Re: 2022 North America & Europe Tour

^ No no, in 2020 you guys had THREE nights in a row booked at Viejas Arena but you cancelled the 3rd show! You played FRIDAY, January 10 and SUNDAY, January 12. You had MONDAY, January 13 lined up as well BUT you cancelled it & scheduled a show up at the SAP Center for TUESDAY, January 14 instea...

Re: 2022 North America & Europe Tour

Just Phoenix tomorrow night but the Suns are playing Saturday night so I'm going to that as well.

I'm kinda praying the band pull out 7empest tomorrow night! It's not everyone's favourite song but I absolutely LOVE it so I'm hoping they start playing it again! πŸ˜€

Re: 2022 North America & Europe Tour

Side question re: San Diego. Does anyone know how many times Tool have played Viejas/Cox Arena in San Diego? A couple of us who’ve been on the crew for a while reckon it might be their most played venue (not counting some of the early club days). I know for San Diego they’ve also played SD Sports A...

Re: 2022 North America & Europe Tour

We Aussies would absolutely love it if the band swung by for a full Australia & New Zealand tour sometime later this year like October or November etc. Any such tours given their popularity here these days would essentially be an 8 or 9 show tour, or at least 6 or 7 shows with Perth, Adelaide, B...

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

To be honest, Maynard also missed the lyrics at the 10:30 mark in the song so the other 3 guys were essentially playing for like 6+ minutes without him singing. It felt kinda flat that night, even though it was the live debut, to NOT have Maynard cut back in with the "Disputing intentions invit...

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

Um, I hate to maybe point out the obvious but, um, I don't really give a shit if the band makes one or two key mistakes during their 2 hour live show... Why? Because pretty much NONE of us on this forum have created (a) Aenima (b) Lateralus (c) 10,000 Days or (d) Fear Inoculum. For example, have any...

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

That was the greatest TOOL show I have ever seen and it may have been the greatest show I've ever seen!!! It was absolutely amazing; Adam Jones' birthday, live debut of Culling Voices and they played from 8:45pm to almost 11:10pm with only that 12 minute intermission. Other highlights? 1) Danny play...

Re: 2022 North America & Europe Tour

Question to those who have been to shows on this tour, or just been to a lot of shows in general... I have been to 2 Tool shows, 2014 and 2019. In '14 i was able to snag an unsigned poster but missed out in '19 (they were sold out by the time i got to the front of the line). For a "Doors at 6:...

Alcohol may have influenced how I typed up that last comment.

Then again, as an Australian, isn't it just assumed we are always on the cans? I thought that was a given... πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

It's the DEEP CUTS tour!

No Schism. No Stinkfist. No Aenema. No Jambi. No Parabola. No Vicarious.

No problem... just fill the set with awesome tracks we hardly ever hear!

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

Tell your wife the signed poster is an 'INVESTMENT' as the band's popularity will continue to grow over the next 10+ years, especially if they release just one more album (final?) in like 2027 or something. You can always sell the poster for a ridiculous amount in 2029 to some diehard new fan who ha...

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

Sometimes you just get lucky as a fan, or just lucky in life overall. For example, I've seen METALLICA many times over the years and while they've always played well or chosen a great setlist, some of the venues weren't exactly conducive towards them having a great 'mix' or I've had a seat up the ba...

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

When TOOL were over in New Zealand on February 28 and 29 in 2020, just as all the Covid stuff was getting pretty serious etc., they played both Descending AND 7empest at the Friday night show but left out both Parabola and 46 & 2. https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/tool/2020/spark-arena-auckland-new...

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

The 7:00 to 8:00 or so part of ROSETTA STONED might just be one of my favourite TOOL 'minutes' of music they've ever created. It's seriously good stuff and I always hook into it or that 'part' whenever I listen to the song. Saw it live twice too and both times were spot on! It's just a fascinating p...
