While 3D films have become commonplace, alt-rock oddballs Primus have been giving the trend a unique spin with their 3D live tour. Having debuted the spectacle last year, they will bring it back in 2013 for a spring tour that includes a few Canadian dates.
At each show, audience members will be given 3D glasses. A press release promises that the performances — which were created with 3D Live from Burbank, CA — will offer a "one-of-a-kind psychedelic experience" featuring Quad Surround Sound.
See the schedule, which features Canadian stops in Edmonton, Calgary, Winnipeg and Toronto, below. The trip includes some non-3D shows, so pay close attention to the asterisks. These gigs are in support of last year's Green Naugahyde.
Also below, see the schedule for singer-bassist Les Claypool's Duo De Twang. Unfortunately, there are no Canadian stops on this outing.
