I PRIMUS hanno annunciato il tour “A tribute to the gods“, nel quale oltre ad alcuni loro classici suoneranno per intero l’album “A Farewell To Kings” dei RUSH.
Il bassista e leader dei PRIMUS, Les Claypool, dichiara:
“Poco più di un anno fa io e Ler Lalonde iniziammo a parlare del’idea di tenere degli show suonando uno dei dischi RUSH che avevamo ascoltato nella nostra infanzia. Siccome ‘A Farewell To Kings’ è il primo album che ho ascoltato e contiene il mio pezzo preferito dei RUSH, ‘Cygnus X1’, la scelta è stata pressochè obbligata”.
