Maynard tweeted this afternoon an interview that he recorded with the 1 Wine Dude. It’s reasonable long (over 40 minutes) but I’ve just listened to the whole thing, and it’s well worth checking out, as Maynard touches on a range of subjects, including how wine making works in with his various band commitments.
A few Maynard related items this afternoon. Firstly, as I’m sure most of you have read on Toolband a selection of his wines won 9 medals at a recent Arizona Republic Wine Competition. Head over to the Caduceus site or Toolband for more details. Congratulations to Maynard on his endeavours and I hope to one day sample his fermented grapes. I read somewhere (I can’t for the life of me… Read More »Maynard Stuff
Maynard has a quick chat with Spin magazine, in which he talks about the latest happenings at his vineyard.

I heard on the grapevine that they may have… Read More »Maynard Talks, Danny Drums
In a new interview with Artist Direct, Maynard discusses the Blood Into Wine movie, which is now available on DVD. He talks about wine making, the movie, and a little about Puscifer. No Tool news for those who are only interested in one thing (apart from sex): It’s an inspiring film because audiences very rarely have the opportunity to see how intense the winemaking process is. It’s been removed from… Read More »Maynard on Blood Into Wine

This is a compilation of the tracks heard throughout the "Blood Into Wine" documentary, but also includes a few UNRELEASED MIXES. The DVD will be released on SEPTEMBER 14.… Read More »Slight Blood Into Wine delay
With the Blood Into Wine DVD release imminent, it makes sense that they might want to release a new trailer. This one seems to focus on Maynard and Tool fans. Well here it is: Man I wish I was in the third row of the New Orleans show…

While not yet confirmed on Toolband, the 93.3 Website and AEG Live are showing that Tool are playing at Red Rocks, CO on to consecutive nights on the 28th and 29th of June (not that’s June not July). I’m not 100% convinced by those dates yet, so wait for confirmation on Toolband, but seems extremely likely that this will go ahead at this awesome venue. Two nights in a row… Read More »Red Rocks Confirmed! Puscifer DVD!
