Here’s an article I read this morning from SignOnSanDiego talking about the events of the recent San Diego concert, during which 15 people were injured. If found the article to be quite interesting, and talks in depth about the responses by the local authorities, and praise for Maynard and the band in how they dealt with the situation. Sadly it seems that some of these injuries are life threatening, so… Read More »Followup to San Diego
Yaz on Toolarmy posts that Japanese retail is showing that a Vicarious DVD will be release on the 6th of September. No images or further information was made available, so your guess is as good as mine as to what actually appears. For those with short memories it was rumoured a while ago that the DVD may contain a Wings For Marie/10,000 Days video and/or some live footage.
Blair made a couple of posts today, one a Toolarmy exclusive which talk about the upcoming arena tour. Firstly he suggests that Tool will be visiting the southern parts of the US not already mentioned, though this may not be until they get back from Europe/Australia. I guess this means Tool down under immediately afther the Euro tour winds up in December? Not too surprising i suppose, and a source… Read More »Tour Rumours
Blair posts on Toolband/Army today that there’s an interview with Joe Barresi and Bob Ludwig about the recording of 10,000 Days. Certainly one that I missed, and a very interesting read as well. Check it out here. Tool is a dynamic band: intricate and intense, brutal and subtle. Each album is an aural adventure full of high-caliber musicianship, sick humor and sonic surprises. They create hard-edged, surreal portraits with driving… Read More »Joe Barresi and Bob Ludwig on 10,000 Days
toolapc46269 from Toolarmy posted this link today to Joshua Davis’ diary. It looks like the new website will not be going ahead despite a massive amount of artwork having been done. Plenty of good examples on this page. What did you guys think of it? Toolish or not? Does it even matter?
According to SignOnSanDiego there was a crush at the Street Scene concert in San Diego last night during the Tool set. Around 15 people were injured and sent to hospital despite pleas from Maynard for the crowd to take it easy. I don’t think I really have to say this to Fourtheye readers, but if you’re at a Tool gig, show a little decorum and don’t just mindlessly rush the… Read More »Crush in San Diego
A couple of Signed Lateralus Vinyls appeared on Ebay over the weekend. One looks like I sold for a whopping US$850, the other is still on auction, currently 226 pounds. What that equates to in real money who knows! Anyway, if you’re in the market for a copy, and have the bank balance to cope with it, here’s the link. Sorry if posts are a little slow the next few… Read More »More Signed Vinyls on Ebay
