SUMMARY:State Theatre presents Claypool Gold
DESCRIPTION:State Theatre presents\nClaypool Gold\nfeat. Primus\, Les Claypool’s Frog Brigade\, The Claypool Lennon Delirium\n\nTue\, June 9\, 2026\nThompson’s Point\nDoors: 6:00pm – Show: 7:00pm – all ages\n$62 advance $70 day of show\n\n\nTICKETS\nLes Claypool will hit the road in Summer 2026 with Claypool Gold\, a wildly ambitious\, full-evening tour that brings together three of his most beloved and sonically adventurous bands – Primus\, The Claypool Lennon Delirium\, and Les Claypool’s Fearless Flying Frog Brigade – for one mind-melting musical experience. Each night\, all the bands will share the stage all at once for a fluid show featuring wildly different setlists and surprises. \nThe tour kicks off Wednesday\, May 20th in Reno\, NV\, and will travel coast to coast with over 25 shows in cities including Seattle\, Chicago\, Boston\, Austin\, Atlanta\, and Los Angeles\, before wrapping with a July 4th celebration in Napa\, CA. A special VIP and Artist Presale begins Wednesday\, January 21st at 10am local time\, followed by a general on-sale Friday\, January 23rd at 10am local. For more information and to purchase tickets\, visit https://www.lesclaypool.com/. \nFans can also access limited VIP packages\, including the Fat Bastard Front Row Super VIP Experience – featuring front row seats\, a pre-show Q&A with Primus and Sean Ono Lennon\, a signed limited-edition tour poster\, early entry\, and more – and the Lucky Bastard VIP Experience\, which offers premium seats within the first 15 rows\, merch perks\, and early access. Available in select markets. \nCoinciding with today’s tour announcement is the release of a brand-new song titled “WAP (What A Predicament)” by The Claypool Lennon Delirium\, Claypool’s mutant-psychedelic project with Sean Ono Lennon. A warped meditation on morality\, artificial intelligence safety\, and the slippery slope of optimization without empathy – set against a sonic backdrop of fuzz-drenched groove and theatrical psych-rock – the track finds Claypool and Lennon in peak Delirium form\, alternately biting\, bewildered\, and barbed as they reflect on a world gone algorithmic. Stream “WAP” https://atorecords-ffm.com/wap \n“Like a president caught in shenanigans with the beauty queen\,” Lennon intones on the opening line\, “I’m guessing they may not be so innocent as they’d have us believe.” From there\, the track spirals into existential musings on online chaos\, virtual unreality\, and the fragility of collective memory. “I’m not sure if history repeats\,” Lennon continues\, “but I’m certain that it rhymes.” \nThe Claypool Lennon Delirium centers on the core creative partnership of Les Claypool (Primus\, Fearless Flying Frog Brigade) and Sean Ono Lennon (The Ghost of a Saber Tooth Tiger)\, who have long operated on the outer rim of genre and reason. Together\, they remain a singular force: a mutant fusion of art-school satire\, warped vision\, and boundary-busting musical chemistry. \nThe new song arrives amid a remarkably prolific run for Claypool. In the past few years alone\, he’s led a full-scale reunion of his Fearless Flying Frog Brigade\, performing Pink Floyd’s Animals in its entirety across two national tours; celebrated his solo legacy with the Adverse Yaw: The Prawn Song Years box set (featuring Purple Onion\, Of Whales & Woe\, Of Fungi & Foe and more); and launched the Interstellar Drum Derby – a global open-call and wildly entertaining YouTube series chronicling Primus’ search for a new drummer. The search drew over 6\,200 applicants and culminated in the addition of Shreveport’s John Hoffman\, who has since joined Primus for a string of headline shows\, tour dates with Tool and Puscifer\, and the release of their explosive new single “Little Lord Fentanyl” featuring Maynard James Keenan. \nIn addition to playing guitar with the Colonel’s Fearless Flying Frog Brigade\, Lennon has also kept very busy. He’s performed in an improvising trio with John Zorn and Laurie Anderson; and under his own name\, released Asterisms\, a wild instrumental album on Zorn’s Tzadik Records\, which draws on psych rock and jazz. Besides his own music\, he produced Exotica\, the most recent album by British neo-psychedelic band Temples\, he received a Grammy award in 2025 for his design of John Lennon’s Mind Games boxed reissue\, and he wrote and produced a short animated film inspired by John & Yoko’s “War Is Over\,” which won an Academy Award in 2024. \nWith “WAP” now streaming everywhere and Claypool Gold poised to take over the summer\, fans are invited to grab their goggles\, their empathy\, and maybe a can of tuna – and prepare for a tour unlike anything else on Earth.
