I would, but mine got stolen like a year ago. They broke into my car and took that CD, a Rush CD and a bag of pennies. They left my C.D player though...

I'll be at the Phoenix show most likely.
I just hope they change the setlist. I haven't
been fortunate enough to hear anything from Undertow
or Opiate yet. I've only seen them twice and both shows
had almost identical setlists.
All I want to hear is Swamp Song and the Patient to be honest.
Also hearing Opiate and Sober would be cool, only because I haven't
heard those ones live yet. I just hope no one tries to screw with
Maynard again this time (bottle in the head at the Phoenix show screwed us 2 songs, I swear our setlist was shorter than every other show on that tour). On the bright side, we are probably the only ones in the world to get Forty Six and Two as an instrumental because of that (except for the last part).

lateralus, aenima and undertow were great but their last album SUCKED BIG TIME.

 

05/26/09 3:17 AM

I can't find it anywhere! I plan to go to the July 21st show, but what other band will be there!? toolband.com doesn't say. (or at least I can't find it.)

^^ were you expecting anything but flames by sharing your opinion? have you been running around every topic about a band you don't like just to say you don't like them? there are other ways of getting attention, you know!

 

05/26/09 10:20 AM

I'd like to see Tool this time around. I would hope they would play a different kind of set than they did when I saw them in '07. Lateralus didn't need to be over 15 minutes! I'd want to atleast hear them play "Flood".

Then why post in a thread about tool? No one gives a fuck that you don't like them.

 

05/26/09 11:10 AM

tool is actually the exact opposite of all those things :/

more dates please????????

 

05/26/09 12:02 PM

Wow! Got some Tool haters up in hurrr! I'm sorry.. I totally respect peoples' opinions, but you guys.. seriously... boring, unoriginal? LOFL They are one of VERY few bands (and I put NIN in this category) who have NOT compromised ANYTHING about their music, views, etc. for ANYONE. They do what they want, when they want. They can go years without an album and tour and sell out their shows. They have a rabid fanbase that kind of gets on my nerves haha super over-analytical about lyrics... it's all based on interpretation.. anyhow.. I just don't get the hate. If it's not your thing.. that's cool, yo! But there is no denying they are talented. I sure as hell can't do what they do.. or any other musician so they do deserve respect even if you can't stand the music.

So.. the ATL changed to June 28th? Cool. Still on a Sunday (ugh) but MUCH better than a Monday. Anyone in ATL knows what traffic is like in this hell hole. haha

Wait huh? Where is the correction? Did you call the venue or what? Tool's site is still showing the original date. I had heard the venue was already booked with another act for the July 27th show, but how come it hasn't been updated I wonder??! Fuckers need to let people know.. lots of tix going on sale this Sat.

i definitely agree with you. tool and nin are my favorite bands because of that. and like u said not many do what they want to do. wish there were more bands like them.

Some people can't handle 8+ minute songs.

Then they should listen to Opiate! lol

I actually like/and listen to tracks that are very long, much longer than 8 minutes.

it is not the length that i dont like, is the music in general..

i dont give a shit if its 8 minutes,18 minutes or 2 minutes, if the music is rubbish then there is nothing i can do..

I mean, look at their history. How many bands have stayed true to themselves and their art? I lost so much respect for a lot of my favorite bands because they just gave into what could sell best. A band can progress, open the door for new fans, create music that isn't a stagnant sound, keep a loyal fanbase and be completely successful in the process without compromising even with bullshit from a record label. Tool is a prime example of this! I think Trent has been sincere to himself and all of us as well. THANK GOD because there are few of my "old school" bands I can say this about.. you know.. Jane's is one of them too. NO ONE sounds like them... no one sounds like NIN.. no one sounds like Tool. Bottom line. Respect the art even if you can't handle the music....... there.. I'm ending my rant! We can debate forever over opinion's!

Now, back to the Tool ATL date... Verizon Wireless has NO confirmation of a new Tool date. I spoke to the venue earlier. So... wherever this info. is coming from.. send a link or something. Thank you. *smooches*

hey man, your opinion is just that, can't really argue with it smiling smiley

let us just agree to disagree and move on.

The great thing about Tool (and NIN) is that if you have the entire discography and give it a listen, you can so easily pick apart how they've evolved as a band and where they decided to take the music.

Compare say, PHM -> Fragile, and Opiate -> 10k Days, and the amount they've grown as a band is quite staggering.

They started off raw, full of energy, and then grew into this super artsy fartsy band w/o losing their identity

There's a TON of bands out there that sound exactly the same (yes weezer/green day/foo fighters, I'm lookin RIGHT AT YOU) their entire careers.

It would probably also explain why Tool is going on their 17th year, never stronger, and NIN is still selling out shows 20 years after PHM.

I concur.

I also think it's important to realize, the majority of average music listener can't see through fake bullshit artist's. That may be insulting to some, but it's true. The bands that keep me faithful are ones who show and write GENUINE material.. raw emotions are definitely apparent.. you just FEEL the TRUTH. It's quite obvious to me when a band is full of shit. LOL I enjoy many genre's of music based on the sincerity (sp?) of the finished product. I love to support local bands as much as I love to support larger bands like Tool, etc. I loathe country and r&b though.. haha... it is what it is (fucking HATE that phrase). I don't know. I guess I feel I have a keen sense to what the real deal is. It's like saying Trent is full of shit with his music and lyrics. I have been where Trent has been.. his words and emotions are beyond familiar to me in my own mind (in a darker time) and now I'm on the other side and his music is on the other side. There is NO faking that.. especially when you've been in another person's shoes. Wow... I ramble far too much.

According to insiders from the tool army. It will be JULY 28
July 27 was a mistake and
June 28 was a type-O(not on my part)
The Show will be July 28
The Tool site has yet to correct this.

Thanks! I can't get into the Tool Army b.s. so I didn't even think of that. I'm aggravated it's on a Tuesday (long drive to Alpharetta in rush hour - UGH lol) but you do what you gotta do for good shit, right?! I appreciate your help!
