fanbois going to extremes.
i dont know why you would buy this
Why would anyone buy anything? Because they attach some kind of value to it.
I personally wouldn’t but the target, though I’ll happily admit I’ve purchased other Tool merchandise because I felt them to be a worthwhile item. How is collecting Tool merchandise any less valid than collecting baseball cards, guitars or any number of items?
I’m sure both of you guys (and most likely everyone here on the Fourtheye) have some kind of hobby that they feel justified in pouring lots of money into. Why should collecting Tool stuff attract the scorn of alleged Tool fans?
^Because lots of people like to act tough via the internet. No one ever really sees who you actually are so you can denounce or criticise anything you like in a desperate attempt to look ‘cool’. Classic example: when 10,000 Days first came out there was a poll on Toolshed regarding people’s satisfaction/enjoyment of the new album. Numbers-wise, just about everyone who voted really enjoyed it yet there were hundreds of posts complaining about how the new album ‘sucked’. If a person keeps criticising everything, it somewhat gives the illusion that they have very high standards and thus may be… Read more »

I don’t have any hobbies.
I don’t pour my money into any material hobby like collecting. It’s like, way against my principles, dudez. Seriously.

What about continuously posting negative comments on someone’s blog…? You seem to be pretty interested in that. 🙂
LOL. I knew this was coming.
I’ve scored MJK’s used tissue.
Once I’ve extracted the DNA, the cloning begins.
How’s the fourth eye BBQ aprons coming along.
Nice hit on the punchline Mattw.
I’ve gotta say that I think the Targets were intended as a joke to begin I bet. I certainly don’t place personal value to them and they don’t represent anything artistic which is kinda the point in my view.
BTW I love you Doors. And I think you just need a big hug……Ha!
These are the kind of people that buy sweaty used stage cloth; does it make you more of a fan if you fork out your hard earned pay for this stuff?
its a choice , dont judge . Some people like somethings .. and some others . In portugal we have a saying .. literally translated it is : ” dont argue with tastes ” . We are only fuc&#$g human ! you no different !! (pardon my writing mistakes)
^What a greenhorn.
I think doors was looking for exactly what you said matt… I think an ‘obviously’ would have been better…
[quote post=”529″]^What a greenhorn.[/quote]
Pano, You’re starting to sound more and more like Doors each day
whats a greenhorn ?
[quote comment=”31574″]whats a greenhorn ?[/quote]
Someone who is new basically, so he’s kinda stating the obvious. I think he meant it as some kind of insult, but personally I agree with what you’re saying.
hahaha no! greenhorn is a derogatory term for someone from portugal. it was just a joke, no insults.
thats how i meant it, anyway.
…and what do you mean MORE and MORE!?
is a greenhorn worse than a red neck with a brown
nose?
how’s my fourth eye backyard cricket set coming along?

for you doors,even though you like the old stuff
better than the new stuff.
I swear Adam looks up from his shoes at the 3.30 mark.
Dzienkuje!
i have a foam tool ball that came with some stuff i bought a while ago ! and you know what goes round!!
must be a tool foam ball 🙂 and when danny throws them drum skins on concerts i dont really move, also. I adore my foam ball
Looks like the BDO sideshow page took down the notice of more tool shows… This is it, better in a way I think. They’ll be back soon enough 🙂
Tool are fans of Radiohead…
Radiohead have played over 800 concerts. They have never ever repeated a setlist. Says Ed O’Brien, “one of the worst things in music is when bands play the same set every night.
Maynard & The Boys I do hope you read FourthEye.
I bet there’s a Radiohead page out there where Doors complains about the band “mixing it up” each night and that Radiohead should be more like Tool by playing the same songs to their fans etc.
Doors: how many Tool shows are going to this summer? Be honest…
I’m being honest. None. When they make a good album I’ll go. Not wasting fuckign over $100 to a lazy band and one that’s not up to par. I’m sorry.
^I respect your opinion but I can’t see how you wouldn’t enjoy at least one Tool show this summer. Even if you don’t enjoy the new album (which I find hard to understand) wouldn’t you at least enjoy some of the other songs being played? Or the atmosphere at the show? If you really don’t feel like going then that’s cool with me but if this is Tool’s only appearance in Australia for the 10,000 Days album then you won’t see them here for another 3 or 4 years or more… That’s a long time between shows, assuming that you… Read more »
Tool playing the sme 12 songs every night will still always be superior to Radiohead and the shit that dribbles out of Thom Yorkes Mouth.
Radiohead = Most overrated band ever IMO
Mattw you’ve made some good points. I’d see tool but $100 is too much for any abnd (besides Pink Floyd of course). Godspeed. Spontaneity is not only welcomed by the crowd, it also boosts the morale of the band and gives them the added energy to play songs on a night to night basis. If I was in a band and I was playing the same songs day in day out I’d go mental- Seriously I would (I guess MJK feeds off the groupies, that’s what keeps him goign I guess). Seriously… I don’t feel like arguing, but I’d rather… Read more »
Radiohead haven’t come up with anything decent
since CREEP.
You’d have to pay me $100 to watch em.
I’ve got my eye on you Thom.
