According to SignOnSanDiego there was a crush at the Street Scene concert in San Diego last night during the Tool set. Around 15 people were injured and sent to hospital despite pleas from Maynard for the crowd to take it easy.
I don’t think I really have to say this to Fourtheye readers, but if you’re at a Tool gig, show a little decorum and don’t just mindlessly rush the stage to be near your heroes. Having been involved in crushes in the past, it sure isn’t fun for the people at the front.

Wembly Stadium huh….anyone would think Tool are bigger than Jesus!
Blair‘s posted plenty of new tour dates on Toolband, including some East Coast US Dates, and some more European dates. Also confirmed was that Tool will be playing in Athens in December, though the venue is TBA. Apollo has blessed you.
There’s been lots of interest in the Vicarious video, and when it would be released. In response to this, Chronographer on Toolarmy posted a link to an interview with Adam, where he says they needed to hire a new CGI Team, with the implication that the onld one was crap. Expect the video (and DVD?) later this year…..
Blair makes a couple of posts today, including one TA exclusive one about a show in on September the 3rd. I can’t really follow what’s going on, something about drug busts at the last show. Lay off the weed Blair!
Australia get’s a bit of loving from Blair as well. He says that while no dates are confirmed at the moment, he says “I wouldn’t worry too much about Tool performing in one of their favorite places on the earth”.
He also goes on to mention that there’s a new shirt available in the Bazaar, called EYE-XAXAAR. Despite the wierd name, it’s a pretty normal shirt with some of the 10,000 Days artwork on it. Here’s pic for you lot to enjoy:
Moon tells me that there’s now 3 French dates confirmed. Check this site for details. Here’s the dates:
Looks like a few more European dates are cropping up. Thanks to Blksun from Toolarmy for these:
I’m sure more will appear in the next few days.
Edit: The Italians dates are:
Thanks to Mattia
of places that will being seeing Tool before we see them here in Australia. Damn you!
Thanks to the Tool Hotline for letting me know that Tool will be playing at the Point Theatre in Dublin on the 22nd of November. That certainly confirms Maynard comments about Tool coming back to Europe in November. Tickets may be purchased at Ticketmaster.
While all you us Aussies construct our voodoo dolls to exact revenge on the band members, here’s a picture of Jason with the Net of Being print that recently arrived. Nice Glasses!
CorpseGrindeR sent me an email this morning outlining a pre-sale for the Tool show in LA’s Staples Center on the 7th of December. This sale takes place on Friday the 21st of July, and is on the internet only. Get in before it’s too late! It’s a shame Toolarmy hasn’t been as pro-active with their pre-sales, though I’d guess there may be a similar system in place for the upcoming tour that was used for the warm up shows, ie- a lottery for local fans held the day before the show.
The good people at The Tool Hotline and Bastardometer both posted a link to some pictures from Tool‘s recent Swedish show. Some great ones there, so check them out!
The Betterfly was lucky enough to go to the recent Tool show in Finland. As if that wasn’t good enough, Betterfly managed to catch one of Danny‘s drumsticks. Here’s a couple of pics for you all to enjoy!
