Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

I've purchased posters from other shows (as in shows I did NOT attend) if I think the ARTWORK is really cool / special etc. For example, I didn't attend the PITTSBURG or NEW ORLEANS shows back in 2019 and 2020 but I was still able to purchase the posters via eBay or someone else I knew. But why? Bec...

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

^ Maybe. But won't that just delay the next TOOL album release date even more? Surely the band want to punch out one last album in like 2027 or something... So the whole 'Carey FOR '24 & more' campaign might have to come crumbling down. Let's face it; a new TOOL album is way more important than ...

Here's a conspiracy theory for everyone: What if Danny's arrest at the airport was STAGED so as to promote the band's forthcoming tour after such extensive delays etc.? "We need a boost! We need some publicity... Hey Danny, go play drums at a Kansas Uni bball game, go to a Chiefs game in a KC j...

Yes mate! Idaho, Sacramento, San Francisco and Phoenix. Added bonus: I've never been to any of these 4 venues before either. I've seen TOOL in San Fran before but always at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium (2010 & 2016). I'm excited to see this new Chase Center host the band. The same applies fo...

Any early predictions as to which 'deep cuts' / throwback songs 'the boys' will throw out there for us on this tour? We all know they've always got a few standard ones like Swamp Song, Part of Me, The Patient, Intolerance, Flood and maybe even Eulogy to call upon... but does anyone wanna go for a bi...

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

Inspired by Tyson's framing techniques here, I've got some radical ideas that might help us relieve some of this ticketing tension: 1) Only sell physical tickets on paper or cardboard. 2) Only provide customers with the opportunity to purchase AT MOST 4 tickets in a single 'purchase'. 3) Only sell t...

Re: 2022 North America & Europe Tour

Can we start up a legitimate resale thread thing for these shows like we did previously? You know, for people who miss out and/or what to exchange tickets here WITHOUT going above prices etc.?

I hope that's okay folks.

EDIT: I'll just post in that main thread from last time; too easy!

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

Yeah the Ticketmaster app works well, just not the website. The TOOLBAND/TOOLARMY thing works pretty well too. I think the Ticketmaster website glitches due to how it might be coded; I think it thinks you are hording multiple tickets when you try refreshing your page after an unsuccessful attempt at...

Yeah, about a week ago in Israel, who already have over 60% of their citizens fully vaccinated, they had about 300 new Covid cases on one day and 33 of them were people who'd received both doses. So, yes, the full vaccination won't fully protect you but it will significantly improve your chances of ...
