Primus is extending their Rush tribute tour well into 2022 with a handful of new dates. The new dates are supported by Battles, Black Mountain, and The Black Angels depending on what date you're attending. Much like the 2021 iteration, Primus will perform Rush's entire 1977 album A Farewell To Kings followed by a set of their own material.
"Hemispheres was my first concert," said Primus bassist and vocalist Les Claypool. "Originally we'd always kind of joked around about doing Hemispheres, but we settled on A Farewell To Kings, because A) it was the first Rush record I ever heard and B) it contains 'Cygnus X-1', which has always been my favorite Rush tune. It seems to be a good one for us to tackle; 2112 seemed a little obvious."
