Meats Meier’s new video fro the Puscifer track The Mission is now streaming on Shockhound….
A few videos have come over my desk the last few days, and I’m finally getting around to posting them.
The first are a range of videos from the recent Danny Carey, Aloke Dutto, Terry Bozzio drum clinic in Kansas. There’s a stack of them out there, but here’s the best I found:
There’s also a video Maynard talking about his winery and the viability of the industry in Northern Arizona.
I cam across an interesting Blog Post on Meats Meier’s Myspace account, where he talks about some of the animations he did for Tool and their live shows. Brief, but worth reading (and watching).
Ganjalf contacted me today and told me that according to the recent Guitar World interview:
Jones: We’re working on “The Pot,” but i’ve been really lazy lately. The setup for it is a lot more epic, so it’s actually good that we’ve been able to have more time. It’s going to be all stop-motion and in 3D. We’re doing that so we can hopefully have it show in the theater.
Not sure how he actually got this info, since the magazine hasn’t been released yet. Will confirm this once I am able to read a copy of the interview myself.
Joel emailed me to let me know that the live performance by The Melvins recorded at Amoeba Records in Hollywood is now up on their site. It includes a pretty good interview with the four of them (it’s the lineup featuring Big Business) and several live tracks, and in what seem to be reasonably high definition. Enjoy!
Brian emailed me this quote today, apparently taken from a new interview with Maynard in Revolver:
Adam is working on a new video at the moment. I can’t say for what song. When that winds down, we’re gonna try to get back in the writing space. When we’ve actually picked an engineer you’ll have an idea that there might be a record coming someday.
Any speculation on what video is forthcoming? I’ve heard that The Pot is the likely candidate, but it would be cool so see something for one of their longer songs – perhaps Lost Keys/Rosentta Stoned?
I’ve only watched the first few minutes of this video (and none of part 2) on Wine Library TV, but it would appear to have an extensive interview with Maynard and Eric in regards to their wine making exploits. Thanks to Justin for the tip!
Justin mailed me links to a couple of videos from the upcoming Guitar Hero: World Tour release. They feature two players in a drum-off to the Tool songs Parabola and Vicarious. Enjoy!
A couple of things have passed my desk today.
Firstly there are a couple of new articles up on Toolband, on talking about Blair and Danny‘s trip to Maynard‘s vineyard. Apparently this will be the covered in more detail in the next newsletter. Blair also tells the tale of Danny losing $400 in a ATM recently after being asked for an autograph. Oh the stories we hear when there is no real Tool news!
Secondly SOTRAB tells me that Danny‘s website will be updated soon, and mentions that “it is all in 3d and is absolutely amazing…. the fans are going to love it!”. No idea this will happen but apparently soon….
Finally a new Notes from the Crew post on Toolarmy has been made, this time referring to work being done, snow thawing in May in Vermont and other stuff such as “Junior and I did a lot of hard, brutal work this summer for a band that for matters related to confidentiality contracts will go un-named at this time.” What this all means I don’t know, but some people have been speculating that some kind of Tool video is being made, possibly for Rosetta Stoned. All will be revealed in time I guess…
