Primus Announce New Year's Eve Shows

Primus‘s New Year’s Eve tradition continues with the eclectic multi-platinum alternative metal trio set to close out the year with two shows at The Fox Theater in Oakland, CA. These concerts have been been dubbed ‘The NYE Fisherman’s Chronicles Costume Ball‘, and will take place December 30th and 31st.

Openers include Limbomaniacs (12/30) and Beanpole (12/31). Fans attending are encouraged to dress as their ‘favorite seafaring representative.’ As Primus put it, ‘Be it some freakish scaly bastard siren or banshee, or a brave soul who rides the tides a master at sea, come dressed as your favorite seafaring representative!’

Pre-sale tickets and VIP packages will launch tomorrow, September 11th at 10:00am PST. The public onsale will follow this Friday, September 13th at 10:00am PST. If that’s not enough to sate your desires for all things Les Claypool, the Primus vocalist/bassist will be performing a set from his Les Claypool’s Bastard Jazz project as part of next year’s ‘Big Ears‘ festival. That event will run from March 27th-30th in Knoxville, TN.
