Blair posted the April Newsletter today, which was pretty short and confirms four tour dates – the three festivals and Salt Lake City. He mentions that he will be posting other info on Toolarmy for a change. So far only one post I can find, which suggests he knows the dates for the summer tour, and that there are no LA dates at this stage. LA fans need not freak out as he mentioned a possible “SoCal venue (a bit off the beaten track)”.
Given that he appears to know the dates now, I’d expect a tour date release to be imminent.
Also to be found on Toolarmy recently are plenty of posts from Jr, one of the Tool Stage Crew. Nothing revealing as far as dates or releases go, but quite interesting for those curious about how the Tool tour machine works.
Sweet, Blair is now referring people here for the best tour news.
I mistakenly and drunkenly registered for tool army maybe two years ago before I knew what a terrible rip off it was. I have logged on maybe five times over the years because I have no idea how to navigate that site. All it seems to have is some lame message from maynard saying some stupid shit about whatever. Anyone else have this problem, where do you find the newsletter, where is the message board, where are juniors posts, where are blairs posts? Can someone fill me in please or is that what you get for fourty dollars? Also why am I not suprised we know of more dates than blair will officially confirm. First it was supposed to be on april fools, then it was supposed to be on the date lolla was confirmed, now it is supposedly tomorow. This is really starting to get old. Are they secretly trying to lose fans?

C’mon, it’s not that hard to navigate around Toolarmy. Perhaps you should try it sober.
The link to the Newsletters section is found on the News page (same as on Toolband). On the same menu is a link to the Notes From The Crew section which features some of Jrs stuff.
To find more specific posts form Blair and Jr, just go the members list, find them, and you’ll see all the posts they’ve made. You can even add them to your friends list to find the easier in the future.

If anything this is my fault for suggesting that we might see the dates then. At no stage has Blair or Tool promised that tour details will be delivered on any given date.
But I suspect your point is more general frustration with Tool news – I agree, they should do a better job here. But for that last 15 years it’s been much the same, so why the expectation for something different?
