Frontman Les Claypool talks about his love for the Canadian power trio — and Primus' show this Saturday in San Antonio. SanAntonio SATX SanAntonioTX Primus Rush SanAntonioMusic TexasMusic progrock SouthPark ThingsToDoInSanAntonio
It’s an admirable goal in music to be true to yourself, and Primus has consistently done that over a nearly four-decade run. The band’s sound is difficult to characterize but easy to recognize.
Each member of Primus brings his own set of musical influences to the party, and they don’t overlap much, save one band: Rush. So, it makes sense that the group — which toured with the Canadian power trio in the early ’90s — is currently performingin its entirety. The A Tribute to Kings tour includes not just Rush’s classic 1977 album in its entirety but also a full set of Primus originals. It stops at San Antonio’s Majestic Theatre on Saturday, April 16 with Battles in the opening slot.
Well, there are many memories of the Roll the Bones tour. I am one of those guys that’s afflicted with I-don’t-remember-anything-about-specific-venues-or-places. Whereas [Primus guitarist] Larry LaLonde could tell you what was on the deli tray and where we went to lunch that afternoon. He remembers every little detail. I do not. Tours tend to be a big blur to me.
If you guys — in some bizarro alternate universe — were contractually obligated to do a second Rush tour and you had to choose an album post-Well, first of all, we are living in an alternate reality. I don’t know if you’re watching the fucking news. Somebody has scripted this shit the past three years. It was written by Ray Bradbury or something. But I would pick. It was kind of the last Rush record for me before I went off and discovered the rest of the world of music.
