On the Big Day Out: AG: How does playing a festival… Read More »Adam in Australian Guitar
Blair on Toolband/Army tells us that there’s a Tool inspired Alex Grey painting on Ebay at the moment. According to Ebay Pentacost was painted by Alex following a Tool concert on May 19th, 2006. If you have a wallet that desparately needs a hole burnt in it (bidding is currently at US$2,125) then head over to Ebay to make your bid.
Blair posted the November Newsletter today. Seems to be the usual ramblings, this time about his trip to San Antonio. This is mainly in response to the cancelled show, and Blair mentions that the show will be rescheduled for the 2007 US tour.

XtotheY of Toolnavy posted last night that Tool are featured in the latest edition of the German magazine Visions. No transcript of the interview was made available, but it was a pretty stock standard interview except for the following points: The Vicarious video will be entirely computer generated, which is why there have been delays. Adam is yet to see the video for himself Maynard justified the current Tool ticket… Read More »Tool in Visions
Hi Everyone, the wedding went really well, and thanks to all of you for wishing us well. I’ve got a few quiet days before I head off to the US on holidays. A couple of things came across my desk while I wasn’t paying attention: Ronnie from New Zealand has emailed me a link to the second part of the NZ TV3 interview with Danny and Adam. Haven’t had a… Read More »Update!
An ad in Kerrang confirms that Mastodon will be supporting Tool in Europe. There’s only five dates on it, so they may be just doing the UK leg of the tour. We’ll have to wait and see.

Blabbermouth posted an excerpt from an interview Adam did on 99.5 KISS today, where he explains the reason for cancelling the San Antonio show. As we expected it’s due to Maynard’s illnes: “Oh, I’m really sorry,” Jones said. “It’s horrible, you know.
