Sometime over the weekend (not sure when as I was away caving) Blair posted the November Tool newsletter on Toolband.  Looks like an interesting read! Haha classic: Sounds like someone cracked a fat without a franger. Nice one Blair, that New Orleans gig sounds awesome too…

A few Maynard related items this afternoon.  Firstly, as I’m sure most of you have read on Toolband a selection of his wines won 9 medals at a recent Arizona Republic Wine Competition.  Head over to the Caduceus site or Toolband for more details.

A Perfect Video

Spin has a video from the first A Perfect Circle show a few nights back in Arizona.  Doesn’t have any live audio, however the quality of the footage suggests that rumours of a live DVD of some description are very promising, and hopefully very likely! Enjoy the gigs those of you who were lucky enough to score tickets!

Tool sales wrap-up, APC do Arizona

Ticket sales for the two side shows have now pretty much wrapped up, with Melbourne sold out, and Brisbane being close to it – at time of writing there were some silver tickets only left, all single seats.  Ticketek sales for the Brisbane show went pretty smoothly, and Ticketmaster for Melbourne not so.  My experience this morning with Ticketmaster was that at about 9:00:15 there were only GA tickets left,… Read More »Tool sales wrap-up, APC do Arizona
