    the band signed posters at the Tool show in 2013 were $100 CDN. now $350. crazy.

    Never saw tool or really listened to them. Music a bit complicated for my simple brain I guess. Then I feel like I'm getting yelled at. Feel like I'm missing out on something. I usually enjoy everything.
    Lol at getting yelled at. They're definitely an acquired taste... them, FNM & PJ would be my top 3 all time bands, but I also get why people DON'T get into Tool. 

    If you ever have a chance to see them live, I highly recommend it... despite the huge price tag, they're one of the best live acts of our day. The light / video show is as good as it gets. & they don't have many more years left in them.

    it would be mind blowing if they played the Sphere.

    I'm hoping they do some sort of short residency before all is said & done. It wouldn't go as long as U2's, but I would think they could sell out at least 6-10 shows there. 

    It's a short trip from home for them (LA / Phoenix area) so I don't think it's pie in the sky thinking that it could happen... one would think Adam Jones is salivating over the idea of bringing their live show there.

    Not sure they’d sell out ten shows. Not the best comparison, but both MSG shows still have plenty of tix available and this is their first visit there since fall 2001 :( IIRC.

    Those two shows sold out in minutes back then, so they are not the draw they once were, at least in NYC. They’ve only played one show in NYC in the last 15 years IIRC. The new shows will probably be close to a sell out by January, but it’s surprising sales have been so slow.

    I think the Sphere is a different animal though. being in the biggest (or one of) tourist destination in the US, they'd sell out a residency there easily. just walk ups alone.

    I would think a lot of people who would have been all over MSG are probably coming up to Mohegan Sun next weekend... it's a holiday weekend and just a couple hours from NYC... those sold out pretty damn quickly and that's in Palookaville, CT. 

    Double digit sell outs at the sphere might not happen, but I would be surprised if they couldn't bang out several at least.

    I got this ugliness when they were $100. I think it was the second show that they started doing the band signed posters. I had a couple of them that Adam put a big giant  “2009” under his sig which was lame. Totally ruined the posters.

    Looks like their not mixing up their set list too much. also 11-12 songs? I thought they did like about 14 songs? Tix are expensive on stubhub (like a couple hundred bucks for philly, cheaper in the smaller cities though). Will probably pass on this one.

    I wouldn't. it was incredible. 11-12 songs when they are 7-15 minutes in length is still awesome

    The setlist was enough to turn me away from seeing multiple shows, but I'm still going to catch my hometown show despite the price tag. 

    While I don't think this is their last go around, I also don't think they have many years left in them... Danny will be 63 next spring.

    This one is square, no? 24" x 24"? It's out there for sure, but not as unsightly as some of other prints they've had for shows this year. 

    Congrats on getting a signed print.

    yes, it is 24 x 24. I wasn't huge on the art, but it's not awful.

    Nice. Couldn't resist getting both nights. Not confident they'll change much if anything but it sounds intriguing enough.
