fishing is the best.

Well that was lovely.

Thanks.

this is super cool
