Another Danny Carey “Documentary”, APC dates coming soon!

Update: It’s come to my attention that I’ve posted this already. It’s worth watching again anyway for good measure…

Aaron Harris tweeted today that he found a series of videos about Danny, recorded sometime around 1996/97. I haven’t had a chance to watch it yet (work has banned Youtube!) but I hear it’s worth watching! Here’s part 1:

And Part 2, Part 3 and Part 4

Speaking of Twitter, Maynard tweeted a little while ago saying that there really are some A Perfect Circle tour dates coming soon. Only US and Canadian ones though, so Europeans and Australasians shouldn’t get too excited!

News from the interwebs

There have been a few small things happening on the web that may interest you Fourtheye readers.  Here we go:

  • Maynard gave us a short Puscifer update on the Puscifer website of all places:
    • V is for Vagina
      HAPPY V DAY! 02/14/11:
      Lot’s Brewing behind the curtain. Working on new tunes, new vids, new trinkets, and a new show for the Fall. Updates to follow.

  • All of HuntingtonSt’s Youtube videos have been removed and his account deleted.  Reading between the lines, it appears he decided he could get away with posting copyrighted material, presumably Blood Into Wine or Volto! related.  It’s a shame he decided to do this, as the result is the loss of a large collection of live Tool bootlegs, which wasn’t really the offending material.  Oh well, the nature of the internet means these will be uploaded in due time…
  • There’s a whole bunch of Tool tour photos on Toolarmy.
  • I meant to say in my Tool poster article last night, that word is any leftover signed BDO tour posters will be sold via Toolband or Toolarmy.

That’s all for now.  I might get around to finishing writing my Big Day Out tour wrap up this weekend so stay tuned!

Maynard discusses wine, Adam Jones Metallica poster

Maynard spoke with the guys on Australia’s Wine Week in Melbourne the other day, and in part 1 of this interview he chats about a range of wine related topics:

Adam provided the artwork for one of the posters in the current issue of Guitar World.  Tim was kind enough to take a photo of it for us:

Looks pretty cool to me – if I see it in the newsagent I think I’ll grab a copy! 

My Tool trek has finished for now – only one more show left, tomorrow night at the Perth Big Day Out.  Western Australian’s don’t miss out on this amazing show!

Tool Practise Clips

Maynard has posted a couple of Tool rehearsal clips similar to the ones he did recently for A Perfect Circle.  It shows the band playing sections of Lateralus and EBA/The Patient.  They are embedded below for your viewing pleasure!

EBA & The Patient

It’s also worth noting that the Notes From The Crew section on Toolarmy has been updated.

Update: And here’s clip 3!

Danny makes Patton look short

Proving once more that exciting things happen when I go away – it appears that Danny jumps up on stage with Faith No More at their recent gig in LA.  Tool bad he didn’t get behind the drumkit:

Two of my favourite bands united – I wonder if Tool and Faith No More would ever really tour together…

In other news:

  • Blood Into Wine is on Netflix (everyone can stop sending me emails now…)
  • There’s a test pressing of The Melvins Bride Screamed Murder up on Ebay – proper vinyl to be release in January.
  • Sounds like tickets to the Tool gig in Melbourne in February are finally being sent out.  Thanks Ticketmaster!  Jakob are 100% confirmed as the support by the way (sideshows only).
