[QUOTE=Darkness Of Greed]^ what the hell...


Anyways its kinda cool how Adam and Tom got an equal number of votes in the polls.[/QUOTE]

Really? Yeah, that is pretty cool. Tom is probably better technically, but I'd be hard-pressed to make a decision between those two.

[QUOTE=Kage]Though I do owe my Tool fandom to the radio, I'm actually somewhat glad they don't play much Tool on my radio stations.[/QUOTE]

I didn't like when Schism was played to death, and I don't want them to become mainstream (I'm sure they don't either). Although, sometimes I can't help but enjoy seeing them get pub.

Tool comes on the radio a lot here. They're normally songs like Sober and Stinkfist. They still aren't very popular around here though because people then buy there albums expecting 10 or so tracks of Sober on each album and are disappointed.

[QUOTE=In Chains 36]That brings up a new question. Wtf is so great about 50 cent? He's so god**** popular and he can't rap worth his name-sake.

Anyways, yea. Unfortunately a lot of the hot gals like sh!tty hip-hop.[/QUOTE]

I'll take you to the candy shop?
I'll let you lick my lolly pop?

You can find him in the club?

Your man 50 cent. One of the biggest tragedies in music.

Rap was awesome in the early 90's. Then Eminem became famous.

Really though, I can understand Eminem's popularity, because the guy can rhyme. But 50cent is a no-talent body builder.

Eminem is definetly > 50 cent, but both are pretty bad.

[QUOTE=In Chains 36]Really though, I can understand Eminem's popularity, because the guy can rhyme. But 50cent is a no-talent body builder.[/QUOTE]

His songs are boring. He sounds the same on almost all of them, and just adds a different beat.

[QUOTE=madeyadams]Tool isn't really popular where I live. I get so excited when I see a car with a Tool bumper sticker. I always see this one blue car with 2 Tool stickers and a NIN window decal. I seriously want to know who this person is.[/QUOTE]

refl That reminds me, this year at one of our tennis matches I walked out of the bathroom and there was this guy with his back to me, and on the back of his shirt was the Ænima eye. I yelled out "Holy shi' a Tool fan!"

It was funny.

I'm just saying, the guy has talent and can actually rhyme. If 50 didn't look like he could bench press a house, then he'd still be a nobody.

Probably. NWA owns everyone else anyways.

Hmm. I have that shirt...

I finally found a song where Jones shreds!!

Check out Cold and Ugly live off of Opiate. Around 2:45 he shreds the crap out of the fretboard. Bonus.

I liked Public Enemy too. Flava Flave!

Does anyone else here like Dr. Octagon? :lol:

Yeah. I asked him why he didn't like Tool, he said 'because they are pompous self-absorbed assholes'

Yet, he listens to rappers who sing about bit[B][I][/I][/B]ches and hoes and money and dubs. :lol:

[QUOTE=madeyadams]I do too.

I have the Aenima eye shirt, 3 lateralus shirts, and the Thinkman shirt, and this cool new one I found the other day.. it has a human heart on it with all the parts labeled.

Meh.. I only have one. I'll probably get another one at the next concert, that's usually where I get my band shirts.

I don't own a single Tool shirt, which is sad. I only have 2 Pink Floyd shirts, that's all. :-/

I have one Tool shirt, it's got T00L on the front, with the colorful Lateralus eye under it, and on the back has Thinkman with a bunch of Lateralus eyes in his hand and floating around him. :cool:

I have that heart one, and the AEnima eye one.

Off topic but I'm about to get off MX for awhile so I want to ask now. What's a good Tool guitar part besides Lateralus, The Patient, and Schism.

Edit: Not all of them, just a few.

Hush is awesome. Ticks & Leeches is fun, minus the middle section, which is boring to play. :-/

I'd go for Hush if you want a quick learn, because it has some of Jones' coolest riffs, and it's only ~3:00 long. :thumb:

So, if you could have one band to tour with Tool, each with 3 hour long sets, who would it be?

Me.. Mars Volta and Tool or Pink Floyd and Tool.

The Mars Volta would be great...or NIN

Tool and Dream Theater, no question :cool:

Tool and The Mars Volta, (those being my top two favorite bands,) or maybe Tool and Opeth. Either way, it would be a good prog-fest.
