Tool posts regarding touring
There’s plenty of bits and pieces floating around regarding the recent Coachella show. A couple of guys at Toolnavy has posted some pictures of the show (though the one’s I’ve seen aren’t of great quality) and Distortion Online seems to have a few mp3s. Just a reminder that Tool are appearing on Rage this weekend as guest programmers. The Rage website has a little preview video of Danny and Maynard… Read More »Coachella, Rage, Sunrise
Just a couple of little bits and pieces from the web the last couple of days: Some Signed Lateralus Vinyl is up on eBay at the moment. Price is up to US$355 right at the moment…. Here’s a little interview with Maynard and Justin from the NZ Herald. Speaks of rumours of a tour in November, but apart from that isn’t much different from the last 50 or so articles. … Read More »Snippets
Several posts from Blair on Toolband/Army this morning. Most importantly, the tour dates for the UK have been confirmed, and apparently more European dates will be confirmed soon: 6-11-06 GLASGOW, SCOTLAND/ACADEMY 6-13-06 HAMMERSMITH, UK/APOLLO 6-14-06 HAMMERSMITH, UK/APOLLO Blair also had the chance to watch Tool rehearse recently in an LA sound stage, and got to see, not only the news songs and set list, but also the visuals that will… Read More »More UK Shows, COSM, Coachella
James sent me the link to this interview with Tool today from the Australian Beat website. Quite an interesting interview. Suggests that Alex Grey is working with Adam on the new video, which was something I was unaware of, though not particularly surprising either. Also talks about an Australian tour, and while nothing has been booked, they’d like to be here this year, but if not will definitely be here… Read More »Tool Interview with Beat
Chris emailed me this link this morning, which tells us about the existing 10,000 Days Midnight Sales in Australia, but also mentions a new one in Melbourne. So all you Victorians can now hear 10,000 Days at 12:01. Oh, it’s at HMV in Bourke Street by the way. SlickNickShady on Toolnavy seems to have purchased some of the new Tool T-Shirts. Here’s a couple of links to the pictures: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v102/slicknickshady/100_0151.jpg… Read More »Melbourne at Midnight, Shirts, More Tours, TA Member Tickets…
Looks like all of the US Shows (feel free to correct me if I’m wrong) have sold out, many in a matter of seconds. This was more or less expected, which explains the general dismay with the lack of Pre-Sales. Those who missed out, I guess you’ll have to resort to scouring ebay, or as some have done, think about selling your souls…..
Danny spoke to The Rock Radio recently on preparations for the upcoming tour: “Live-wise, yeah, it always takes a week or two before you really start having that feeling in a band when you’re breathing together, you know, and the songs really start taking on a life of their own. But we rehearse enough, you know, before we head out that it reaches a bare minimum where we think it’s… Read More »Danny talks about the tour
In a move that’s sure to piss off Toolarmy members, it’s been announced that there will be no pre-sales for the upcoming North American tour dates. Personally, being and Australian member I’m used to not getting much from my TA membership apart from the site and occasional sales, but if I was an American, I’d be slightly pissed. I’m sure there’s most likely some circumstances behind the shows that precludes… Read More »No Pre-Sales

Orange.juice on Toolnavy posted this sticker today, which would appear to be a German promo for 10,000 Days, and in particular the listening parties. Some rumours seem to be coming out regarding the May US tour. Plenty of towns have been suggested, including Seattle, Toronto, Denver, LA, Detroit, Oakland and Texas. Blair mentioned that we may get an announcement on the 17th of April, and it’s probably safe to say… Read More »More Promo Material, US Tour?
