'Prog-rockers Tool kicked off their long-anticipated US tour Wednesday night at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco. Tool are good friends with the guys in Rush and often hang out or jam together. Rush left Tool a letter in guitarist Adam Jones' road case a couple of years ago, and Jones rediscovered it last night and shared it with fans. The letter reads, Have a great gig! We're in the studio now. Catch you next time. Alex, Geddy, and Neil.'

... Given the current circumstances with the band, you've presumably at least thought about making another solo album?



Yeah. I think I would do another solo record. I have some ideas I've been working on. I love to play, and at this point, if there's going to be less of my time devoted to playing in Rush then I'm going to have to find a hobby.



Even if there isn't another Rush tour ever again, what are the chances of there being a new Rush album?



Never say never. We've never talked about not recording. That's something we could very well do next year. I don't know. All those things are on the table. The only thing that's been taken off the table is the idea of these big tours.



It was five years between Vapor Trails and Snakes & Arrows. It was five years between Snakes & Arrows and Clockwork Angels. By that reckoning, we're due another Rush album in 2017. How likely is that? If you had to rate that chance as a percentage, what would it be?



I'm down with that. I dunno. It's a good question. Honestly, I can't tell you. I wish I knew. I'd say there's a chance. I give it even odds.



How do you get Neil on board with a new album? How does that conversation go? Is it just a case of saying to him: "Get your arse down here!"?



It's more diplomatic than that. I'd say: "How do you feel about writing? Would you like to write something?" That simple.



So what would it take to get the three of you in the studio together?



I think it would just take a couple of phone calls, really. Forget all this nonsense about touring, I need to write some songs. [Pauses] I'm going to do it anyway. Alex and I have already talked about it. The only thing we haven't talked about is whether Neil's going to come along for that ride.



Have you had that conversation with him separately? Have you broached the subject of a new Rush album?



No.



But you're saying that you and Alex could do an album together, not as Rush?



Yeah.



Are you considering it?



It's an option.



And what would it sound like?



[Laughs] Probably like Rush without Neil. ...

I've always harped on about Soundgarden having the worst album titles in existence and don't get me wrong nobody will beat them but fuck me Rush run 'em close.
