Pigmy Love Circus play a rare live show in February with bands Sextapes (featuring Chris Pitman) and Sturgeon (featuring Kent Brisley), all of who apparently played in a band in Kansas called Ibizabar. The gig will be held at the Keyclub Hollywood on February 4th. First 50 through the door get a free Sturgeon CD!
No official announcement has been made as far as I’ve seen, but ben_o from Toolarmy managed to find this photo:
Blair released the December Newsletter on Toolband today, and surprisingly it’s somewhat on topic. For those who can’t be bothered reading it: Nothing happening on the Tool front at the moment, but song writing will probably commence once the holiday season is over (with presumably Maynard joining them after the Puscifer shows). Also, no decision has been made as to whether or not they might tour in 2009. Personally, I… Read More »December Tool Newsletter
Neel emailed me today to let me know that it looks like Sonor will be releasing some kind of Danny Carey signature gear at this years NAMM Conference. Neel speculates that it may be a signature snare drum, and according to the following picture posted by Sonor on their website, the reveal date seems to be the 15th of January.
According to a post I read on Wired, Danny will be judging at a Drum-Off at Guitar Center (in LA?) on the 10th of January 2009: including Foo Fighters’ Taylor Hawkins, Tool’s Danny Carey, No Doubt’s Adrian Young, Avenged Sevenfold’s The Rev and session vet Kenny Aronoff. Those distinguished musicians will be joined by celebration host and Jane’s Addiction slammer Stephen Perkins, The Mars Volta’s Thomas Pidgeon, Shadows Fall’s Jason… Read More »Danny judges at Guitar Center Drum-off
Blair posted a one paragraph November Newsletter on Toolband/Army today, letting us know that Camella and Rynne have been on a Great White Shark Adventure and included a picture. He also mentioned to be thankful that Adam and Danny weren’t there. Perhaps they were busy doing something else…

Blair has posted the October/Halloween Tool Newsletter, which mainly outlines his and Danny‘s trip to the Guitar Hero World Tour party in LA. A somewhat interesting read, but I’m sure most Tool finds will find the following statement much more interesting: Oh, one more thing: “No”, GHWT wasn’t “the big thing” (your words) alluded to in earlier posts. I believe that’s still a go. In the meantime, keep on rocking… Read More »October Newsletter
Mad_Sweeny616 from Toolarmy posts that the mighty Pigmy Love Circus (featuring Danny on drums) will be playing with Killing Joke at the House of Blues (LA I presume) on the 9th of October. Â If you can, you should definitely go!
The Augustember edition of the Tool newsletter is now out on Toolband/Army, and as promised it largely talks about Danny & Blair’s recent trip to Maynard’s Vineyard. A somewhat interesting read but don’t expect much Tool insight. There’s also some more information regarding Maynard’s upcoming Wine Signing Sessions at Whole Foods Markets about the place: “Vineyard owners Maynard James Keenan and Eric Glomski kick off signings of 2007 Arizona Stronghold… Read More »Tool Newsletter, Wine Signings
