  • First it was: Tool & PJ avoid the northeast. 
    Then it was: they only play venues or shows in Boston that you don’t want to go to.
    Now you want to leave PJ out of it because that’s “too easy to prove” & you want to talk about population densities.

    Move the goalposts much? 


    Believe what you want to believe.

    Tool has played as many shows in Australia/NZ as in the NEast in the last 10 years. With the upcoming tour, Australia will blow away the NEast # of shows over last ten years with roughly half the population. It’s not an attack on any other region/country,  just noting how a big band doesnt take advantage of the revenue opportunity in NYC. (similar to PJ with 4 full nyc shows in 7 years, WOW).

     since its only about 15 shows in the last decade,  Tool has made it easy for you. And the link is below.

    you can decide whether to believe facts, since were just teeing off on fellow fans here. move the goalposts and believe what you want.

    better to just cut a man down than to attempt to understand. I lived their tour history, dude.

    We can do the south next if you want.

    Don’t forget to leave out the non MJK shows in 18.

    Yep! I didn't like it at first but now it's my favourite along with Pneuma.
    I have not listed to the album in well over a month.

    Agreed.. I liked the song on the album.  But live, they pretty much pulled my pants down and spanked me!!!

    Saw them in Raleigh and it was an incredible show. Way better than when I saw them in 2012. If they add 7empest to the setlist I'm willing to fly to a show just to witness it.

    Do they really need Danny solo for 11 minutes?

    +1 times infinity 

    Side note. Cut 2 songs and bring back Third Eye. 
    7empest as the opener and Third Eye as the closer. I love the long Tool songs live. Takes you on a great journey throughout the song.

    Since a long Tool song is around 3 times the length of an average pop song you can understand the inflexibility and shortness (song wise) of the sets, not to mention the video production. The only gripe I have is for multiple gigs in the same city where they could mix it up for one or two more songs. Having said that it is the Fear Inoculum tour and the 4/5 songs they're doing from it is a great representation. I'd love to see 7empest though it may be on a later run. All over Third Eye too, but my white whale for Tool is Eulogy. They play that in Auckland and I'll shit my pants.
