Tool January Newsletter released

Blair has released the January Newsletter, which you can read in the Newsletters section of Toolband right now.  A quick glance shows no real Tool news, which doesn’t come as a huge surprise to me.  Feel free to comment & discuss the email below!

Anyone stuck their tour poster under a UV lamp yet?

NOTE THE NEWSLETTER CONTAINS SETLIST SPOILERS

“Once the show was over, and the fish had been fed (with drumsticks, guitar picks, bottles of water, autographed oranges, etc.)”

So I guess we are the fish from the posters?

Yes, so now what do the posters mean? First we had a big group of fish, then a few, then in Toledo there was just one, tonight there was just one but with scissors… are they going to cut us up?

That Tool site is fucking annoying. Not for the first time I forgot my password and had to listen to that awful noise while I found it. If I never hear those greetings again that will be too soon as well.
Newsletter? Well not his best work, perhaps the quality of the emails he’s receiving is slipping. Or perhaps he just caught Mog’s cold.

Why does Blair always have to inform us of the type of food he’s been ordering from restaurants?

Does this guy do nothing other than eat burgers, ribs, steak and mexican and drink cocktails??

The only thing enjoyable about the news letter was the sopa/pipa joke, I laughed out loud in class just now on that one.
What is the signed orange thing?
And for the fish comment, fuck that Hunter S. Thompson wannabe hack. If not for us “fish”, he would be out of a job and spurting his nonsensical ramblings to passersby on the sidewalk where he would beg for money.

don’t bring my wife into this!

Or mine !!!

I’m really starting to think this tour is the end and there really is NO new album. Feed the fish some old classics we haven’t played in eons then pull the plug. Game over.
