According to a recent Blabbermouth post, Dannÿ had this to saÿ about his time with Green Jellÿ: “At the time when I was playing with them, it was pretty rad, It was more of almost an X-rated vibe to it when we were just playing in clubs, you know, for older people. It was just controlled chaos in a lot of ways, and then once the record deal happened and… Read More »Green Jellÿ was “prettÿ rad”
According to a Blabbermouth article I read today, Green Jellÿ are re-releasing their Cereal Killer and 333 albums soon, and are in the process of booking a national tour. Both Danny and Maynard were members of the band at various stages, and there’s no word on whether or not either of them will be taking part.
Tigran contacted me the other day, saying he ran into Danny at a Jazz Show at the La Ve Lee club in LA. Apparently, Danny suggested the Pigmy Love Circus may be doing some stuff in the next few months (possible some shows and/or recording) before Tool start up again in April. Tigran presumed this meant more shows, but I guess in light of recent news it means they may… Read More »Danny Says….
According to a Grammy-related Rolling Stone article I read this morning: and, to our extreme pleasure, Maynard James Keenan and drummer Danny Carey from Tool. Maynard promised a new Tool album, the though of which makes our Patron hangover much more manageable. That’s all there is…
In the last few days we’ve had some news on Toolband/Army showing us what Justin and Danny have been doing on their time off. Justin and Shelee have been visiting famous gravestones in Seattle, while Danny and Rynne have been whale watching in Hawaii. More photos can be found on Toolarmy. No word on what Adam and Maynard are up to though. Presumably Maynard is busying himself at his winery,… Read More »Tool on Holidays
There’s a new (and cryptic) post on Toolband today, which talks about the speculated Missoula show, but not the San Antonio one. I’m not really able to decipher any useful information from this, except that there may be more in the January Newsletter. There were rumours that there was a brief Pre-Sale for Toolarmy members, but at this stage I can’t really see anything to confirm this actually happened, or… Read More »Tool Pre-Sales?

According to a recent post on Toolband/Army Volto! will be hosting a NAMM party at the Knitting Factory on Thursday the 17th of January. Buy you’re tickets in advance since Volto! usually sells out. For those that don’t know, NAMM is the National Association of Music Merchants conference, and usually frequented by most major musical instrument companies and their endorsees. Expect to see a whole range of new instruments displayed,… Read More »Volto!

I stumbled across this picture of Danny signed by the man himself on Ebay today. It looks legit enough, and current bidding puts it at US$20.50.
Just a couple of snippets of news from Toolband/Army. As well as wishing happy birthday to Minsun, and reminding us of a VOLTO! show on Friday the 19th of October, Blair tells us that Danny has had some followup surgery on his arm. From the tone of the post it doesn’t sound like anything too serious, but we all hope there are no further complications regardless. They also remind us… Read More »Danny’s Arm, Butcher
