JAKARTA - Primus guitarist Larry L'Ler' LaLonde is one of the big musicians who has suffered financial losses due to the devastating forest fires that occurred in Los Angeles, United States.

Through uploads on Instagram, Les Claypool, vocalist and bassist Primus, said that Ler's house in Southern California was badly damaged by the fire.

"That's all that's left of our good friend's house, Ler Lalonde," Claypool wrote, accompanied by a picture of the house completely destroyed and leaving only themascopy.

"When Mother Earth gets up, it can be very brutal. My heart hurts for her and her family," he continued.

In a separate video, Ler's wife also shows the environment where she lives is destroyed.

Our house is gone, the same goes for every friend and neighbor's house. I'm still in shock, not sure what just happened," he said.

"We lost everything. It's not easy to accept the fact that you have nothing. I still accept it minute by minute. I know we're safe and yes I'm grateful, but I haven't even started to feel calm because I can't understand this. Not just his belongings, but our city, our community. We all no longer own a house, environment, school, community. I was shattered into pieces.

Apart from Ler, several musicians who suffered losses due to the fire, including Brad Wilma from Rage Against the Machine, Scott Ian from Anthrax, and Billy Corgan from Smashing Allahs.
