yeah, someone should remind them that bills can be paid with indy cred.

fuck money.

Tool shows are awesome even if they have similar set lists.

If it's not your cup of tea don't go but once.


IMO I could watch the same performance numerous times and not be unsatisfied because there is so much going on.

danny carrey is a kansas jayhawk fan......................he is ok in my book.

well, it looks like they got the name of the band right.

Nevermind

If Tool sucks Pearl Jam is horrible.

how can you sell out when youve always done what youve wanted? what is it you sell out from?

You're an idiot. I saw tool last December it was one of the best concerts I've seen. Wings 1 &2 might be the best live performance I've ever seen. The whole show was mindblowing. Stay away from Tool and go listen to your Chris Cornell albums!

Hey I like Tool and Chris Cornell!

I respect them fpr doing something different. Don't dig every tune, but they challenge, and that's cool in my book.

and last but not least.. Pearl Jam should take a lesson from Tool.

Umm......no. Pearl Jam concerts are about diversity, a connection with the fans, and just hearing a flat out real american rock band give it their all every night. hmm lets see what PJ would be like live if they listened to tool...

tonights setlist:

Alive
Evenflow
Daughter
Betterman
Corduroy
(skips no code)
DTE
(skips riot act and binaural but plays a shitload off their new album)
Life wasted
WWS
Severed Hand
Comatose
Gone

Encore
LAST KISS!!!!!!!!!!

BRAVO! great show folks!

let me tell u a little story about tool.

they booked a show at an arena in a city in the upper midwest. the venue only held about 8000. it sold out in about 4 hours. every single music fan in the area was excited and anticipated an awesome show. Well, about a month before the show, tool cancelled. Not because of illness or anything like that, they got offered more MONEY to play a festival in toronto on the same day.

Whether tool was in good taste or not (and they werent) by doing, i just thought id let you in on this story about how they really appreciate their fans.

Fuck, the show was in IA, where maynards from

Ouch....when was this?
I may have been at that show?...lol...if it was the same one we are both talking about...great show !...lol
sucks for the people there in IA though...

I actually love it when a band is capable of performing their music live like they recorded it. Don't really care if they jump around the stage like crazy f++kers or hide in the dark! Some people need to stand still to be able to master their instrument and don't feel the need to point out people in the audience or make jokes between songs to feel better.

Anyway if you want to see a good rock concert go to see a band like Tool or another band that matches your musical taste. If you want to be entertained go to a Comedy Club or go see a Blockbuster Movie.

come on you hate tool thats fine, but sit here and dismantle what makes them, than they would need a new name.

yeah but some have it mastered while flying around like a harmless little fuck. who should we respect more? someone who stands in the dark and sings songs he rehearsed for 3 months before a tour, or the guy who stands proud with his band willing to play/sing anything in the catalogue. Not to mention, Maynard cant even play the guitar. What a rock star.. Maynards my hero. i wish i could be just like him. ......................................im gonna puke

here is proof that tool treats their fans like shit.

yeah i read it and i dont care. listen to the song. listen to the words.

ive been listening to TOOL for so many years and i never attribute high ideals to them, not when to comes to commercialism and selling out. that way im never disappointed. i mean jesus can you imagine having to try and second guess the thoughts and logic behind a band's decisions? that shit could drive you nuts. you can sit there ansd say they based a decision based on economics but you dont know cause you weren't there. you werent the decision. to me TOOL can never sell out.

we respect what means the most to us. be that a guy who stands in the shadows and lets the music speak for itself or the guy who gets the crowd off with ripping solos in the spotlight. who gives a shit, so long as the music is top notch?
