Retirement is near.

I think nah they won't retire Iron Maiden is still touring then realise Maynard is like 6 years younger than Bruce.

[Spoonman]

But making music is so exhausting. They could open a clothing store with special offers on blankets.

[hellboy]

Retirement is near.

It's nearer than when they started, but I don't think it's imminent.

45 minute interview with MJK

[hellboy]

Good to see Mexico getting a show. Will be interesting to see what (if any) other dates they do in 2025.

[earthrocker]

That interview ...the Tool stuff just sounded exactly like the vast lead up to Fear Inoculum. MJK is consistant at least

[earthrocker]

May May sounding great!

[hellboy]

He's got a lot fatter and more tattoed that I remember

[nxrm]

Somewhat Tool related.



*Worth a listen if you enjoyed reading Blair's Tool Newsletters, his novels, or any of the articles he's written for the Daily Grail.

Pack your swim trunks and your calculators, because Tool has just announced their first-ever destination festival named Tool Live In The Sand. The festival is set to take place at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino and Royalton resorts in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic between March 7 and 9, 2025.

The festival is headlined by Tool playing two sets, which should be interesting to see what rarities or lesser-played songs they bust out. The festival also features Primus, Mastodon, and a bunch more. The full lineup is:

Tool (playing two sets)
Primus
Mastodon
Coheed & Cambria
Eagles Of Death Metal
King's X
Fishbone
Wheel
CKY
Moonwalker
"We couldn't be more thrilled to share the news that Primus, Mastodon, and Coheed & Cambria will be joining us for our first-ever Caribbean performance at 'Tool in the Sand,'" said Tool bassist Justin Chancellor. "2025 is shaping up nicely. See you all there for what should be an unforgettable weekend of music!"

Tyler Fey, co-founder of the company Festication behind Tool's festival, added: "Feyline is thrilled to curate Tool's first-ever destination festival, delivering an unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime experience for their dedicated fans. This event will fuse world-class music with the luxury of the Dominican Republic, creating an immersive rock adventure like no other."

FUCK OFF

I need at least a years notice, ffs, I just got back from When We Were Young fest, I would have done this instead.

Oh I just saw the pricing for the hotel packages, yeah nah.

[hellboy]

Sounds cool, but not willing to blow upwards of $9000 to see Tool

[Spoonman]

This is some kind of Halloween joke, right?

[Spoonman]

Oh shit, it is not.

Sorry guys, but this is just ridiculous.

[tys0n]

Can't wait to they switch out two songs for each night

[earthrocker]

[Whowatchesthewampas]

[tys0n]

I can't stand the guy but it was a good watch.
