[QUOTE=Dr. Jake Destructo]My [url=http://www.last.fm/user/DrJakeDestructo]scrob[/url] is already extremely lopsided in Tool's favor, so it'll be scary to see what it's like when [B]Elephtheria[/B] comes out.[/QUOTE]

I haven't been here in awhile, is that name official?

No, I just didn't want to say "the new Tool album due out sometime before Summer '06."

:upset: Turns out I had to anyways.

Heh your a lightweight.

My bad, I just didn't know if that news letter from BMB came out yet confirming that or something.

As of yesterday it had been three weeks since I had last listened to Lateralus. Kept myself busy with Porcupine Tree, Opeth, Incubus, and At The Drive-In.

I've been busy with Dredg, Porcupine Tree, Symphony X and Arcturus, but like I said, I still listen to Lateralus at least once a week. :-D It's been a while since I played some Jones on guitar though. I've been engulfed in Porcupine Tree songs. Today, I finished learning the solo to Sound of Muzak. It's fun to play, but it really sounds like crap with my weak amp. :upset:

I want to listen to Lateralus so bad... :upset:

Did your friend set any guidelines on playing Tool songs on guitar? I could YSI you some Tool MIDI tabs. :lol:

I sort of finished a big PT binge. I'm really interested in getting either The Sky Moves Sideways or Voyage 34.
And yeah, The Sound of Muzak's got a fantastic solo in 7/4. Steve Wilson is such an underrated guitarist, but then again, PT is sort of a cult-type band here in America.

Don't tempt him, O Minion of Satan!!!!1!!eleven!!!111!

I find it hard to write a solo in 7, but playing it seems to come quite easy for me. It's probably because I've heard the song so many times, though.

Yeah, playing someone else's odd time solo is probably a great way of developing your own. My band is playing Halo for a gig, and the guitarist is learning that wonderfully manic Adrian Belew solo in 17/8.

That solo is a great combination of Belew's odd, discordant style, and his technical ability as well. I like it. :) Too much for me to learn, though.

Have you heard "Indiscipline" by King Crimson?
That's definitely another amazing showcase for his abilities.

I know of a good song by King Crimson called "Discipline." Is that what you meant? Or are they two seperate songs?

There's actually a song called Indiscipline from the same album.

I just had a ranom thought. When Tool tour Australia next im going to wear a shirt with 'Maynard is NOT God' written on it. Think i'll get a nice reaction from all the Maynard fan boys at the show,lol.

"MJK sucks" is on mine, on the back at least

Then my username on the front

Lol, **** i thought i was being oh so original.

I've not made it yet, but thats the idea im tinkering with.

You do know some of those tool fanboys are pretty big and mean though? Expect to be the focus of 'pit' action

Haha yeah i was thinking of that before. Maybe i could just sit in the seats,lol. Do you think i shirt like the one you or I are thinking about wearing would get any kind of reaction from Maynard if spotted by him?

sup fellas

:lol:

There should be an agreement with the crowd to all tap their watches when they come to the stage

This is quite out of the blue, but I have a video of Eulogy live and in the beginning and random other parts Maynard is singing through something that I don't know what it is. I'm also wondering how he's making the noises at the beginning. Feel free to help or ignore, it's up to you.

its a megaphone i think
