Well last night was the Les Claypool concert at the Variety Playhouse. VERY VERY front row, I was literally the closest person to the stage. Here are some pictures I took. The show was fcking bad ass. Included his 4,5,6 string basses, a 4 string stand up, a bassjo, and the Whamola. At one point I was literally two feet away from being able to touch him, very awesome with him in his masks looking down over you killing his bass.
I also took two videos I will try to get uploaded for y'all. These were all taken from my Samsung D807 camera phone.
These are a few shots of Secret Chief 3, who of which opened for him.

Also there is a robot in a few pictures. This was some kid who made the costume out of a carboard box and crowd surfed up front, when Les saw him he told his roadie to bring him on stage inbetween songs.
Now on to the main event.:crazy:

He did wear an array of masks/hats. First was a derby with sun glasses, a pig mask, a monkey mask, an Elvis mask, and then a Safari hat. I hope you guys enjoyed these pictures as much as I did the show.:cheers:
EDIT- Here are the videos I took. One of his bassjo song, ''Iowan Gal'' and one of his playing the Whamola on the song ''Whamola''.
