It’s been a few days now since I saw Tool twice in Sydney, and this article is a review of not only the Tool shows, but of my whole trip in general. Of course I’m not going to bore you with too many trivial details, this will mainly be about Tool, but I’ll also be talking about the Big Day Out in general, and also my brief trip to the… Read More »Sydney 2007

The wait is almost over. Tomorrow morning I catch a plane to Sydney to catch Tool live in action at the Entertainment Centre, and then the next day at the Big Day Out. I doubt I’ll be posting again until after the show, and possible not at all for a few days if I can’t get and internet connection. Rest assured though that when I do get back I will… Read More »The time has come
A mini-review of the Tool show in http://www.stuff.co.nz/3929432a10.html today revealed a couple of things: Serj from System of a Down joined the guys on stage for Stinkfist Sober Tool will be back in New Zealand (and presumably Australia) in September (or November or December – I’ve heard several different versions….)

A couple of things have happened over the last month, and as a result I’ve decided that it might be a good idea to change things for the Fourtheye Meetup in Sydney on the 24th of January: Mattw looked over the venue (the Covent Gardens Hotel), and suggested it wasn’t such a great spot after all. There is no support act for the show, so Tool may be starting earlier… Read More »Fourtheye Meetup
Bit of a late one this week, since I’ve been pretty busy over the last few days due to our house being on the market and open for inspection! Last week I asked how many Tool shows were you planning on catching during the upcoming tour? Disregarding the many Fourtheye readers who either live overseas, or think that Tool suck (yet still feel the need to be here….), it seems… Read More »Poll Results: How many Tool shows will you attend on the January Australasian tour?
Replayee informed me that the Big Day Out site has confirmed that the Adelaide Big Day Out is now also sold out. As seems to be the trend though, there will be more tickets made available on Monday the 29th of January at 11:00am. Apparently you need to tune in to Triple J that morning to found out where the tickets are being sold, but I’d say it’s a reasonably… Read More »Adelaide Big Day Out Sold Out!
