[UPDATE 10/5/23]: Primus, A Perfect Circle, and Puscifer have expanded their collaborative Sessanta tour celebrating Maynard James Keenan’s 60th birthday.
After previously announcing a run of seven shows in the Western U.S., the majority of which have already sold out, the bands added dates around the East Coast and South, though the newly announced shows come before the West Coast run.
“Although I am slowly going deaf with all the rock song touring, and the aging and what not, the thunderous cacophony of whining and crying from the places we aren’t playing Sessanta was heard loud and clear,” the Tool singer said. “But instead of being a grumpy old fart and calling you all a Waahhhmnulance, we decided to book a few more shows.”
Among the new dates are stops in Raleigh, NC (4/7); Alpharetta, GA (4/9); Franklyn, TN (4/10);, Irving, TX (4/12); and The Woodlands, TX (4/13). Additional dates will be announced soon.
Tickets for the newly announced shows will go on sale on Friday, October 6th at 10 a.m. local time. Click below for a full list of tour dates. For more information and to purchase tickets, head here.
9/16/23: Tool singer Maynard James Keenan is turning 60 and to celebrate, he’s taking his other two bands, A Perfect Circle and Puscifer, on the road along with Primus for the Sessanta tour, a special joint outing that will see the groups rotate lineups on the fly and collaborate on stage each night. The tour will mark A Perfect Cirlce’s first shows in five years.
“Bands aren’t used to simultaneously sharing the stage with other bands, but if anyone can do it, it’s Primus, A Perfect Circle, and Puscifer,” Keenan said of the tour’s unusual format, which according to press materials, features a distinct set from each group with “musicians from the trio of bands joining each other’s performances throughout the concert.”
The run consists of seven shows, kicking off in Phoenix, AZ on Keenan’s birthday on April 17th, followed by stops in San Diego (4/18), Los Angeles (4/20), Berkeley (4/21), and West Valley City, UT, and culminating with two nights at Red Rocks Amphitheare on April 25th and 26th.
Tickets for the Sessanta tour featuring A Perfect Circle, Puscifer, and Primus are on sale now. Check out a humorous promo clip for the tour below.
Prior to the joint tour, Keenan will join Tool for a run of fall tour dates beginning October 3rd in Loveland, CO. For more information and to purchase Tool tickets, visit the band’s website.
