Hmm.. I thought that some European countries were going to be getting the CD before the U.S.? At least I had seen a list that stated that..

Which leak are you guys looking at..? I know there's a leak for "Vicarious", but it ended up being the Doom3 intro written by Danny Lohner..

If there is a delay in Europe, I am so importing it from the states.

The leak on bit torrent is fake, unsuprisingly. Some guy singing poorly with an acoustic or something. I turned it off right away.

The new cd will be released on april 28th in germany.
When will it be released in the UK?

If there is no delay it should really be May 1st.

According to amazon, we (UK) get it on May 1st. Which makes senses, as monday is new release day for music.

But it'll be mayday, so will my local music shop be open? Oh the horrors :(

Thanks. Big relief. It had been on my mind all throughout school.

Now I can easily wait until May 2nd. :)

Until the next leak pops up!

We'll make that a sarcastic [i]easily[/i]

Wow the date is now only a month away...I am really looking forward to this, most of my favourite bands arent producing new music :(

(Well until Billy brings the pumpkins back from the grave)

Could someone tell me how long the undertow album is.

1.1 hours according to iTunes

really? i expected undertow to be alot shorter

Mostly 5 minute-ish songs. It's Disgustipated and Flood that bring it up to over an hour, with their sections of pretty much nothingness filler going on (Mostly Disgustipated, Flood is actually a fairly cool song).

I just bought a ticket to see Tool in Glasgow. :smoke:

It most certainly will. Shops tend to be open on bank holidays to some sort of 'popular demand.' My day will be buy CD, listen to it like a bazillion times, have a wank, listen to it another bazillion times and have no sleep.

hey, Tool n00b here! Does Maynard paint himself and stuff in concerts?

[QUOTE=Cathedral]hey, Tool n00b here! Does Maynard paint himself and stuff in concerts?[/QUOTE]
Well dunno. First Tool gig. Doesn't even say on their site they're coming here. Found out on Tickets-Scotland.co.uk.

He used to back on the Ænima tour a lot from the movies i've seen. The whole blue/white thing.

On the Lateralus tour, he wore like a black leather suit thing? Or sometimes just underwear/shorts. I'm not sure if he was really painted.

Or maybe coming on stage with a painted white face, shorts, and a DD black bra..

Gotta give it to him for picking DD's though...oh, the mammories..

But that was back in his Undertow days..

this is a piece from today's update at Toolband.com:
[QUOTE]And speaking of stiff, because it will be their last show in Hollywood for a while, I should remind you that VOLTO! will be performing on the main stage at the KNITTING FACTORY tomorrow night (Friday, March 31). According to the pride of Huston, TX (a city I’m beginning to appreciate more these days for reasons I’m still trying to put my finger on), after the Knitting Factory show, JZ and the boys will be drinking those big kamikazes one last time at the LA VE LEE in April (TBA) before Danny starts rehearsals with his other band in preparation for their much anticipated appearance at COACHELLA (APRIL 30) [I][B]and any other gigs they might decide to do prior to leaving for Europe in early May.[/B][/I] [/QUOTE]
:eek:
Small club tour perhaps? Something similar to what NIN did right before/after the release of [I]With Teeth?[/I] I recently read on toolnavy from some guy that he had been informed about a supposed May 8th show in Dallas, Tx...of course, I did read this on toolnavy which is where most rumors seem to originate from...but it'd be quite awesome if they did come down to Texas before leaving! And well, there is mention of (for some reason) appreciating Huston (houston?) in today's post...

*really hopes U.S. gets a some sort of tour*

Holy Sh*t!!

I'm in Houston! They may be in Houston! This could be the best damned May ever!!

:wets self:

That would kick arse if the band does a mini tour in the US. It's no fair Europe gets the first taste of Tool goodness..

^I'm from Houston as well! (though I go to school in Austin) I'm already starting to think of excuses to give my professors for why it is i [I]must[/I] take my final exams early! Heh, of course, assuming this does happen. I need to go home a.s.a.p. in May.

hmmm....i wonder what TBA means

and a few shows maybe around the southwest maybe.....if so yay

Maybe Cher will make another appearance, the nard hasnt brought her out since the AEnima tour :naughty:

My tickets arrived today :) Share my joy.

No mention of who's supporting on them, so still a mystery

My tickets came aswell! *High Fives*

My panic! at the disco tickets were dispatched today :-/

And the college made an error on my exam entry for the 14th june....i have to pay £10 on top of the £30 i already payed :( £40 for an exam that's stopping me from seeing tool. And it should have only cost me £15 :(

Where you seeing Panic at Rob? I've got a friend who's stalking all their UK dates.

And my condolences for all the crap preventing your seeing Tool, as for anyone else who cant go. rest assured, if we can get my friends digi camera in, ill be posting the results here

Aren't they exactly like Fallout boy? That's what I've heard anyway...

Panic sound more perverted from what I heard, although I did only listen to one song and turned it off after 20 seconds due to embarrasment...

Not that I've listened to much of either band though, just my general impression.

They are kinda like fall out boy, probably very like fall out boy if you're not into that sorta music i suppose. They are just fun to listen to, as are FOB. I'm not bothered about the whole scene thing, i was listening to them way before any of that stuff really started cropping up, i didn't know what they looked like how they were gonna present themselves etc. The concerts are cool, me and my mates get drunk, sing along to all the words and make fun of all the little girls in the crowd :cool:

People that condemn those bands without listening to much of them are gay. Panic! picked a strange song for the first single imo (i write sins) which hasn't helped their image with alot of people. And fall out boy are just loved by the masses and some people are put off by that :)

I'm seeing them at the astoria on april 24th and fall out boy at brixton on 25th may...:)

Anyone here get a radiohead ticket/try to get a radiohead ticket?

Guys, I think you need to see this...

"[03/31/06] - It's Four (4) Open & Loud Listening Parties!

Suddenly got a whole flurry of emails this morning, seems everyone got wind of this before we even woke up today; sorry we fell behind. Seems as part of Tool's global promotional tour for the upcoming record "10,000 Days", they are giving fans a one-time chance to hear the record exactly 31 days before its US release - which is tomorrow! A press release quotes the band as saying:

"With the four of us scattered across the world, this seemed a great opportunity to let our fans worldwide participate in something special. Tomorrow, in Sydney, London, New York, and Los Angeles, at 11 AM local time in each city, one of us will be on hand to play the album for the first 500 fans to arrive at the venue. No questions, no autographs, no cameras, no cellphones - just the music. We're sorry for the short notice, but we wanted to try to keep the media out and our diehard fans in."

The venues listed at the bottom of the press release are Space (Sydney), The Mean Fiddler (London), Irving Plaza (NY), The Avalon (LA). So it sounds like they're going to just show up, hit play, and sit quietly until it's over. No word yet on who will be at which session, but it seems likely that since Adam has been working on the music video, he will be running the LA session. Perhaps Justin will be in London? As more info comes in, we'll keep you posted. Meanwhile, this could be the lucky break you were waiting for - and maybe I'll see you at the LA venue! §

Anyone in these locations?

If only it was easy to get to London on short notice. Sounds like a great idea, and im sure at least 1 person will comment on the London one.

Of course, im also looking at the calendar and seeing April 1st tommorrow. :) Wonder how they'll swindle them (500 people turning up to hear Green Day or something would be great)

I could probably get to London somehow... but for 11AM? I really want to go but as you said April Fools.

From Blabbermouth:

[QUOTE]Rumored TOOL U.S. Dates Leaking Out - Mar. 31, 2006

Launch Radio Networks reports: Sources have told Launch that TOOL is booking two concert dates in New York City for late May, with the dates and exact venue yet to be announced. The group is also rumored to be hitting several other cities that same month, including Seattle and Oakland. These shows will follow TOOL's April 30 headlining performance at the Coachella festival in Indio, California, which will be the band's first live appearance in the U.S. since 2002.

The group has also mapped out a European tour that extends from the end of May until mid-July, with full North American plans yet to be unveiled.[/QUOTE]

F U C K !!

I'm nowhere around any of these places..!

Yet, tomorrow *is* April Fools, so this can mean two things: 1.) 2,000 people are going to be really pissed with a few hundred more wondering why, or 2.) this *does* go down and a few hundred are going to be pissed..

Either way, a few hundred fans are going to be pissed..

That is funny. It's most probably the April Fools joke.

But certainly not the full prank...I mean, it's not THAT good.
