Intermission after Lateralus (I presume no?) and if so, was there a Danny electronic segue/Drum solo leading into Jambi?

<t>So, tour summary/breakdown:<br/> <br/>  <br/> <br/> Tool 2013 Asia Pacific<br/> <br/> 11 shows, 3 countries (10 headline, 1 festival)<br/> <br/>  <br/> <br/> * Set lengths: 2 x 11, 6 x 10, 1 x 8 (festival)<br/> <br/>  <br/> <br/> * Song Pool: 13 songs played.<br/> <br/>  <br/> <br/> * Song frequ...

<t>Melbourne night 1, they didn't "light the whole crowd up" but instead had an searchlight-style light rolling through the crowd. Gave a very weird, cool, surreal vibe, along with the red glitter confetti that came down from the mirrorball area. <br/> <br/> Pretty sure they did likewise both night...

Surely they could release the audio at least? I can understand being unhappy with the visuals, but surely the audio would be pro-soundboard? 

<r>tOOLNZ said <br/> Absolutely amazing show last night. on the countdown for GA tonight now <br/> <br/> Here is a great review of show and also including first VIP review from a journo: <URL url="http://www.3news.co.nz/Tool-review/tabid/418/articleID/297111/Default.aspx"><LINK_TEXT text="http://ww...

I was wondering if there was going to be any comment from May Jay about how the gig was taking place on Fibonacci day (At least, in the American format... 5/8/13...)

<t>hellboy1975 said <br/> <br/> spiral2spiral said <br/> Oh yeah, the gong was definitely as loud as I've heard it... Gloriously epic!<br/> <br/>  <br/> <br/> <br/> Gong was pretty loud in Adelaide as well.  I imagine that's planned!<br/> <br/> <br/> Absolutely, but this is the 5th tour I've heard ...

Oh yeah, the gong was definitely as loud as I've heard it... Gloriously epic!

 

<r>badkittygothgirl said <br/> <br/> joeypants said <br/> Not to rub it in, but I cannot express in words what it was like to be there opening night in New Orleans in 2010 (after the 2009 tours too), kind of expecting another retread. And then the lights go down, that heartbeat comes on followed qui...

<t><br/> MarryHanback said <br/> Opening with the 3rdeye heartbeat & transitioning into Hooker was a nice touch/surprise....<br/> <br/> ...Well, it's been a fun week. Back to reality. *sigh*<br/> <br/>  <br/> <br/>  <br/> <br/> <br/>  <br/> <br/> They did the same thing night 1 Melbourne, comple...

All for Intension - Love the fuck out of it as a song, and sets an awesome vibe in the lead-in to Lateralus.

 

 

 

<t>limeygringo said <br/> Sweat is one of my all time favs.  <br/> <br/> <br/> If I could have anything off Opiate, I'd pick Jerk Off, ala Kalamazoo. Love that version. <br/> <br/>  <br/> <br/> Just am a bit miffed that I've seen 3 of the 5 shows this tour, and the two I missed had Opiate, which I...

<t><br/> sublime5446 said <br/> Setlist anyone? Didn't this show happen last night?<br/> <br/> <br/> Hooker<br/> <br/> Sober<br/> <br/> Schism<br/> <br/> Pushit<br/> <br/> Intension<br/> <br/> Lateralus<br/> <br/> ...<br/> <br/> Jambi<br/> <br/> 46&2<br/> <br/> Aenema<br/> <br/> Stinkfist<br/> <...

Perhaps, guess it comes down to preference but fair enough point.

<t>Over an hour?<br/> < 25 minutes, more like. And would rather that than a support act on a night like that.<br/> The show's were always billed/advertised as more than just a normal "gig". And it;s not like the video came at the expensive of music - they still played a full set. nothing was stoppin...

<t>For the record, my experience at the Enmore was the polar opposite of Snaggle's.<br/> <br/> Everyone around me had an awesome time, the last way I'd describe the atmosphere would be "militant", I spent virtually the entire gig on my feet, as did everyone around me, and noe one was seen to being d...

My cup runneth over.

Logistically it makes sense, naturally, but still makes me feel for Perth...

Oh well. Buzzing. Puscifer 3 times, APC twice and Tool 3 times all in the space of a few months. Gobsmacked. My poor wallet...

Got 2nd Sydney tickets. to go with Sydney and Melbourne night 1 from the presale. Giddy up

Allphones is actually quite good for an enormo-dome.

Second shows in Melbourne and Sydney officially announced

<t>2011 tour - 9 shows, 7 of them had at least one setlist change - Only 2 shows had identical sets... Naturally, I was at both those shows (But got a very mixed up set at Sydney BDO night 1 on top of those 2 as well, so no complaints)<br/> <br/> Similar situation in 2007 - 2 identical sets in Sydne...

Ticketek dropped the ball way back in 2006 too, in the leadup to the 2007 tour - Leaked the Sydney date for a few minutes on the website well before the tour was officially announced.

(But yes, allow me to add the obligatory "Each to their own" line as well - Whatever your trip is!)

<t>Far to many people "moshing" around me at the last few GA sydney shows (01, 02, 07, 11BDO)<br/> <br/> Since then always tried to "sit" when possible (note, no one has actually "sat" in the seats, every time I've been to a Tool show to sit, everyone stands anyway - you just have your own space, no...
