Dallas gets that 21st date, with two back to back shows- what the shit?

Da Bears suck, now this crap.

I've got a feeling there will be a summer Tool tour after the Puscifer one and with that tour, I'm thinking we'll see Tool at Lollapalooza.

I'd imagine they would finish up the album before touring again, so a tour later this year isn't out of the question.

They were at Lolla in '09. Would rather see them in a proper venue around Chicago/Milwaukee/Madison than a festival but I'd take either one at this point.

Rumor has it that a The Pot video has been made and will be shown. Along with some other tweaks to the set list.)

Wow....wait 6 years to unveil a music video. No thanks. And by tweaks to the setlist, they mean replacing Stinkfist with flood or right in two. I'm sorry but after them milking the SHIT out of that 10,000 Days tour, I'm pretty much burnt out on these guys. What broke the camels back was them performing at All Points West back in 2009. Same....fucking....setlist....over and over and over. These guys are REALLY turning into a nostalgia band.

I think you are confused. How can they be a nostalgia band when they play NOTHING from their first two releases, and only a couple songs from their next two? If they played nothing from 10,000 Days then ok, you'd have an argument. It's not their fault you don't like that record, but in actuality what you want them to be is a nostalgia band. I wouldn't mind some nice setlist suprises this time around as would anyone, but come on; how annoyingly repetitive can a setlist you see once or twice every 2 years be? They don't even play Wings for Marie and 10,000 Days anymore...

I guess nostalgia band wasn't the proper term for what I meant. I was a HUGE Tool fan up until recently. I saw them quite a few times during their 10,000 Days tour (probably 7 or 8 times) and I must say with the exception of Flood getting tossed into the mix on the later dates, these guys didn't mix ANYTHING up. And every time I saw them, it was the same 9 or 10 songs jumbled around. I understand that they have the whole laser, smoke machine, fog thing set up but goddamn...mix it up. You're right, they hardly play anything from Opiate or Undertow, thats another problem. I don't know, I never EVER got tired of seeing NIN perform or countless other bands i've seen multiple times. These guys just got redundant. I remember Adam saying that "You're in for a few surprises this next leg of the tour". And what that? One or two changes in the 11 song setlist (that still syncs with the videos they've been playing pretty much since Lateralus)? When I saw them at All Points West in 2009...three years after they released 10,000 days, and two years after their last 10,000 Days tour, I figured they'd HAVE to alter their show a little bit.......nope. Not one goddamn thing. I'm convinced these guys aren't even trying anymore. And so help me god, if they play the same shit this tour, i'm throwing in the towel and getting my jollies off with Puscifer.

Well in fairness the last tour they did bust out Third Eye, Intolerance, The Grudge, and The Patient. Granted I never got to see that tour as it was mostly West Coast and then Australia, but I am sure we'll see at least a couple of those tracks this time around plus possibly one or two others. I keep hearing Pushit will make a re-appearance? There's also a guessing game going on over at fourtheye now where apparently it's been released that one of the tracks that will be played, that hasn't been played in sometime, has the letter A in it. So feel free to narrow down the possiblities if you'd like. (Swamp Song? Crawl Away?)But who knows that could just be bullshit.

Either way the staples won't change. 46 & 2. Jambi. Aenema. Lateralus. Stinkfist. Schism. Pretty sure all of those will be there. The songs are so long they can only play 11-12 of them in a 2 hour show, so when you minus those out there's not much room left. And that's good by me because I love all of those staples. I'd rather them play the songs I know they're going to rip rather than songs that don't sound great live. For that matter, If I went to a Tool show and DIDN'T hear Lateralus, I would lose my fucking shit. I don't know, I could see the exact same setlist from 2009 and I'd be good to go because I love the songs and it's been too long since I've heard them anyway, but throw in The Grudge and Third Eye and I am over the top happy. It's weird. With NIN I could do to never hear Closer or The Hand That Feeds Again (as starved as I am for NIN live again), but the thought of never hearing Lateralus or Aenema again sends shivers down my spine, and not in a good way. To each his own.

Got meh Tix for 2/4!!

Gonna complete the Maynard trifecta within 1 year.

AAWWWWWWWYYYEEEAAAHHHH!!


I was wondering to myself .. with Maynard touring so much in all forms .. do you think his vineyard is tanking?? I guess a winery in the desert can be expensive. That's my guess ..

NIiice!!

***** .. Live .. That's gonna be bad a$$! And **** .. even better.

P-Syched!!

Edit: VVV .. Noted .. and fixed. I check out set lists before shows .. so .. woops. Kinda like DVRing a football game and someone tells you the score before you get home.

Heh, I was hell bent on making sure I wouldn't check out set lists or go to YouTube before the Toledo show. Sunday morning I already cracked and checked out the Reno show. :/

have to get tickets when I can, hopefully I can leave the state soon.

Just one semi-spoler question. Was the light show the same or different from the last tour?? Jus wonderin' ..

1 week, 2 days!!

I'm ok with the set list ..

It's slightly different from the last tour- in a good way. The back drop where it used to be all projection and lighting now has one of those stealth screens that were used similarly for the LItS tour. They don't have 3 of them like NIN did to create the 3D effect.

I LOVED Forty Six & 2 with the new set up. Let me know how you feel about it after your show.

Have fun tonight Bridge!! WOOOOHOOOOOO!!!


3 Days til meh Show .. soooo excited.

Opening band .. Is YOB worth checking out Live?? .. or should I continue drinking beer in the parking lot??

Their tunes sound alright on the NiNPod .. decent. Live could be different.

Sober (with some dude on a mixer-?? not sure) I didn't care for it. Good time for a bathrm break)

That was Maynard on what seemed to be some kind of slide guitar.

Give the show a B. Band didn't really have it together at the start of the show. All the members were playing at different tempos it seems. They got better though out the night but didn't really pull anything new. A few little jams here and there during Intension which was kind of neat.

Not sure what sucks more- being sober, or the song Sober.

2 Texas dates are up on the traders den

I would absolutely love it if they surprised us by suddenly releasing it in the Spring once MJK finishes his Puscifer tour and then gear up for a fall/winter world tour to promote the album.

If a tour happens, my guess would be very late in the year due to Maynard's wine harvest. Wouldn't surprise me if they played overseas to start the tour out since it's been a while, outside of Australia/Hawaii a year ago.

But then again they surpised the shit out of me with the current mini-tour so WTF do I know.

My thoughts are just them jamming- but they are obviously working on the next album so who knows (outside of them) at this point.

+1 on the no Chicago/Milwaukee/Madison show. Haven't been around here since '09 and that was for Lolla. I'll take what I can I guess but outdoors in front of 50,000 people or whatever it is ain't the same as an arena or theatre show.

Speaking of Schism on this tour, I was hoping it would be one of the songs replaced. I completely changed my mind after hearing it in Toledo. Maynard sounded better (not the high pitch he's been doing it in the last few years), and they way they sped it up towards the and was a great fucking surprise. Kudos to them for making the live song interesting again.
