Trying not to read this thread to avoid setlist spoilers. Can someone do me a favour and PM me what time Tool has been coming on stage this tour? I got last minute tickets to Hamilton show tonight. In TO for work and got a good deal so why not!

PM'd

I have one Tool poster framed & hanging in my house, and it's probably the only Tool poster I would want to hang. I'm not into the bugs or fish. https://www.reddit.com/r/ToolBand/comments/455gly/my_favorite_tool_poster_the_tree_man_from/

I have a signed Tool poster from the Spokane show. It's a skull with some smokey mist coming from the eyeholes. My wife is resisting me hard, but I'm trying to get it on the walls. She pulled my U2 War litho, which is the classic bare chested boy image, citing 'naked children do not need to be up on our walls'. I complained stating, 'this is an iconic image and everybody knows what it is'. 

She is winning the battle. I have to wait for her to fall asleep to play Tool on long road trips.

Now that I think about it... it's on. No more Mr. Agreement. You want the gawddamn lawn mowed? The posters go up.

LOL I think we all have the same battle. Wife was shooting down hanging up a bunch in our new house. So in the man cave bathroom I have 4 hanging lol, I could probably fit a few more in there too, hmmm. New weekend project!

Now I'm motivated.

I'm getting my Tool poster framed with UV, non reflective glass and rocking it. I'll be prepared. SHes gonna say something's and I won't  even let her get it out: "The gawddamn poster is going up. It means a lot to me. Your gawddamn flowers piss me off but I never say anything about them."

If that doesn't work... I'll tell her I'll stop snoring if she lets me put it up.

(my iPad is pissing me off- I can type... stop autocorrecting to moronic things)

So the other day I started with:
 "So you have no say in this cuz I'm doing it."
Wife-"Oh that's a good way to start a conversation."
Me- I putting as many posters that will fit in that bathroom, so what if I get a few comments, everyone knows already I like PJ."
Wife - *eyeroll *shurgs and walks away. "whatever"
-WINNER!!! lol

Man wish I would have gone to the Hershey show, eulogy?! I think I've seen it live before though.

^^^Please, discuss. Last 10 years of Tool shows the setlist hasn't changed much due to the light show.

Festival set at the Ball?

Last night's set list:
The Grudge
Parabola
Schism
Opiate
Ænema
Jambi
Third Eye
Danny Carey drum solo
46&2
Sweat
Vicarious
Stinkfist

They played a bunch from Lateralus.  I was pretty shocked to hear Third Eye.  That was a pleasant surprise.

Maynard was in Riot gear like he was going to fight the walkers in Walking Dead.

Danny played amazing as usual.  Was really looking forward to Right in 2 or Rosetta Stoned to really here him play but I was thoroughly happy with what I got.

Adam is really a damn master with his guitar.  The sounds that he does and doing it live are just amazing.

Justin has some serious chops too.

This band is really tight.  I loved hearing them play live.

The sound started off bad.  Too much base at first.  Midway the sound was dialed in and LOUD.  We moved to the back of the non existent crowd and had a great view and perfect sound.  Wish we would have started off there.

Very little crowd interaction.  Adam and Justin moved around a little bit.  They both seemed to be having a blast.

Mind you this was my FIRST time seeing them.  I've deprived myself from them for a while so I'm not sure what a normal set list is?

I was hoping for quite a few that weren't played.  Third Eye was an absolute treat for me.  I didn't think they played that song?  

I am happy to see Tool play more songs from Lateralus, wish they could put some other songs from Aenema into the setlist (Eulogy, Pushit, Jimmy, Hooker with a Penis).

I have a spare single for the Saint Paul show, for face value.  PM if interested.

Asked my friend in Minneapolis if she knew any tool fans. She does not. Figured I'd try for ya tho.

Thanks Cory, hopefully you are doing well

I'm so damn excited for the Chicago show tomorrow, this review did not help ease the anticipation!

Sounded like a great time, Chris!

Any idea when Tool gets on stage?
