Vinyl Arrives, Toolarmy Updates.

There’s been many posts on Toolband and Toolarmy lately, mainly involving the Vinyl release. Those Americans who’ve ordered the vinyl (non-autographed) should have recieved it by now, or will recieve it shortly. Still no firm details on the Autographed vinyl though. Word on the boards is the Toolarmy’s boards will be recieving and update sometime in the foreseeable future, and that pruning is currently underway. Seeing as there’s been many… Read More »Vinyl Arrives, Toolarmy Updates.

Vinyl, Aloke and Daily Grail Updates

Anohter update on Toolband and Toolarmy indicates that: The Autographed Lateralus Vinyl is on it’s way to the printers. Now I’m not an expert on the vinyl printing industry, but I’d suggest that it’d be several weeks before this becomes available. ‘There will be plenty of advance warning’ Blair says (sort of). Aloke Dutta is playing in Norman, Oklahoma on the 19th of August and in Dallas, Texas on the… Read More »Vinyl, Aloke and Daily Grail Updates

NY Jet Players are Tool Fans?

Found this article today, which includes a comment from Jason Nerys from the New York Jets(?). Linemen Long to Know What Pigskin Feels Like in Their Hands – New York Times: Nerys, who spent last season on the Jets’ practice squad, is a fan of the heavy metal group Tool. The frontman Maynard James Keenan does not interest Nerys as much as the bassist Justin Chancellor or the drummer Danny… Read More »NY Jet Players are Tool Fans?

Bikini Bandits, More Vinyl

I stumbled upon a Bikini Bandits article, on IGN of all place which very briefly (and pointlessly) mentions A Perfect Circle. If you’re really bored, check it out! Us Toolarmy lads were welocomed by a picture of Adam holding the much requested Lateralus Vinyl. Looking good Adam now GET BACK TO WORK! 😉 Blair sars info on the Autographed copies will be coming soon. Still no idea of when and… Read More »Bikini Bandits, More Vinyl

Aloke + Vinyl Pics

Another day, another new post on Toolband about something other than Tool…… This time it’s about their Tabla playing mate Aloke Dutta, who’s got three shows on in August, the first of which will be in Santa Barbara at the Mercury Lounge. Apparently the other shows will be in Oklahoma and Texas. Yeehaw! For those Laterauls Vinyl lovers, and those that just missed out in the recent sale, heres a… Read More »Aloke + Vinyl Pics

Lateralus Vinyl Sold Out!

It looks like the Lateralus Vinyl has either sold out or been removed from the Tool site. I can assure you all it did appear for a few hours last night, and was still available when I went to bed (about 10:30 Australian EST). It seems to be gone this morning, so if you didn’t get one, I’d imagine you’ve missed out. Just have to wait until it arrives in… Read More »Lateralus Vinyl Sold Out!

Non-Autographed

Well, after much hype, presumtions and server crashes, it looks as though the Lateralus Vinyl is available, both on Toolband and Toolarmy. From what I can see they’re not Autographed, holographically or otherwise, and the cost is US$44.99 + US$16 for postage to Australia. That’s about $81 Australian! I hope the autographed copy is not much more expensive than that!

Smashed

The Toolarmy sites getting smashed at the moment. I sure hope the Administrators were thinking when the let Blair announce that there’s records are on sale. Would be funny if the whole site went down and nothing even goes up for sale! Anyway, surely there’s gotta be a better way, maybe they could have a lottery or some other way to help people secure the vinyl without bringing the whole… Read More »Smashed

Fantomas Tour!

According to the The Frontier Touring Company, Fanotmas are on their way back Down Under. Not sure if I’ll be able to catch them this time, since the finances are a little tight for a trip down to Brisbane at the moment. Maybe if everyone who uses my Toolarmy Toolbar donate’s $5 I’ll be able too! Still I’m better off than when I was in Adelaide, since they’ve decided to… Read More »Fantomas Tour!

Vinyl Release Notes

Toolband is reporting the Lateralus Vinyl will be made available on the Tool Websites (Toolband and Toolarmy), and will go one sale Monday August 1 (PST). Presumably this means at midnight, though it doesn’t seem to clarify that at all. That’s 5pm for all us Aussies. He also indicates the Limited Holographically Autographed copies will be made available to Toolarmy members, and more details on when where and how much… Read More »Vinyl Release Notes
