Les Claypool, bassist of many bands, including
Primus, collaborated with virtuoso guitarist
Buckethead,
Parliament/
Funkadelic keyboardist
Bernie Worrell, and former Primus drummer Brain (Bryan Mantia) under the name Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains (a combination of all the band members' names). They were first formed at the first Bonnaroo Music Festival in 2002. Worrell, Brain and Buckethead were there to perform with
Bill Laswell as
Praxis. Laswell was not able to play at the concert, so Claypool introduced them to jam with him.
