I recall the awesome song titles of White Pony being one of the reasons I bought it in the first place. One of the best impulse purchases I've ever made.

[QUOTE=Dr. Jake Destructo]Anonymity - I actually am not sure if that either. Adam Jones makes it sounds like it seriously sucks to make music with Tool, but that in the end, the reward is greater than the blood/sweat/tears lost. :-/[/QUOTE]

What do you mean Adam Jones doesnt like working with Tool? is this from an interview? :confused:

I really love how Tool can have a phycological work on a persons mind. For instance the song "Die Eier Von Satan" the first 3 words are not within the english language so its unknown what those 3 words denote. The word Satan however is the one that stands out, so thoughts begin to wonder around in your head thats not good. So you hear the song and it has a very dark, morbid creepy sound, including that german voice that just tops it off. YOu dont know what the hell he's saying, but there's alot of emphasis behind the voice. So you think if this band is satanic or not which they've been rewarded with plenty of times. But then you find out that its just a reciept for cake and the words the title translateds "The Eggs of Satan" lol, I dont know about you guys, but people judge to quickly and when they find out it was just some joke, you look stupid after words. The greatest modern man around.

I really love Aenima right now. Such a great album. I could listen to Third Eye all day.

I'm also digging Aenima at the moment. Awesome stuff.

btw, congrats on your 7000th post!:thumb:

Yeah, I usually don't notice it when I pass another thousand.

Does anyone know where I can find any good Tool bootlegs?

Sorry, I meant like audio files.

Nevermind, I found the Oklahoma Show. VERY awesome.

And I'd like to provide a link for all of you.

They have 4 full Tool concert videos on there. I downloaded the one from '92. It's pure awesomeness especially becasue the club they played at was so small. Really intimate.

There ya go, lucky yanks, you get Tool AND Isis

Is this still the minitour? Or did that all fall through :-/

Im pretty sure this is the serious tour now. Since songs like Opiate have been sneaking into the staple setlist, it seems MJKs voice is ready for a more testing setlist variation.

Be interesting to see where any potential winter tour goes to

ha, Isis opening for Tool.
I bet that put a few smiles on faces.

Man, I saw Tool live at the Metaltown festival in Gothenburg. F**cking awesome! The biggest surprise to me was that they played 'The Pot', but it was unbelievebly good!

Hey guys. I asked the guitar forum this but they didn't respond, so I thought I'd ask you guys considering I know a lot of you are guitar players.

I was going to get some new pickups in my guitar today. I was full on excited and was like "Hell yeah, EMGs baby!" But then I went to play some guitar before I was going to leave and found my wannabe Adam Jones tone and wondered if I could ever get that distorted but so clear Adam Jones sound with EMGs. Is that possible?

I know that his tone is like the holy grail of tones and can't be nailed because of all the specifics, but sometimes you can get so close ya know? Just don't want to be stuck with those muddy metal tones because of my pickups.

I was looking at some Seymour Duncan pickups and they seem like a good idea. Just need a little help deciding.

You sir, are a god among men. APC, DFA 1979, Dredg, and so many others. I'm like a kid in a candy store.

I can get pretty close with my PRS tremonti pups in my PRS single cut

So I get to see ISIS with Tool now... cool, I hear they're good.

Tool in Jersey!!! Woohoo!!

Camden 9/28, the day after my birthday!

Any chance that Tool will come back to the States in 2007 for a tour?

I am probably not able to make the September 7th show in Los Angeles because of school just starting up and such, but might be able to get to the Bakersfield show on September 5th.

Any chance Tool will be touring Latina AMerica??

:upset:

I'm seeing Tool at the Street Scene in San Diego. Now that those new dates are up I guess I'll be able to see them again!

That's awesome.

[QUOTE=Daven]Any chance Tool will be touring Latina AMerica??

Probably next year.

[QUOTE=SmashingPumpkin]Probably next year.[/QUOTE]
