Caught a bit of the Claypool Gold tour. Worst money I ever spent.

Got bored and decided to make a “Logo” for Hoffer

I snapped a photo at one of the shows on their most recent tour with John’s kit reflecting in his glasses. I thought it was a neat concept for a logo. Here’s what I came up with.

Note: AI helped me execute the concept. I know that’ll bug some people but I can’t draw worth a damn.

Claypool Gold posters--a sucky review.

Now that the dust is settling on the excellent Claypool Gold musical extravaganza, I would like to take the opportunity and evaluate the posters. Each city gets one, and some are better than others. Just a quick best/worst list.

Best

  1. St. Louis--bugged out American Gothic! St. Lou has been getting some good posters in recent years. The wonkey catfish from '24 is a personal fave.

  2. Peltham, TN--love the orange and light blue contrast.

  3. North Charleston--Cage captures the essence of 'tool for hillbillies'. And a wonkey catfish always helps the cause.

  4. Dillon, CO (first night I think)--A wonkey diamondback sturgeon!

  5. Long Beach--the purple dragon is cool.

Honorable mention: Napa. I would love to have that on the wall.

Not Best

Phoenix-I just don't get it.

Portland, Maine--It just looks minor league.

Missoula, Montana--see minor league comment above.

Atlanta, GA--I can't figure out what I'm looking at. Its a no.

Reno, NV--The tour starts out with a clunker.

The wife and I attended the Irving, TX show, and I got one of the posters. I'd say it is a mid range poster for this tour. I like the orange accents.

Claypool Gold 2027: Sausage/Holy Mackerel/Primus

Sausage:
Les
Todd Huth
Jay Lane

Holy Mackerel:
Les
MIRV Haggard
Bob Cock (Adam Gates)
Bryan “Brain” Mantia

Primus:
Les
Larry “Ler” LaLonde
John “Hoffer” Hoffman

One can dream… Imagine the sit-ins during the Primus set? Still have Hoffman be the predominant drummer (because he’s absolutely killing it) but one Brown/Antipop song a set with Brain and one Naugahyde tune with Jayski per set, and then a massive encore with 3 drummers on stage. I personally thought that Holy Mackerel sounded great at the 2024 Claypool Gold shows.

The Frog Brigade is awesome!!

I saw Claypool Gold in Chicago on June 3rd and I have been obsessed with listening to the Frog Brigade ever since, after hearing them for the first time.

Now in hindsight I wish they played Phantom Patriot, D's Diner, and Up on the Roof for us...I'm constantly listening to these songs now, such bangers!
