One last post before I hit the road – Blair has posted the January Newsletter on Toolband, which contains plenty of references to the current tour. It’s full of spoilers for those who are yet to see them live so consider yourself warned!

hmmm don’t seem to know much about NZ…
Nice to see Dan rocking a Big Lebowski shirt.
Once again, absolutely nothing of any relevance or interesting in this “cryptic”, not so cleverly written news letter. Why do I even bother reading these?
yep… pointless
not pointless for me, found out final rehearsal done on a sound stage in burbank.
my question is Warner Bros or NBC!? Gotta stake this out!
^ Stalker Alert!!
:shiftyeyes:
They’d have a better chance of getting a bomb on an airplane then sneaking on to a studio lot.
not so hard when you’re already on a studio lot
😀
I’m local 728, you?
non-union, I do finance/accounting for one of those 2 studios.
IATSE eh? Do you work for a studio or production company or…?

What was the whole message with the sound stage? Missed that.

Thanks. It sucked. A lot.
Couldn’t see a damn thing.
damn, foiled my stalking plans.
one day this move to SFV will pay off…one day….
Well at least you didn’t get blown away from yesterdays Santa Ana’s.

So, was it just a tour rehearsal at the sound stage or something better?
that’s it.
i see bands roll up to these sound stages all the time, bringing out all their gear and shit. it’s fun when I can ID which band (easy when the tour bus is logo’d out). not so fun when they’re in a generic rental.

Dude, thats pretty sweet!

Are you able to actually chill out and watch/listen? Or is the area off limits to people outside of the bands crew?

Just as long as it’s not like Staind, Creed, Kings of Leon, Nickelback, etc. than yeah it would be kinda sweet.

Yea, good point. I guess it would be rather hit and miss.  With a rather large chance of miss rather than hit.

New Wine Week interview with MJK from backstage in Melbourne, for the interested:Â http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WtVw2EllEY
Spotted Dog Sundae. lol. DalMaTion.
I dont know why Blair cant just come out with it sometimes. Hell, give some straight information too. Something tangible about the new album progress would be nice.
Would you rather the newsletter be just one line:
“Over Xmas Tool decided to spend time with family and prepare for the Big Day Out tour instead of working on the next album.
Happy trails
BMB”

It doesn’t seem like there is anything tangible with the new album. In fact, every new tidbit of info that comes out about the next album makes it seem like they somehow have less done as time goes on.

Yeah, I think the time to actually stop fretting over the new album ended, oh I’d say 4.5 years ago or so.
It will be worth the wait. But it could have been yesterday.
I’m thinking the ideal gift. A Christmas album.
*shudders*
OK, who’s going to make an attempt at the album and song titles for a TººL Christmas album?
I’ll start the ball rolling….
It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like The Apocalypse
All I Want For Christmas Is For L.A. To Be Washed Into The Sea
I Saw Mommy Fucking Satan Claws Last Night
Last Christmas (Ever)
This Crowleymas
Damn, those are weak…
I wasnt talking about them not doing anything, this tour probably helped their creativity if anything. I think its cool as hell they go to Australia and Europe to play shows. I just get aggravated at the newsletters sometimes because of the constant rambling, but it is cool in its own special way I guess. I will wait it out, be patient.

Sounds like a wholesome Christmas soundtrack to me.
i mean face it toolbnd.com is more or less just some guys blog that knows tool nothing else on the site works works or change at all ever. i dont think 10,000 days is even on the album list from what i can remember lol. the few pictures in the in the photo section are 10+ years old, has a chatroom that looks like something i havent seen since i was 12….the only thing that is oddly perfectly up to date with the times is the store lol. i mean you can get some useful information out of the newsletters… Read more »
