I found a new Danny Carey interview today, this time on the Broward-Palm Beach New Times website. Nothing particularly exciting though. Danny bangs on about the artistic side of Tool and doesn’t really give us any new insight at all. Still worth reading if you’re a die-hard…..
According to D on Alt.Music.Tool, the recent show announced for Hamilton, Ontario on the 24th of June will actually replace the show on the 25th of June at Sioux City. No official confirmation of this yet, but considering if the Sioux City show goes ahead Tool will play 6 consecutive nights, I’d say it’s unlikely……
If found this Justin Chancellor interview today on nwlanews.com. Posted a couple of weeks ago, Justin talks about touring, life with Tool as well as the future. Definitely worth a read, and from the sounds of it it would appear the bell isn’t tolling just yet….. the future of tool: JC: We really don’t know. We’re guessing we’ll probably be done around January or February next year and at that… Read More »Justin talks about the future of Tool
Sorry about the lack of posts the last few days. As some of you know we’ve just moved and brought a house. The house we’ve brought needs a bit of work, so that last 4 days of my live have revolved around renovating it! Anyway, it’s all going well and now I’m back at work full time, I should have more time to spending posting stuff. In the last couple… Read More »Renovations! Tool Stuff! New Stereoscopic pics! Puscifer Video!
According to Toolband/Army, Trey Gunn and Pat Mastelotto from King Crimson will be joining Tool on stage at the show in San Antonio, and then again in Corpus Christi. What a cool name for a town….. Also, it’s being reported that there’s going to be a second show in Hamilton on the 25th of June. No confirmation of that date just yet. Thanks to Dreadedhead1 of Toolarmy for the tip.… Read More »Trey & Pat from KC join Tool, More Hamilton? Tool Hotline Update
The weeks poll is a reflection. Since 10,000 Days has now been out for over a year, what are your thoughts on it?   Where does it rank for you in the overall scheme of things? Feel free to discuss! Personally I love it still. It’s probably an equal favorite with Lateralus, with Aenima not really all that far behind…..
Last week I asked what Tool logo do you prefer. I gave you choices which vaguely corresponded with Tool’s full length releases, and it turns out the Lateralus one is the favorite. Would Lateralus also be the favorite album? Thats a question for another poll….. Lateralus 217 Votes 10,000 Days 83 Votes Aenima 73 Votes Wrench 60 Votes New poll being erected shortly!
There is a new Tool date for Homdel, New Jersey (the 18th of July) up on Toolband/Army, as well as some details of the pre-sale for that show and the Montreal show. This recent announcement tells me that there may be a few more shows to be announced, so those that feel hard done by shouldn’t get all worked up just yet…..
Toolband/Army today posted an official list of European tour dates. No word on if this is a complete list or if there are more dates to come: Aug 9 – Oslo, Norway @ Oya Festival Aug 11 – Germany (near Hannover) @ M’era Luna Festival Aug 12 – Katowice, Poland @ Spodek – Metal Hammer Festival Aug 13 – Budapest, Hungary @ Sziget Festival Aug 15 – Salzburg, Austria @… Read More »Official European Tool Dates

No confirmation of this that I can see, but will let you know when I get something more official. Update: Confirmed thanks to Janster!
