Adam Jones

Mike tells me that there will be an interview with Adam and Danny on New Zealand’s TV3.  The interview on Nightline, which starts at 10:30 on Wednesday night, allegedlly confirms Tool‘s position on the Big Day Out lineup.

Followup to San Diego

Here’s an article I read this morning from SignOnSanDiego talking about the events of the recent San Diego concert, during which 15 people were injured. If found the article to be quite interesting, and talks in depth about the responses by the local authorities, and praise for Maynard and the band in how they dealt with the situation. Sadly it seems that some of these injuries are life threatening, so… Read More »Followup to San Diego

Alex Grey Video?

Just got an announcement from the COSM webmaster saying that there’s a couple of previews of a video that Adam and Alex Grey have been working on in an undisclosed location in LA.  Check out these videos here: http://www.alexgrey.com/tool.html Vicarious perhaps?

“The best album art since the 70’s”

I found this article on Yahoo Music today, which talks about 10,000 Days, with a few quotes from Adam, and also from their record company Zomba: Fans love it, says Bryan Everitt, director of music operations for the 153-store Hastings Entertainment chain. “It’s great to see music lovers reading the liner notes and really enjoying holding the product in their hands again.” (Adam) Jones, who came up with the concept,… Read More »“The best album art since the 70’s”

Alex Grey & Adam Jones interview

Jonathon submitted this link to me this morning, which contains a very interesting interview with both Alex Grey and Adam Jones in relation to the Tool’s 10,000 Days artwork. The article also contains a few audio and visual samples for you all to enjoy. One important thing mentioned is that the Vicarious video, which features Grey’s artwork should be out early July.

Kabir Posts a Review of 10,000 Days

Owner of the semi-official Tool website TDN (tool.down.net) Kabir last night posted a vague thread at Tool Navy simply saying: “so … i’ll have some more info about the album tonight.” I’m sure most of you reading this were amongst the 500+ fans that were refreshing the site every few seconds desperate for some new information. The site went down after a few hours leaving us all in the lurch… Read More »Kabir Posts a Review of 10,000 Days

Adam in Guitar world

Just read the interview with Adam from the Guitar World magazine.  Thanks to dvn and boatloadoffunk on Toolnavy for the scans.  Here’s some of the highlights I picked up: Adam uses a Talk Box during one track.  Not sure if I misread it, but I got the impression it was on the track 10,000 Days. There’s more guitar solos on this recording. Justin uses a Fretless Bass. Maynards vocals are… Read More »Adam in Guitar world

Tool in Japan

According to Yaz on Toolarmy, Tool are confirmed at the Summer Sonic Festival in Japan on the 12th and 13th of August.  This certainly clashes with the previously rumoured Australian tour dates. Still is great news, since I very much doubt Tool would go to Japan and then not to Australia and New Zealand. In other news, Adam is said to be featured in the next issue of Guitar World,… Read More »Tool in Japan
