In other news Maynard appears to have convinced… Read More »Brisbane Tool Review, Tool Twats, Sydney Posters

Gold Coast Poster/Shirt

Jujano kindly shared with me a pic of the Gold Coast Big Day Out shirt he purchased.  Poster is the same:   Update 2: Just as I post this, the Big Day Out site has published this on and the Brisbane one, which I must say looks fucking awesome: Update 2: And so Toolband doesn’t miss out on the action they just posted the Auckland poster:

Note regarding setlists

Big Day Out timetables released

The timetables for the 2011 Big Day Out has been released, and it looks like Tool are only getting 75 minutes this year, unlike 90 minutes that headliners get in previous years.  Not sure what’s up with that, but I imagine there’s plenty of disappointed Tool fans out there. Hopefully the sideshows many of us are going to have no such restriction…
