IUMA co-founder and major Primus freak Jeff Patterson is behind the wheel. We began in San Francisco and, after an hour on the road and fueled by strong coffee, are cruising through the one-horse town of Sebastopol. We've already passed by Petaluma, where the creep did the ugly deed to sweet Polly. Now we're back on the road. Ranch land stretches out in both directions.
Trees line the road.
There goes the Sequoia Drive-In. We're in search of Primus and somehow this back country, two-lane stuff feels right. The drizzle that is turning to rain feels right too. Primus is weird, make no mistake about that. Les Claypool is the leader of the three man band, a mix of country bumpkin and high tech sophisticate.
