Two celebratory concerts were staged at the Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the hit TV series South Park. Joining co-creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker onstage were Primus and Ween at various points of the show, as well as Rush legends Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson.
The sets spanned 30 songs or more, including covers of Primus, Ween and Rush songs, but the majority of each night was dedicated to songs that have been featured in South Park episodes across its 25 seasons, as well as the show’s theme song (which was originally composed by Primus) as well as selections from the movie South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut.
Meanwhile, “America, Fuck Yeah” from Stone and Parker’s 2004 film Team America: World Police served as the encore at the Aug. 9 and Aug. 10 concerts.
Among the standout South Park episode song choices were “Lemmiwinks,” as featured in the Season 6 episode “The Death Camp of Intolerance,” “Let’s Fighting Love” from the Season 8 episode “Good Times With Weapons” and “Have You Heard About My Robot Friend?” from the Season 8 episode “Awesom-O.”
