The latest poll is up, this time about 2007’s Big Day Out. Not sure why it wasn’t working in the first place, presumably some sort of caching issue, since today I logged in and all of a sudden it was right.
Mastodon talk briefly about the tour with Tool on the AOL Music News Blog. They also talk about appearing on the Conan O’Brien show. Here’s the link. I received an email a few days ago from a TA member who is interested in obtaining a copy of the Signed Lateralus Vinyl. They are obviously a little hesitant in purchasing over-priced, and potentially illegitimate items from Ebay. Should anyone be wanting… Read More »Mastodon, Signed Lateralus Vinyl, Music
IGN has posted an interesting interview with Maynard. Maynard chats about Puscifer, Wine making and how he sucks at video games. No Tool news for you one-eyed fans out there. Check it out here. …currently I’m working on several tracks. All with different sets of musicians and engineers. Lustmord will be involved. Tim Alexander has expressed interest. Possibly Brad Wilk, Tim C., and Jonny Polonsky may want to be involved… Read More »Maynard interview with IGN
J emailed me today telling me that he saw Tool playing in Turin last night, and that he had some pictures to share. Check them out here!
Blair has posted on the TA boards a response to peoples questions regarding the Tool Set-List. As usual, it’s not a straight answer: E-MAIL ABOUT THIS “LIST†THING I must admit that I’m completely baffled by recent e-mails from some Tool enthusiasts over in Europe (and here in the U.S. as well) whining and complaining about the band having the same guest list every night. This is just plain ridiculous.… Read More »“Lists”, Hungarian Tool Fans
Aaron from Isis has posted a whole stack of photos on their website covering the recent tour with Tool. Plenty of good photos, and keep your eyes out for Tool members, “fake” tour buses and Diablo! Thanks to Tommy on Toolarmy for the tip.
This weeks poll What’s your favorite Tool ‘segue’? is over, and to my personal surprise Eon Blue Apocalypse has taken the crown. I figured it would probably the Die Eier Von Satan, but that one narrowly missed out. Being and UFO nut/Conspiracy Theorist, I really like Faaip de Oiad, and expected it to do a little better, but hey, that’s democracy! Eon Blue Apocalypse: 28% (149) Die Eier von Satan:… Read More »Tool Segues
All the time I get people asking me questions. “Hey Hellboy, when do you think Tool will be playing in country X?” “When do you think the Vicarious video will be coming out?”. I’m always happy to answer these questions, but the truth is, most of the time I don’t know the answer. Anyway, since it’s a slow news day, and in order to inform those of us who don’t… Read More »Lies, Rumours and Speculation….
