Concert Reviews

Plenty of you guys have asked if you can post reviews of the recent Australian Tool shows. To cater for this I’ve been looking for a suitable WordPress plugin to cope with this kind of stuff. Unfortunately the search has come up empty at the moment. I am happy to publish them, so I propose the following: Email me your review at hellboy1975@gmail.com If your review is any good, I’ll… Read More »Concert Reviews

2 Pictures

I have two pictures for you mob to enjoy today. This first is a picture of Ryan‘s framed Signed Lateralus Vinyl. Ryan has devised some kind of clear frame so that it can be turned over when the mood suits. Nice one! The other picture is from my Big Day Out collection. Knock yourselves out!

Shitty Pictures Alert

Ok, so I’ve got many crap photos (and some that are ok) taken with my Nokia N70 at the Sydney Big Day Out.  I’m going to post one a day, starting from the good, and working down to the bad, or until I reach a point where enough people post “enough already”. Deal?

Pre-sales Spoiled? Wings For Marie Lyrics

According to Blair, it seems that there were pre-sales for the recently announced US Dates, and that some members of Toolarmy decided it would be a good idea to release this password.  Rather than sharing the love, it seems that this has resulted in scalpers purchasing these pre-sale tickets instead.  I’m sure these members were trying to do the right thing, but it looks like it’s backfired on them.  Allegedly… Read More »Pre-sales Spoiled?

It’s been a few days now since I saw Tool twice in Sydney, and this article is a review of not only the Tool shows, but of my whole trip in general. Of course I’m not going to bore you with too many trivial details, this will mainly be about Tool, but I’ll also be talking about the Big Day Out in general, and also my brief trip to the… Read More »Sydney 2007

Back from the Dead!

Well, I’m finally back home after the big Sydney Trip. I had planned on posting updates while I was down there, but a lack of time and a decent internet connection prevented me from doing so. Looks like several interesting things happened in the last few days: Blair posted some US Tour dates on Toolband/Army Danny confirmed that some of their shows are being recorded and that they plan to… Read More »Back from the Dead!

The time has come

The wait is almost over.  Tomorrow morning I catch a plane to Sydney to catch Tool live in action at the Entertainment Centre, and then the next day at the Big Day Out.  I doubt I’ll be posting again until after the show, and possible not at all for a few days if I can’t get and internet connection.  Rest assured though that when I do get back I will… Read More »The time has come

Snippets

Here are a few Tool and Non-Tool related news items I’ve noticed in the last few days: Apparently Tool are playing on Wednesday, March 21st at the Tucson Convention Center in Tucson.  Thanks to Toolshed. Tool changed their set for the Gold Coast BDO last night, dropping a newer song for an older one.  Thanks Matt! Rage Against The Machine are apparently reforming and playing on the Coachella Music Festival. … Read More »Snippets
