I remember Tool came to the U of C campus a long time when the Undertow was just released. We all piled into the little Ballroom, and they turned the lights out so you couldn't see a damn thing. Then this one lone red 100 watt bulb was turned on behind the drummer. They played their entire set this way. You couldn't see anything. At the end, the red light went out, there was some confusion, they turned the house lights on, and the band had vanished! The last show they were here, they played in our NHL arena, the Saddledome. Somehow not the same as that old show back in school...

At the last tool concert I saw, Maynard was in a box outlined in tape the whole concert. He never left the box.

 

See My Sig!
Rumor has it a live DVD is in the works and we do know that the last 6 shows were taped live!
one can only hope so!

This is actually my favorite site for Tool

I have jammed to Tool too many nights, and in my car and on my MP3 Player. And here I admit, at all the concerts I have been to I get carried away jamming.

 

This is a damn good thread!! Seen 'em live 3 times, and don't think I was in a normal state of consciousness any of them. Metal rules! Don't ever let anyone tell you otherwise. APC is on my platter for their next US tour. Just try and stop me! The live shows are unlike any other experience on this planet!

 

TOOL UPDATE

Work is underway on Tool's next album, despite the fact that A Perfect Circle will be touring for the next little while. The writing process for this album will be similar to the process for "Lateralus": the band works on music, sends demos to Maynard, he works on vocals, and so on. The singer discusses this in the newest issue of Kerrang magazine, saying "we're working on a new Tool record now. I'm multi-tasking. I can't walk and chew gum but I can change hats." It was four and a half years between "

 

Thank you, God.
