Found an interesting interview with Danny today, seems to have been done recently in the lead up to the forth coming shows in the UK: Soundtrack-like indeed, and with a flair for creating the visuals to accompany the music in house, has movie making ever surfaced on the agenda? “We’ve had pretty intense discussions about it. I think if any band would be capable of doing a full length feature… Read More »DC Interview

The latest poll is up, this time about 2007’s Big Day Out. Not sure why it wasn’t working in the first place, presumably some sort of caching issue, since today I logged in and all of a sudden it was right.
Mastodon talk briefly about the tour with Tool on the AOL Music News Blog. They also talk about appearing on the Conan O’Brien show. Here’s the link. I received an email a few days ago from a TA member who is interested in obtaining a copy of the Signed Lateralus Vinyl. They are obviously a little hesitant in purchasing over-priced, and potentially illegitimate items from Ebay. Should anyone be wanting… Read More »Mastodon, Signed Lateralus Vinyl, Music

This is just plain ridiculous.… Read More »“Lists”, Hungarian Tool Fans
