Cool! So they just walk around the place before/after they play? Never been there, how many people usually show up when Danny's playing?

They're usually focused on setting up prior to the show, but once set up (and before they actually play) they're just hanging out, talking to friends, fans, etc. In between sets is typically the best time to chat though, as the second set usually ends about 1:00 AM and they're looking to break down and get out at that point. Also, the crowd thins a bit after the first set so it's a much more relaxed setting.

Last night was the 4th time I've seen the Doug Webb Allstars, and as it was a Friday it was a packed house. My guess is about 100 people max can fit in that place.The first time I saw them I think it was a Sunday or Wednesday night, and there weren't too many people there: maybe 25. Just sitting in a small room with a few people watching the drummer from my favorite band having a great time playing some Jazz fusion with some great musicians. Definitely recommend it if you ever have the opportunity.
So Long, and Thanks for All the Tool.

Yeah. There is no dressing room or backstage area, so there's nowhere else to be.

Thanks nxrm for the info. Glad Danny is cool enough to talk to the fans and share a little info. Damn it though, I wish Danny didn't say last fall on the Late Show with Seth Myers, "that the album will be out soon." 2018 ain't soon even by glacial time.

No offense, but at this point it's kind of on you if you get your hopes up about a vague statement like that from a Tool member (other than Maynard (and possibly Justin)).

Looks like the clickbait-y sites are starting to run with nxrm's news:

That Brett Buchanan guy is a really big fucking TOOL. Everything he posts is other people's work. He also has a very punchworthy face!

Let us not forget that Danny also said that they plan to "hit the studio in the fall" way back in 2011 or 2012.

Wake me up in 2018 or 2019.
- You like noisy music?
- Yes. The louder the better. Stops me from thinking.
- You don't like to think? What do you like?
- Never thought about it.

It blows my mind that Adam posting a picture of lobsters equals us getting a new album. The "evidence" they've used to connect the dots is just stupid.

I'm gonna have to go into hiding if Danny was messing around with me and there is a new/secret album on the way. :lol:

How has no-one guessed that the surprise guest will be the band "Surprise" with BMB on keyboards?
Seems like a no-brainer to me.

Tool fans are silly. There will still be some who will say he's just covering up the "real" story.
Congrats hellboy and nxrm, you have both made the official alt rock news....alternative nation! When's the meet n greet?


http://www.alternativenation.net/tool-r ... new-album/



Also, This was from 13 months ago, Justin "confirmed" the new double album in the fall. This wait is fun....Happy May, happy Tool return to the NE!

"The moderator of TOOL's official web site recently visited the band's rehearsal loft and offered an update on the progress of their long-awaited new album. He wrote: "At this stage of the writing/arranging process... there are only a couple of 'shorter' songs left to complete (?), along with a segue or two or three." He added, "Of course, we need to keep in mind any changes that might be needed to accommodate the vocals, etc., once all of the arrangements are finished."

That would be really cool actually. At the very least, he can hopefully make it the San Bernardino show.

*And, speaking of Blair, I just noticed that the April Newsletter is up in the Newsletter section. :)

I know right?! Don't they know I have feelings too? The Metal Sucks comments have been the best so far though.

It'll be old news soon enough, as the next rumor is just around the corner. The announcement of the Special Guest should be a welcome diversion as well.

Thanks for the support guys and gals!!! If you need me I'll be reading that Batman comic book I've been hearing so much about.

Actually, now that I've thought about it more...that would be extremely depressing.
