Ya I wish they did too. They worded it in a way that they were going to on social media. They then had tons of comments about there being a non vip presale and they decided to take everyones money and not clarify the matter. I just threw away $50 USD. 

I don't remember Tool ever selling single pre sale tickets to their shows at Tool Army. They usually sold VIP packages only. There was so much talk about single ticket pre sales for this tour. But no dice! :( 

The $50 membership is worth it. Can't remember how much I paid many, many year's back. My membership doesn't expire till 2100.

Ya that seems great but the new memberships are only 1 year long. Not a great deal.

I'm thinking that was a mistake, because I wasn't able to access the presale through Toolband without logging in and they were pretty clear in the announcement that this was for Tool Army members only.

What's done is done, and this does nothing to ease the sting for people who bought the membership expecting normal presale tickets, but I don't think the link for the public on sale of VIP packages was supposed to go live today. (in the past they've offered the VIP packages up to the general public when they weren't selling out in the fan club, so maybe they had this set up in advance & it went live by mistake?)

Or maybe they're just money grubbing whores and don't care, either scenario is possible... and both scenarios are possible too, they certainly aren't mutually exclusive.

I read around the time of the last album that Maynard's approach to vocals is to think of his voice as another instrument in the band. Not necessarily the frontman. 

He said he sometimes wants his voice placed lower in the mix so as to not detract from the other musicians, but to support them.

I still haven't listened to FI but I wonder if this is the case as well as his screaming voice not being what it once was. 

This seems very evident on FI. I am missing maynards angelic climactic melodic peaks ala the 7 minute mark of Jambi, among many older songs.

To each his own, I think Maynard's vocals are pretty great on Fear Inoculum, and I'm also glad it's not more of the same (change is good). Considering all we have to appreciate from that guy's many projects, I'm pretty ok with his role not being as prominent as others this time around.

I'm also happy that Adam's guitars are in the forefront for this album. I've always felt like Adam gets outshined by the other three guys being as dominant as they are, so I was very pleasantly surprised to hear all the guitar work on FI.

I think it's brilliant.
