Friday, May 10
Maybe Les Claypool thought Primus was feeling a little flat. The band needed to be filled out a bit. Whatever it was, a crowd of lucky Humboldtians — the ones lucky enough to snatch up tickets early — will crowd into the Eureka Municipal Auditorium on Friday for Primus’ new, state-o’-the-art stage show … IN 3D!
In the Fuse-produced video below, get a sneak peak of what Primus’ 3D stageshow is like and learn what role George effin’ Lucas played in its genesis.
