Primus’ New Drummer Names Lars Ulrich the Greatest of All Time, Removes a Drumming Legend

Primus’s new drummer John Hoffman shared a funny post on Instagram about the greatest drummers

of all time. He joked by putting Lars Ulrich at number one on a famous ranking list and

removing Ginger Baker, saying it was only meant to spark discussion. Hoffman recently

became Primus’s drummer after winning a tough audition with over 6,000 applicants.

Now touring with the band, he’s gaining attention for both his drumming skills and his sense

of humor.
