PROUD NEW OWNER OF PORTLAND VIP PACKAGE!!!!!!!

[Ravenpig]

$500 is technically a better deal than the one Australians got cause this one includes a ticket.

Still, that's a lotta potatoes

[Kittaan]

THANKS!!! CAN YOU KEEP ME OFF NOW TOO?

I've taken you off several times, and it keeps putting you back. I'll ask Hellboy if he knows what's up wit dat.

Are you hitting SF too? I saw Jose on TA earlier, are you hitting any shows with him?

[Kittaan]

Looks like Eugene is the only VIP left. I guess they'll have another block for the Toolband pre-sale?

I can't believe it, but I caved and bought one for SF. Was definitely not planning on it, and I gots me some 'splaining to do now.... ridiculous to spend that much on a show, and I don't much care about the "goodies" either.

We need to get some choice questions together for Adam.

My roommate meant to buy 2 VIP and only bought 1 VIP for the Portland show.. It's my 40th bday on the 6th of March and I missed out on getting a VIP. Do you think TOOLBAND.com will have them?

[Ravenpig]

This may be dorky, but if you get a chance are you gonna tell him you're a mod here?

You know, so he can be impressed?

Yeah, 'cause it's pretty damn impressive, ain't it?

Actually the answer is: Hell no. I will keep a low profile.

It seems highly likely they will have more of all 3. But realize there will potentially be a much larger crowd, so don't sleep on it.

[Kittaan]

Heads up for anyone still looking: VIP for all 3 cities back in TA Shopping Bazaar as of right now, 1:13pm Pacific.

My issue in catching it late, was looking on the tour date page instead of the bizarre page...any idea where they might be sold on the TOOLBAND.com page?

$500, thanks for not ripping Oz off Adam.

We still got a better deal, apparently. Includes ticket price. Do I feel any less raped for that? No, no I don't.

By the way:

If Hacksaw Jim Duggan was at the Q/A I would totally get a VIP package.

[the chill]

Hey Kittaan, who did hellboy say that's opening for them? Spill the beans. I am so torn on getting a VIP package for LA or Vegas. My wife doesn't want to spend that kind of money but I kind of do. I wish I could get a VIP package and get a seat next to me for my wife. Only in a perfect world.

Man, haven't seen Jose around these parts in quite some time. Haven't seen him in real life in quite a while either.

You can catch him at your local indie wrestling league for like $10.

Back in the day me and a buddy met Sabu at one of those type of shows. It was awesome.

[not tyson]

The opening act is Puscifer

[Ravenpig]

The opening act is Puscifer

Don't think May Jay could handle that.

I think the opening act is Limp Bizkit. Keep rollin' rollin' rollin'

[BlindnCynical]

I think it's obvious... It's PRIMUS

So latest update from my source is that there's won't be a LA or other southern California date. SF is the only CA date. Not sure on if/when other dates may be announced.

As for the support acts, word is that both Yob and Failure could be doing it. Not sure if the two bands play on all shows or not, and they're certainly not confirmed as far as I can tell.

I better make sure I get to the show early enough to hear "Nookie."

[markuspoop]

No So-Cal date?

Fuck those cock burglars. Time to burn all Tool merch.

[the chill]

Quadruple damn!!!!!!!!!!! Fuck no southern Cali? Well what are the chances of Vegas? I love a good excuse to go to Vegas.

No further info regarding extra shows. I expected if there were any they'd be announced by now to be honest. There is certainly room in the itinerary for another show or two.
