This morning I logged into Toolband to discover that the July 2012 Tool newsletter has been released. I haven’t had a chance to read it right through, but it’s the fourth and final part of the Tales From The Loft series, presumably covering the time when 10,000 Days was recorded. Check it out!
The much antcipated Joe Rogan show with Maynard is now online, and as expected is quite good! It’s a long and interesting conversation where Maynard touches on a range of subjects including Tool, A Perfect Circle, Puscifer, Wine making, Martial Arts, Drug experiences, Lateralus, wrestling Tool fans and much more. Well worth the listen. For those taking notes nothing specific was really mentioned in regards to progress on the new… Read More »Maynard chat with Joe Rogan now available
Adam has recently made a couple of comments (allegedly on Facebook but I couldn’t see them) in regards to fans having to wait for the new Tool album. He comments: “To those of you who demand a new album from Tool: would you rather get something mediocre now, or something impressive later?†“Truth is, we don’t write for you, we write for us — but we don’t share for us,… Read More »Adam comments on new album progress
There’s another Mandala feature video with Danny going about at the moment, which features Danny speaking about how he works these devices into his music: Enjoy!
The Children of Saturn podcast from the other day is now online, and can be downloaded here. There’s some great music played right the way through, but for people with less time on their hands, the Volto! track is at the 60 minute mark, and Danny talks briefly about Tool right at the end.
It was at short notice, but Danny was the guest on today’s Children of Saturn radio show, which I was lucky enough to hear most of today. The show has been on a break for a couple of months, but started up again this morning and should be back to normal, hopefully with some interesting guests in the coming weeks. Danny played a range of cool tunes, and spoke about… Read More »Danny’s guest spot on Children of Saturn
There’s been a bunch of speculation lately that Maynard will be making an appearance on the Joe Rogan Podcast, and today via the magicks of Twitter it’s been confirmed: maynard james keenan @puscifer is confirmed for july 27th Should be an interesting interview. For those unfamiliar with Joe, he’s a stand up comedian who’s claim to fame (by Tool fans it seems) is that he’s a cannabis and mushrooms user.
As hinted at on a Reddit post I was reading, Pigmy Love Circus (with Danny on drums in case you’ve forgotten!) are coming out of their drug induced coma and doing a gig in Los Angeles in August, and after a bit of searching I managed to come across this post for the gig: The gig is happening at the Dragonfly in Los Angeles on Saturday the 4th of August.… Read More »Pigmy Love Circus gig August 4 @ the Dragonfly, LA
A couple of Danny related items have crossed my desk over the last couple of days. Firstly it appears Danny will be playing drums with fellow Volto! member John Ziegler in his band Bubbatron. According to the post on Toolband: On FRIDAY, JULY 6, DANNY will perform with BUBBATRON (JOHN ZIEGLER, SCOTT KINSEY & JIMMY EARL) also at the BAKED POTATO (3787 Cahuenga Blvd., West, Studio City, Ca. 91604). Here… Read More »Danny playing with Bubbatron and Crimson ProjeKct
I was reading through the comments to the recent newsletter article this morning, and came across this little Big Day Out 2013 tour rumour from PolarBear: While catting with a few members after the Puscifer show in Houston last week, I overhead Josh Eustis say there may be plans for Puscifer to play Big Day Out (There ya go, Aussies. Wait is almost over.), potentially followed by a string of… Read More »Puscifer to play Big Day Out 2013?
