Oh My God, It's Primus!!!

When many people grow up, they become stressed and worried about the everyday occurances that happen in their lives. Some people manage to overcome these stresses while others become so overwhelmed that they take their own lives. In fact, the National Institute of Mental Health in the U.S. says that out of 100,000 from the ages of 20-24, 12.5 people commit suicide. One might say "Big deal, that's 12 people!". However, that person is forgetting that in the United States, there are millions of people between those ages, and so the number becomes much more substantial. A few guys that did not let the stresses of everyday life get to them were the members of the band known as Primus.

Primus has been around since 1984 and they know how to blend professional talent and skill with a sense of humour in order not to become overwhelmed by the realities of everyday life. All the members of the band display a high level of musicianship and thus it is obvious that they have all invested a great deal of time to develop such talents. However, with all the time they spent practising, they stayed true to themselves and did not allow themselves to get overwhelmed. They took what was important to them in life (ie. having fun) and found a way to blend these things in to their professional working lives. By watching the video, one can understand my point...



Need I say more?
