I’m asked pretty frequently if I know who the opening act for the coming US tour is. The straight answer is that I don’t know, as far as I’m aware there hasn’t been official confirmation of any support act(s) as yet. However, in the last couple of days there have been a few rumours lying around. The first was that Serj Tankian from System of a Down would play a… Read More »US Open Acts?

Maynard gave us a Puscifer update on his Myspace site today: Tim Alexander and I just did an interview with Bodhi from XM. We took him bowling. The prick got 5 strikes in a row and made us all look pretty impotent. “Seriously! I’ve never bowled in my life. Honest guys!” Hopefully his battered corpse will never be found. No body, no murder. We’ve listed several of the stores across… Read More »Myspace Puscifer Update
According to Croaka, Maynard will be chatting to Jay and the Doctor on Triple J on Wednesday the 24th of October. The show starts at 6am AEST time, but no clue as to exactly what time in the 3 hour show the interview will be on. You can tune in online at triplej.net.au, or listen to it on the radio of course.
Seems like every website I got to this weekend has something new about Tool, Maynard or something else. Here’s another couple of things you may have missed. From Blabbermouth: The Pulse of Radio reports: TOOL frontman Maynard James Keenan says that he recently worked on a new song with drummer Brad Wilk and bassist Tim Commerford of AUDIOSLAVE and RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE. Although Wilk and Commerford were rumored to… Read More »And it just keeps on coming…
There’s a new Maynard interview on mp3.com where he talks about all things Puscifer. I wonder how serious he’s being: Were you tossing around album titles for a long time, or was V for Vagina the only contender? We hosted a telethon in my mind. Many came, few were chosen to participate in a fight to the death. What were the other contenders? C is for Cunnilingus, O is for… Read More »Maynard talks Puscifer
Blair tells us that Tool are in the latest issue of Relix Magazine. I’ve never heard of this publication before, nor seen it in Australia, so good luck finding it. You can order an issue online though if you like. No idea what the interview contains, but the cover of the magazine shows Tool getting in the mood for the upcoming Aussie Cricket Season.
Since the truth is now out there, I’ll reveal what I know about the Vicarious video. It’s not much really. Here’s a copy of the letter I was forwarded over a week ago now, and sworn to secrecy: Hello, It’s with great excitement that we announce Tool’s long-awaited “Vicarious” DVD, featuring the unreleased video “Vicarious” and other content, will be released December 18 2007. As always with Tool, exact packaging… Read More »Vicarious Video Details
