Set 1 was all classic Primus, but set 2 kinda blew my mind. Ler switched to a white ES-335, doubleneck SG, and an acoustic, Les pulled out a black Rickenbacker 4001 and threw on a kimono. Then they proceeded to play Rush's A Farewell to Kings, note for note, top to bottom. And they absolutely killed it. I wouldn't call myself a Rush fan (or even a Primus fan for that matter), but they're definitely in my listening rotation, and I have the utmost respect for the musicianship. Geddy's voice fatigues my ear after a bit, so I only listen to them in small doses, usually. Les did a killer job on the bass (obv), the synths, and particularly with his voice, even got some of those way up there notes I figured he would have avoided.
They came out for an encore to chants of "Primus SUCKS!" and ended up playing like 5 more Primus tunes including Jerry was a Race Car Driver and My Name is Mud. Sick show.
Did any of the GGFbros see a show on this tour? I know it's almost over, but if they do this again, I highly recommend you check it out. Regardless of what you think of either band, I think you have to be impressed by the level of talent and musicianship.
