Sad news from Blair this morning is that Adam and Camella’s beloved great dane Diablo passed away last night: I just received the sad news from Camella that great dane DIABLO passed away last night (peacefully after fighting bronchitis). Most people should have the adventures that Diablo had during his lifetime. The big fellow will surely be missed on this plane of existence. 🙁
Blair posted a one paragraph November Newsletter on Toolband/Army today, letting us know that Camella and Rynne have been on a Great White Shark Adventure and included a picture. He also mentioned to be thankful that Adam and Danny weren’t there. Perhaps they were busy doing something else…
Ronnie sent me an email today pointing me to Alan Jones‘ website (Adam‘s brother). On the Bits page it mentions: Doesn’t all good summer fun begin with some yard work? Doing some of that… but I did have some real fun in LA on my last trip. After getting all of my work done and closing a deal for Tool (GH4) I spent the last day of my trip in… Read More »Guitar Hero 4 Confirmed
Blair has posted the May 2008 Newsletter on Toolband/Army. It continues the May 2007 Newsletter regarding a trip to Mexico with Blair, Danny, Adam and a whole menagarie of the usual culprits. An interesting read, but don’t expect any Tool news or insight.
Blair from Toolband/Army took some time today to “clarify” an email he received questioning the April Newsletter – the one about the business meeting. Here’s his response: That mentioned in the April (1) newsletter had NOTHING to do with the all-Tool issue of “Revolver” Magazine, although at this time I am still not able to disclose any further information about any decision made by the band as to whether it’s… Read More »Two Tool Projects
According to an exclusive Toolarmy post: Good things are coming… Be patient… Don’t speculate… Good things are coming… Just relax… The post is accompanied by a picture take by Camella of a couple of deck-chairs on the beach, possibly sometime around sunset. I have no idea what this means. Should I or shouldn’t I speculate….
Butcher, featureing Adam‘s wife Camella, as well as Sasha are playing at the Knitting Factory in LA on the 16th of October. No word on who might be supporting the band, but apparently they will be debuting their new bass player. More details may be found on the Butcher website, though as I write this there are no further details than what I’ve already given you. Alterati have posted part… Read More »Butcher Show, Lustmord Interview
Last night I was in town and was taking a look through the magazine racks in Borders when I found the latest copy of Metal Edge magazine, the one containing the interview by Bryan Reeseman mentioned in yesterday’s post. Despite the outrageous markup on the magazine due to it being an import, I forked over my hard earned cash so i coudl share some of it with my Fourtheye readers. … Read More »Tool Opens Up – Metal Edge Interview
Bastardometer from Toolarmy sent me his review of the recent Shred School session with Adam Jones (minus pigtails). Here’s what he had to say: Adam was the last guy to give his presentation. After Herman Li (from Dragonforce) finished, Adam was up. They had a curtain that was behind the stage. I thought it was like any other stage were it was used for aesthetics, but they drew the curtain… Read More »Shred School Review
