By Jerry McGrathBe…Present. Marked words to open the concert. Maynard, in typical fashion, addresses the crowd. “Unplug” and instead “plug into each other”. A call to simply enjoy the next 3 hours of life for what it is. Put your phones away….stop recording life, and live it. Fronting Puscifer and A Perfect Circle, joined by Primus, all on stage at the same time, the next three hours were a whirl of musical mastery, as each band took turns through 3 distinct acts, entertaining the crowd.
