That drumming is great man!

[QUOTE=WAK (while killing)]Does anyone know of more US tour dates, specifically, Maryland?


Theres nothing gayer than a slapy, popy, happy bass solo[/QUOTE]

hey man maryland is sweet :h5:

[QUOTE=sabbath1991]i hate tool fanboys even though they are such a good band[/QUOTE]
The tool fanboys are a great band? What?

:)

Does anyone one know the dates for the Australian shows? I can't find them.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
There arent any Aussie dates as far as I know.

[QUOTE=wefles]Does anyone one know the dates for the Australian shows? I can't find them.[/QUOTE]

There are none.

Tool have dates booked until December, except for a 3 week break in October, and considering there is 0 chance of them coming here during that break, it'll be ages until Australia sees them. If we see them at all, that is. Anyway, the dates they have up at the moment leaves them with January wide open, and every Aussie knows that's also the same time that Australia's biggest festival (the Big Day Out) occurs. It's seeming like that could be a good time for them to tour here. Anyway, if they do, I DEMAND side shows. There is no way I want to be seeing Tool at some crappy festival when I could see them at their own show.

YES!!!!

I just got tickets for the Nov 22 show in Dublin, it'll be my first time seeing them.

I can't wait!!!

Does anyone know what their current set listings are for their shows?

[QUOTE=Shadius]Sweet! When/where can I buy tickets?[/QUOTE]

Can someone post here as soon as they're available? I don't want to miss out and have to pay a fortune. I'll probably go the Manchester date if possible.

I'm going to my first Tool show Sept. 29 at the Tweeter Center, which is an outdoor amplitheater (sp?). It's going to be great.

UK tour tickets are supposedly up tommorrow, for anyone (like me) who is after them

And also Tool related, any parents out there must make sure their kids have a good start in life [url]http://www.babyrockrecords.com/web/page.asp?pgs=product&catid=41&id=1037[/url]

I can just imagine the 1 year old kid screaming "Jesus can you f*cking whistle when he/she hears Sober"

[QUOTE]Havnt they already been? i went to see them at glasgow[/QUOTE] That was back in June. This is a full UK tour in November.

Wish i had the money to go again:angry:

I just got into Tool, I didn't realise all the fuss about the band but now I do :)

[QUOTE=al98]Wish i had the money to go again:angry:[/QUOTE]
Same, but instead I'm using my money to see Opeth who I haven't seen before so it's all good.

[QUOTE=Neoteric]I just got into Tool, I didn't realise all the fuss about the band but now I do :)[/QUOTE]

What albums/songs got you into them??

So I was gonna see them on the 27th with my girlfriend.

But we broke up.

So darn. :p Maybe I'll just ask her if she wants me to scalp her ticket?

I was gonna go see em the day after my birthday, but my parents won't let me go. :angry:

[QUOTE=Neoteric]I just got into Tool, I didn't realise all the fuss about the band but now I do :)[/QUOTE]same.

Why won't they let you go to the concert?

[QUOTE=blue3]Why won't they let you go to the concert?[/QUOTE]

I live about 45 minutes/an hour away from the venue, but my ever-so-hopeful parents say "oh, i'm sure they'll come to a closer town". That's becuase they won't give me a ride there, nor do they trust my friends to give me a ride there.

Plus its a "school night", which happens to be in september which happens to be a month during which no learning takes place, especially for seniors (which i am going to be)

Sorry about the rant. I'm just bummed out that i might not be able to see my fav band before i go to college.

There's a reason I bought only one ticket to go to Tool for myself. I want to go and experiance the band by myself, with no distractions what so ever. I want it to be the perfect Tool experiance. :D

I just got my tickets for the Sept. 30th show in D.C. I'm a happy guy right now. And what makes me happier, is that they're free. The woman is getting them for me for my birthday. Win. :)

The cheapest tickets for the Tool show in Houston are over 100 dollars.

Fu[size=2]ck[/size] that. I will probably never see Tool live, actually.

100 Dollars!! that's a lot.

Tool never plays around here so I'm probably in the same position. Wish I still lived in Houston :(

They Dont Come to NZ much either, I dont even think they are going to Australia anytime soon.

Browsing the Toolnavy site has led me to a singular conclusion:

These people are a new class of moron.

They are all pretty much the same people, a criteria is mandatory to join it seems:

*You must like Tool (duh.)
*You must adapt any and all phillosopies that the band members embrace.
*You must be agnostic or athiest. God's stupid and he's just a fairy tale, basically.
*You MUST hate Bush. This cannot be negotiated at all.
*You must hold the belief that 9/11 was a conspiracy.

Sorry about that...but a man can only take so much stupid.

There's always sites around like that. Thats why I can read opinions on there, Kotaku, blabbermouth, etc.

At least on here theres an opinion for each side of the arguments.

My friends met this girl from Holland, and she said she saw Tool on their Lateralus tour and got tix for 20 bucks.

Man, screw Holland. Legal drugs, cheap Tool, what else could one ask for?

:envy:

Syncratic - Screw that site, man.

Kage - Hate to hear that man. I got mine for 65 bucks; are the tickets in Houston on sale at Ticketmaster, or are you looking at buying scalped tickets?

Any of you guys members of Toolarmy?

After rehashing what you said, I think the least important prerequisite is the first one. :lol:

Huber - Psh. Are you?

My brother is a member of Toolarmy, and it can be worse than toolnavy. The postings are so random and nonsensical its hard to tell that your at a band forum. The advantages of joining when it started was worth it. My brother got a signed pic with all 4 sigs and a nice shirt. Other than that its not worth it.

[SIZE=2]As far as Toolnavy goes, when the new album came out, everything went to sh!t. wait a year, and it will go back to the way it was, with much better conversation and exchange of ideas. [/SIZE]

Oh, yeah, and I forgot:

*Drugs are the only way you can be cool and/or connect with a higher plane. The ONLY way.

Maybe?

Yeah. It's not that bad. The new threads are all bitching about ticket prices, but if you look at the main threads there's some good stuff in there.

Shi' no.

I've done some pretty "hardcore" drugs, and it helped me thnk alot clearer, but in the end, it wasn't really worth it, and I was just left wanting more.

Drugs suck for writing music.
And being cool.


But good for rambling so much that you look and sound like a complete douchebag.

I don't believe "thinking clearer" was the right words for that. Drugs distort perception and effect the ability to think clearly.

They can let you see things you wouldn't normally see though, and I guess you can reflect on that post-drugs.

That's the way I thought of it when I did it, "thinking clearer".

But the stuff I did made me paranoid as hell.

Anyone hear any rumors as to where in PA they're playing on Oct. 3rd?

I've given up on fhave a spiritual experience with drugs. Now I just do them recreationally and leave my spirituality to a sober mind all its own.

Hey folks, for the Aussies out there, Shows have been announced 24th jan for Sydney, 31st for Melbourne....Big Day Out anyone??...
