Primus reschedules A Tribute to Kings Rush tribute tour to summer 2021

Fri, Jun 26, 2020@9:41PM | comments

Primus announced earlier today that their planned 2020 A Tribute to Kings Rush tribute tour, that had been due to kick off last month, has been officially postponed to the summer of 2021 due to COVID-19. The tour will honor the band's musical heroes Rush where they'll cover the A Farewell to Kings album in full every night, before playing a full set of Primus classics. From primus.com:

Third time is the charm...we've postponed this Tribute to King's tour twice now. Once because we opted to help send Slayer on their way into retirement and once because mother nature decided to slap us all into isolation with a nasty virus. This time I will get to go out there and get my "Geddy on". I've got my Ricky shined up and have been practicing my Moog licks. 2020 has proven to be one nasty kick to the crotch on many levels. This nation is divided beyond anything I've ever seen; from who's wearing masks or not to who's treating folks with common dignity...or not. Let's hope 2021 will resolve us all into some form of unity. As far as touring, it will be nice to be back in the saddle again, see y'all next summer..."Geddy up!" - Les Claypool

All 2020 tickets will be honored for the new dates, which can be viewed on the band's website. If you are a ticket holder and cannot make the new show, you will receive an email directly allowing you to request a refund.
