Tri-State Rock - Latest Updates

The last Primus video, which was their first in nearly a decade, was for the track "Tragedy's A' Comin'"off the group's equally new record, "Green Naugahyde" featured Les Claypool in a lobster-suit. While it might've - that statement shouldn't surprise you if you've been a fan of the eclectic 3-piece over their over two-decade tenure. 

So how you follow up Les Claypool in a lobster suit? Well, it seems you can't. That might be why the band opted for an animated video for 'Naugahyde's' second single, "Lee Van Cleef", a funky and massively bass driven tune (as most Primus songs are) about the iconic 20th Century film star. It's a catchy son of a bitch. 

This year’s Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival is set to be one of the summer’s biggest concert events.  With headliners Anthrax, Motorhead, Slayer, and the one and only Slipknot, it seems like this summer festival is any metal head’s wet dream.

Blink 182 has canceled their headlining Bamboozle performance.  The band canceled their performance because drummer Travis Barker must have an emergency tonsillectomy surgery.  My Chemical Romance will replace Blink 182's headlining position on Saturday May 19 at the Bamboozle Festival. The festival has released a statement about the lineup revision: 

"The Bamboozle 2012 has revised its lineup for Saturday, May 19 due an emergency tonsillectomy for Travis Barker.  Blink-182 will be greatly missed and all of us at The Bamboozle extend our thoughts and best wishes to Travis for a speedy recovery.

The Bamboozle is pleased to announce My Chemical Romance has been added to the lineup and will perform before the Foo Fighters on the main stage on Saturday.
