According to a post by wookubus from somewhere (presumably Toolarmy?):

Maynard James Keenan of Tool/Puscifer fame has been hinting in recent interviews that A Perfect Circle may reconvene next year to work on new material and presumably tour in support of it.

Not sure what to think of that.  Personally I’ll believe a significant APC reunion when I see it…

Christophe emailed me to mention that there are several Paul D’Amour bits and pieces floating around on the web these days.  Myspace has some unreleased Feersum Ennjin stuff there, and here’s a few Youtube links:

Finally, according to a recent Tweet from Maynard, Puscifer will be releasing an EP in early November.

MJK Tweets Puscifer Tour Info

Maynard recently tweeted a hint that there could be further Puscifer shows later this year:

Confirming a few Fall Dates. No East Coast. Sorry. Maybe next year. (Puscifer, in case that wasn’t clear or you’re lost.)

For those that are seasonally challenged, this means some time in September, October or November.  Hopefully Maynard will also find some time to help record a Tool album, as well as his duties on the vineyards.

As to the location – who knows.  If it’s not the East Coast, then I’d guess some larger towns on the West.  Possibly LA again?  San Francisco, San Diego, Seattle, Vancouver?

News Catch-Up!

I’ve been away for a few days, and have missed out on several little bits and pieces of Tool related news. No tour news though, which is what people really want!

Firstly, Maynard appears in the new movie Crank 2, which also features Danny Lohner, Mike Patton doing the soundtrack, and some dude from Linkin Park.  Thanks to Ziggy and AZB for the tips.

In another movie related item, apparently The Taking of Pelham 123 will have an A Perfect Circle remix appearing on the soundtrack.  Cheers Hurtfrog!

Maynard tweeted a couple of times, alluding to being in certain places at certain times.  Possibly Tool, everything is as vague as you’d expect:

Oakland/Fox Theater? Seattle/Moore Theater? June? Anything is possible.

And

Wine events coming to the Midwest, NorthEast and SouthEast. But No Puscifer shows in those areas yet. Sorry. Soon. Hold please.

And

Possible dates in the NorthWest.

Aaron Harris from Isis confirms the tracks that Adam appears on Wavering Radiant:

Aaron continued to explain the exact contribution Adam Jones did on ‘Waving radiant, “He just did some guitar and its not gonna be that recognizable, its not your typical guitar sounds. I think he used an ebo and effects. But it still has that signature Adam Jones sound to it.”

Now on what tracks does Adam Jones play what Aaron describes as “a whole fading frog sound”? The opening song ‘Hall of the Dead’ and the instrumental title track ‘Waving Radiant’.

That’s all for now – some news in regards to the Fourtheye shirts will be coming soon!

Just a reminder post for any readers who may not be aware that Fourtheye has a Twitter Account.  This feed offers an alternative way of getting information from Fourtheye, as every post I make is tweeted, as well as a few extras here and there than don’t quite deserve a full mention on the site.

Follow me now and if I beat Aston Kutcher to 2 million followers I’ll personally fly over to LA and punch him in the face!

And while we’re talking Twitter, here’s several accounts worth following:

The Pot video details

Mahamundra from Toolarmy pointed out a quote from the recent Guitar World interview with Adam Jones, and a recent tweet from Meats Meier as having something in common….

Adam Jones: We’re working on ‘The Pot’ but Ive been really lazy lately[Laughs]. The setup for it is a-lot more epic, so its actually good that we’ve been able to have more time. Its going to be all stop motion and in 3D. We’re doing it so that we can hopefully have it shown in the theater. A-lot more theaters are going digital and those projectors can do 3D. We have a *consultant who worked with us on the 3D packaging for 10,000 Days, and he was telling me that in 10 to 20 years you wont need goggles for 3D, you’ll go to the movie theater and everything will look 3D. Its almost holographic. Its really exciting. Sorry, gimme a chance to nerd out and I will [Laughs]

And from Meats:

I’m preparing for my huge meeting with TOOL tomorrow afternoon. Big things brewing…gulp

If anyone happens to have a copy of that interview with Adam Jones – let me know.   I’m yet to see the magazine surface here in Australia. Thanks all who responded – I now have a copy

According to a recent blog post on Myspace:

That’s right! The Melvins celebrate their Silver Anniversary this year! Lots of fun and surprises are coming! To kick off the festivities, the boys are doing some select shows performing the Houdini record in it’s entirety. One Mr. Trevor Dunn will be handling the bass duties while the Big Business boys are touring their new album “Mind The Drift”. Also along for the ride is original drummer Mike Dillard. The boys will play songs from the Mangled Demos record with Dale Crover playing the role of Matt Lukin! Check the show section for dates.

Date’s announced so far include:

  • 15 May 2009 Webster Hall NYC, New York
  • 16 May 2009 Paradise Boston, Massachusetts
  • 18 May 2009 Double Door Chicago, Illinois
  • 20 May 2009 Emo’s Austin, Texas

I’d be surprised if there weren’t any more shows to be announced.

Speaking of Big Business, a track from their upcoming album Mind The Drift can be heard on Myspace, and the drummer Coady has his own Twitter account too.  Hopefully some tour dates to come shortly.
