We all came out to Montreux
On the Lake Geneva shoreline
To make records with a mobile, yeah
We didn’t have much time now
Frank Zappa and the Mothers
Were at the best place around
But some stupid with a flare gun
Burned the place to the ground
Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky
(Smoke) on the water, you guys are great

Californian funk-metal vets PRIMUS made/make a plethora of racket since 1984.
Over the years they came up with 9 albums, of which The Desaturing Seven (2017)
is the newest one.
They toured way more than they made records, and they
still set stages on fire, mostly in their home country.
This year’s tour started in April.
They will take a short break and return this Summer.
Primus fans know they take pride in letting designer artists create tour/concert posters.
For this tour they also came/come up with awesome posters for most of the shows, which are put up for sale at the concert. Here are three.

The imperishable rock legends will visit North America for the last time.
The tour is billed as the ‘The Song Is Over North America Farewell Tour’,
a reference to their classic 1971 track. When asked if they’ll tour the UK
and Europe too singer Roger Daltrey answered vaguely that it can or
can’t happen.
“The historic 2025 ‘The Song Is Over’ tour will mark the final face-to-face celebration
of this timeless connection with North American Who fans, forever appreciative of the
band’s ability to dispense with nostalgia and deliver authentic rock moments time and
time again.”

Still one of my favorite who-hoo tracks.
Ex-The Smiths guitar hero JOHNNY MARR who played/worked with countless
bands/artists (Modest Mouse, The Pretenders, Bryan Ferry, The Cribs and many
more) after that legendary band broke up, and who released his newest, fourth
LP Fever Dreams Pts 1-4 in 2022 keeps on playing live for the past years.
This summer he’ll shines his light that never goes out on a couple
of festivals and he will travel next fall to Europe for a handful of
dates.
For the occasion TUTV dived into the archives for these photos of
the man, playing Lokerse Festival in Belgium 9 years ago, in 2014.

On 7 March, Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta aka
LADY GAGA released her 7th LP, titled MAYHEM.
She had no plans (really??) to tour the album, but changed her mind following
the phenomenally positive response to Mayhew. So, seemingly, in a matter of
weeks a massive world tour was puzzled together. Wowzers. Miracles happen.
