Geddy and Alex at Primus in Toronto last night

[blueschica]

Primus, with Geddy's friend Les Claypool, has been on tour this spring playing their way through all of the Farewell to Kings album.  Ged and Alex attended the show last night at Massey Hall.  Nice to see photos of them!  Love #1 with Ged and Alex still conspiring after all these years.

From Ged's Instagram-

"On Friday night we had the joyful experience of reuniting with our grand pals from Primus… Les, Ler, Herb and their gang… We sat side stage as they immaculately worked through a cool selection of classic Primus tunes which brought back fond memories of our touring together back in the early 90’s and then we were treated to the weird and wonderful experience of watching them perform our music: A Farewell to Kings in it’s entirety. Totally nailed it! They did us proud and we thank them deeply for the tribute and the lasting friendship. "

My niece recently saw that show in Tennessee.   She couldn't stand the first set, but she loved the Rush set.

That would probably be my opinion if I went as well.  I've tried to listen to their original stuff but not much grabbed me to pursue it further.  How cool to hear AFTK all the way through though!

Nice 

Pity they didn't make a cameo onstage but that would've been a very un-Rush thing to do

I hear that band sucks.

This brought a tear to my eye. Primus is hilarious in a good way.

That must be a wild experience for both of them. And probably made them feel their age.
