Ilike this one S.W

Hope Jilly eventually came back?

Hurray! Glad you liked it man. Don't know if she ever made it back, sounds pretty grim though, eh?

San Francisco rockers Primus remember the missing in the new video for "Jilly's on Smack," a song from this year's Green Naugahyde inspired by a friend of the band's who "disappeared into the world of heroin," singer Les Claypool says. Directed by Jordan Copeland (son of Police drummer Stewart Copeland), the clip sports a fittingly eerie vibe as it siwtches between shots of the band playing live and grainy found footage of family life, with a holiday theme. "Oftentimes it is the parents grandparents, siblings, etc., that feel the brunt of the heartache as they look at that empty dinner chair or Christmas stocking," Claypool says.

Thanks for the info S.W

I actually saw the clip in the exact way you described it so they did a good job with that song and that video.

The old slow has taken a few of my old friends away sadly.

Anyway, thanks for that. :)

Willy Wonka-inspired Primus and the Chocolate Factory With the Fungi Ensemble is out on October 21st, and mixed in with all the chocolate-colored records are five golden vinyl. Like the golden tickets in Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, stumbling upon the golden vinyl comes with a great reward: Free Primus concert tickets for life. In this video that pays homage to the film's opening credits, we watch as the records are formed, trimmed and printed while Les Claypool and company's rendition of "Golden Ticket" bounces along.

So , i'm wondering who (if any) has found this golden vinyl?

^I don't know if anyone has found one yet! I've been thinking about buying one, hope it's not too late. I bought the CD.
