Maynard James Keenan's Sessanta celebrations kicked off in grand fashion last night (April 2nd). The three-way, collaborative package tour featuring A Perfect Circle, Puscifer and Primus brought Boston's excellently named Wang Theatre an epic taste of each project, not to mention their recent collaborative Sessanta E.P.P.P.
As expected, the bands took turns performing throughout the night, with A Perfect Circle starting things off, Primus taking the second slot, and Puscifer cleaning up the first round. They didn't exactly stick to that formation, though, as you can see through the mega-sized, 29-song setlist (courtesy of Setlist.fm) below.
The Sessanta tour's collaborative spirit saw Keenan jumping onstage to help Primus through the iconic, slap-metal funkiness of "Tommy the Cat," while Primus drummer Tim "Herb" Alexander leant two hands to A Perfect Circle on "The Hollow," and Les Claypool — wearing his finest Pork Soda mask — bowed his way through Puscifer's "Grand Canyon."
The show notably marked the live debuts of APC's "Kindred," Puscifer's "No Angel" and Primus' "Pablo's Hippos," the three tracks off the Sessanta E.P.P.P.
As is his way, Keenan asked concertgoers not to take photos or videos throughout the show, but he did finally grant folks permission to film and photograph the finale performance of Puscifer's "Grand Canyon." Watch fan-shot videos above and below.
The Sessanta tour rolls through the U.S. until the middle of May. You'll find the full run of dates over here.
