According to a recent blog post from progressive metal band Intronaut, apparently Dave contributed drums two two tracks on a musical project with Justin: Dave contributed drums to a song or two in a project with Justin Chancellor from Tool and a Polish guy named Peter. I’m a little afraid to try and describe the music, but it rules and kind of sounds like African techno with Polish lyrics. That’s… Read More »Justin working on musical project
Happy birthday from everyone where at Fourtheye. Hopefully the next 12 months are more fruitful than the last!
A few things came across my desk today, none of which are particularly exciting and warrant their own post. Firstly, there’s a set of gig posters from the last Tool tour up on Ebay. Located in the UK, the complete set starts at £100, or you can buy it now for £200. Next up Blair‘s Myspace page has a few interesting photo’s added recently, the most interesting of which is… Read More »Stuff that you might be interested in
According to ditchrider1 on Toolarmy, the following snippet appeared in the latest Rolling Stone: Tool July 18th-August 8th “The Prog metal crew will take a break from working on a new album for a three-week tour built around slots at Lollapalooza, All Points West and the Mile High Festival. Even though Tool won’t be debuting new music, bassist Justin Chancellor says the group will “rework some old stuff and maybe… Read More »Justin comments on Tool Tour via Rolling Stone
Blair has released the March Tool Newsletter on Toolband/Army this morning, which may or may not contain April Fools Jokes within. Â It mainly talks about Justin and a TeePee that he erected at his house, will allusions to him writing songs for the next album. For those who only care about specific news though, the last paragraph delivers: Anyway, that’s what Justin may or may not be up to these… Read More »Tool March Newsletter
Blair has released the February 2009 Newsletter somewhat secretly this time, as there wasn’t a post in the new about it. It gives us an update of all the members, which I shall summarise below: Adam is working on several big undisclosed projects (the video presumably) Maynard is Puscifering, as we already know Danny & Justin have had a very productive jam session a couple of weeks ago Thanks to… Read More »Tool February Newsletter 2009
According to my calendar it’s Justin‘s Birthday today (the 19th of November), so if you’re reading – have a good one! Also, Blabbermouth (and a couple of other sources) are still reporting that Maynard is planning a series of Puscifer gigs at the Palms in Las Vegas in February next year.
A new Ebay sale featuring a guitar signed by Maynard is up and running with a Buy Now price of US$549. The guitar was signed by Maynard after the Grammy’s last year, and features a certificate of authenticity, so there’s a good chance it’s legit. Not sure what type of guitar it is, but based on the price I’d suggest it’s probably a Epiphone LP Copy, rather than a real… Read More »Guitar Autographed by MJK on Ebay
As promised, Blair released the June 2008 newsletter, and this time it contains some “details” of what’s up in the Tool world. Head over to Toolband/Army to read it, but here’s my summary. Adam is: working on some undisclosed entertainment industry related project? Guitar Hero perhaps? also involved in the construction of some future band-related endeavor. Building a recording studio perhaps? Spending time playing Halo 3 and watching Baseball games… Read More »June 2008 Newsletter
A new post on Toolband/Army shows off Justin‘s nephew Charlie, who has just entered the world. The accompanying picture which I’ve included below shows Charlie, and possibly Justin, though without the beard I can’t tell!Also noted in the post is that Justin’s store Lobal Orning has shut down, though the do plan on revamping the website with lots of “cool stuff” in August.
