I'm glad that design of Adam's isn't for a Tool cover. It's a cool design and all, but with the way Tool's covers have been progressing it doesn't seem fitting.

Newsletter is out. It's Q & A style, done Blair style.

The date 7/3/15 might be of some importance or it may not. I don't know, Hellboy's much better at deciphering these things than I am.

Tool DVD, and hints at a tour, is what I gathered. Listing all the items tool would require for a live show, is similar to what bands really ask for when performing at a venue. Then another mention of someone asking them to perform in 2015. The date 7/3/15 has to be real

I think the guy that asked about Tool playing a backyard concert sent the poster along with his question. Then the band signed it. I think Blair is poking fun at this guy for thinking Tool was in his price range. Almost to the point of calling him stupid. Why did Blair put quotes around 'special events'? Blair gives a stupid answer because it seems he feels it's a stupid question, and then says the poster is already made... which is a ridiculous poster for a ridiculous request. I'm sure the poster will be sent back to the guy who sent in the question though so he can sell it on ebay.... maybe to raise enough funds to pay for the concert! The significance of July 3 is that it is the start of a holiday weekend and the guy sending the question probably thought TooL would cost more on July 4 :lol:

Q: "I recently read an article showing what some bands charge to play special events. How much would it cost for the band to play my BBQ this summer?"

THE REPLY:

Yes, some bands do play 'special events', including summer backyard barbecues. Bands like Heart, R.E.O., Styx and Cap'n Geech and the Shrimp Shack Shooters. But if you think a band like Tool will perform there, you're going to need to come up with $1,000.00 for each member, and another $500.00 for the crew. But that's just for starters. Ever heard of a "Rider?" Well, this would include (besides being able to eat anything they want at the barbecue), a case of imported beer, and a case of domestic beer (for the crew), Also, a case of assorted soft drinks and bottled glacier drinking water. I doubt that you've ever heard of a charcuterie board, but the name Oscar Mayer ought to be familiar within your refrigerated realm. Add to this 4 bags of premium tortilla chips, 2 containers of salsa, a fruit platter with crackers and humus dip... and bag (large bag) of Chips Ahoy or Sandies cookies. But, I'm not done, f**ker! After the show, the band and crew must be provided with no less than 5 (yep, 5) local pizza joint pizzas and free passes for a shallow water dolphin interaction. And this show doesn't include lasers, decoy tour coaches and glittering red squares (although the concert poster is already finished). If you can't do this, I suggest you call the management for "The Love Muffins" (with Foreigner as support). Hell, LM's keyboard player could even help you Liptonize those flippin' burgers...

"Signed Tool fans poster by BMB"

It was made by Blair.

Why would the fan draw a poster that says "Fan's BBQ"?

I'm not sure if Blair can draw that well :P
OK maybe it's a concert 'for the fans' in Danny's backyard where only golden ticket holders are permitted in.

Am I the only one who thinks the emails Blair replies to in newsletters like this one are fake? I always figured it was just his way of dropping hints at real news.

Yeah I was under the assumption it was Blair's handy-work.

But it would be nice if they sent it to him

Nah it's been brought up before. My guess is that a couple in every q & a are fake.

Golden Ticket prize? An invite to one of their summer BBQs and a performance/listen to new material? Why am I guessing?
