Information about Toolarmy
I get the feeling that somethings going to happen soon, some information will be shared, hopefully worthwhile this time. Maybe a Tool Army chat will be announced, as well as some glimpses of what’s happening in the studio. In the meantime, someone on Toolnavy has made the assertion, that according to his uncles drinking buddy from Revolver Magazine, that the next issue will contain some Tool news, including the announcement… Read More »It’s quiet, too quiet…..
There’s been many posts on Toolband and Toolarmy lately, mainly involving the Vinyl release. Those Americans who’ve ordered the vinyl (non-autographed) should have recieved it by now, or will recieve it shortly. Still no firm details on the Autographed vinyl though. Word on the boards is the Toolarmy’s boards will be recieving and update sometime in the foreseeable future, and that pruning is currently underway. Seeing as there’s been many… Read More »Vinyl Arrives, Toolarmy Updates.
I stumbled upon a Bikini Bandits article, on IGN of all place which very briefly (and pointlessly) mentions A Perfect Circle. If you’re really bored, check it out! Us Toolarmy lads were welocomed by a picture of Adam holding the much requested Lateralus Vinyl. Looking good Adam now GET BACK TO WORK! 😉 Blair sars info on the Autographed copies will be coming soon. Still no idea of when and… Read More »Bikini Bandits, More Vinyl
It looks like the Lateralus Vinyl has either sold out or been removed from the Tool site. I can assure you all it did appear for a few hours last night, and was still available when I went to bed (about 10:30 Australian EST). It seems to be gone this morning, so if you didn’t get one, I’d imagine you’ve missed out. Just have to wait until it arrives in… Read More »Lateralus Vinyl Sold Out!
Well, after much hype, presumtions and server crashes, it looks as though the Lateralus Vinyl is available, both on Toolband and Toolarmy. From what I can see they’re not Autographed, holographically or otherwise, and the cost is US$44.99 + US$16 for postage to Australia. That’s about $81 Australian! I hope the autographed copy is not much more expensive than that!
The Toolarmy sites getting smashed at the moment. I sure hope the Administrators were thinking when the let Blair announce that there’s records are on sale. Would be funny if the whole site went down and nothing even goes up for sale! Anyway, surely there’s gotta be a better way, maybe they could have a lottery or some other way to help people secure the vinyl without bringing the whole… Read More »Smashed
Toolband is reporting the Lateralus Vinyl will be made available on the Tool Websites (Toolband and Toolarmy), and will go one sale Monday August 1 (PST). Presumably this means at midnight, though it doesn’t seem to clarify that at all. That’s 5pm for all us Aussies. He also indicates the Limited Holographically Autographed copies will be made available to Toolarmy members, and more details on when where and how much… Read More »Vinyl Release Notes
Ok, I’ve got a first version ready. Here’s a readme file which outlines how it works and how to install it. It’s relatively untested so consider yourselves warned, though I haven’t encountered any major problems with it at all. Feel free to contact me if you have any problems with it at all.
There’s a bit more information regarding the Lateralus Vinyl on Toolband. It looks as though it will be released in late August, and apparently autographed copies will be made available in limited numbers to Tool fans, presumably Toolarmy members. These autographs will somehow be etched into the vinyl itself rather than on the sleeve, so expect these to cost extra. You also may remember a few weeks ago I mentioned… Read More »Vinyl and Firefox Extension Update
Not much new stuff to post about at the moment, so I’ve done some digging and come up with 3 interesting things: 1. Hidden away in Blair‘s profile on Toolarmy are some posts talking about having a meeting with Tool in the next week, and working on having a new Web-Chat, as well as updating Toolarmy. As usual I’m not getting my hopes up about a Toolarmy update just yet,… Read More »Slow News Week
