Primus is now planning to kick off their tour, originally scheduled for last year, this August. The tour will showcase Primus playing Rush's 1977 album A Farewell To Kings in full, alongside openers Wolfmother on all dates and The Sword on some of 'em.
"Finally, the clouds are parting, the planets are aligning, the dough is rising… whatever metaphor floats your preverbal boat, Primus is going on tour again," said vocalist and bassist Les Claypool. "We were poised and ready for a massive, bent-rock extravaganza when the gremlins of covid came and yanked the rug out from under us all.
I personally have been climbing the walls like a shit-house rat and, after my first season off in 30 some odd years, I’m very anxious and excited to stand in front of the microphone with my four string piece of furniture and belt out some girthy ditties to sweaty throngs of punters."
