A friend of clg2112 says that Tool are definitely playing the Staples Center in California on the 7th, 8th and 9th of September. I’m sure confirmation of this will appear on Toolband in due course. Blksun from Toolarmy shares with us a picture of his copy of 10,000 Days signed by Alex Grey. Looks good to me.
Tour dates for the US and Canada are up. These are just the confirmed ones, and Blair mentions there should be more coming soon, as well as some other things that should make certain people happy. Vicarious DVDs? More signed Vinyl? Aussie Tour dates? Limited Edition Belt Buckles? We’ll find out soon I suppose…. Hopefully for me, Tool will announce that it will be in Florida on or about the… Read More »Tour Dates
Bob2884 (and several others) from Toolarmy have said that they overheard on the radio, that Tool will be making a huge announcement regarding the US tour later this year on Monday. There also seems to be a new concert in Fresno, California on August 6 as well.   Looks like Tool might be squeezing in a few US (California only?) dates before heading off to Japan. In other tour news, I… Read More »US Tour announcement imminent? Roskilde sells out.
A few snippets of info the last couple of days. CorpseGrindeR (who’s definitely NOT Gay) on Toolarmy posted a few links to some nice Tool photos yesterday. No idea who took them, but they appear to have been taken by someone in the crowd at the recent Tempe show. Dial-up users take not, they’re big pictures! http://img464.imageshack.us/img464/7151/adammaynardtooltempe061sk.jpg http://img464.imageshack.us/img464/8374/aenimatooltempe064ah.jpg http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/738/toolclosetempe063hp.jpg http://img50.imageshack.us/img50/4311/lipancontooltempe068nd.jpg Toolband/Army has confirmed that Tool are playing the Street Scene… Read More »Stuff
Apparently Tool are playing at the Street Scene Festival in San Diego on the 4th or 5th of August. Looks like Tool will be all over the place around then. San Diego early AUgust, Japan in the middle (plus Oz/NZ?) and then back to the US for their arena tour. Good way to build up the frequent flyer points I suppose! Other bands on the gig include Queens of the… Read More »Street Scene 06

There’s plenty of bits and pieces floating around regarding the recent Coachella show. A couple of guys at Toolnavy has posted some pictures of the show (though the one’s I’ve seen aren’t of great quality) and Distortion Online seems to have a few mp3s. Just a reminder that Tool are appearing on Rage this weekend as guest programmers. The Rage website has a little preview video of Danny and Maynard… Read More »Coachella, Rage, Sunrise
Just a couple of little bits and pieces from the web the last couple of days: Some Signed Lateralus Vinyl is up on eBay at the moment. Price is up to US$355 right at the moment…. Here’s a little interview with Maynard and Justin from the NZ Herald. Speaks of rumours of a tour in November, but apart from that isn’t much different from the last 50 or so articles. … Read More »Snippets

Chris emailed me this link this morning, which tells us about the existing 10,000 Days Midnight Sales in Australia, but also mentions a new one in Melbourne. So all you Victorians can now hear 10,000 Days at 12:01. Oh, it’s at HMV in Bourke Street by the way. SlickNickShady on Toolnavy seems to have purchased some of the new Tool T-Shirts.
