Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson were on hand at Toronto's Massey Hall on Friday (May 13) to witness Primus performing Rush's classic album, A Farewell To Kings, in its entirety.
Geddy Lee took to Instagram to share his thoughts, writing: "On Friday night we had the joyful experience of reuniting with our grand pals from Primus… Les, Ler, Herb and their gang… We sat side stage as they immaculately worked through a cool selection of classic Primus tunes which brought back fond memories of our touring together back in the early 90’s and then we were treated to the weird and wonderful experience of watching them perform our music: A Farewell to Kings in it’s entirety. Totally nailed it! They did us proud and we thank them deeply for the tribute and the lasting friendship."
