A few things came across my desk today, none of which are particularly exciting and warrant their own post. Firstly, there’s a set of gig posters from the last Tool tour up on Ebay. Located in the UK, the complete set starts at £100, or you can buy it now for £200. Next up Blair‘s Myspace page has a few interesting photo’s added recently, the most interesting of which is… Read More »Stuff that you might be interested in

Reports from the K-Rock Centre website suggest that Tool are playing in Kingston, Ontario in Canada on the 4th of August. Tickets go on sale this Friday at 10am local time. This gig is not confirmed on Toolband as I write this.

For a detailed look into how the day went, read on… I arrived 4:25pm, with at least what looked like a hundred people online outside the building.

Rohan messaged me today to let me know he found a vinyl copy of Ænima signed by Danny on Ebay. Bidding starts at US$300! [17:05] <@heebsmagee> also

Some have suggested this is a bootleg of some kind, which would come as no great surprise to me. Anyone got… Read More »Yellow Aenima Vinyl on Ebay
Blair has posted the May Tool Newsletter up on Toolband (not announced in the news – visit the newsletter page directly). It talks about Mormonism and the upcoming Salt Lake City show, but probably won’t do anything but frustrate those of you with little patience for Blair’s writings.
