^C'mon, I know someboyd has an opinion. I mean, we ARE Tool fans.

I like that one, or the green one with the tower.. rocket.. thing.
As for Pelican.. I'd get this one: [url]https://secure.bluecollardistro.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=HH-PELICAN-SHIRT-06&Category_Code=TEXTILES&Store_Code=HHI[/url]

On the subject of T-Shirts, anyone know of any websites at all with Explosions in the Sky shirts?

Crap, all of the best Isis shirts are out of stock.

Do you guys remember those rumors of Adrian Belew, Danny Carey, and Les Claypool making music together? Well, it's true, and it's on one of Adrian Belew's solo albums. I'm currently downloading "Writing on the Wall" and I would encourage you Tool fans to do so. :)

Wow, Claypool and Carey are awesome. I don't think Les has ever sat in with a bad drummer in his life.

Oh wait, he auditioned for Metallica didn't he?

Wasn't that brought up a while back, and faith+1 I think said he owned it or something.

YD- :lol:

Mike- Oh, did he? I thought that, at the time it was brought up, it was still in the "rumor" stage. Meh, still figured I'd share, heh.

You'll get soo much e-sex if you find that shirt in-stock somewhere.


And more opinions on the Pelican shirta would be appreciated. Its down between these 2:

Nice, man, those are the two Pelican shirts I was considering as well. In the end, I went with the first one because 1) that one absolutely rules, and 2) I like the color, because I need more shirts that aren't black.

I'm also getting a Mare shirt and an Isis shirt. Actually, I'll probably get a Mare hooded sweat, a Pelican shirt, and an Isis shirt.

I want a EITS shirt, but I don't think they exist :upset:

I want that green Isis shirt sooo bad. I wish they had them in-stock.

[QUOTE=Dr. Jake Destructo]It was me who negged you. The "fu[size=2]cking[/size] idiot" is you. It was neither the Eulogy comment nor the shrooms comment, but your overall idiocy and the incoherence of your post that brought me to neg you. Have a nice day. Gtfo. :)[/QUOTE]

Oh, I'm sorry. Since when did sarcasm and randomness become a crime?

But by the way, since you wasted your life points negging me, it merely proves that you have fallen victim to an elitist system created by imperialistic ideals brought about through idiosyncratic beliefs such as "authority" and a heriarchal(think I spelled that wrong...) ladder. So have a nice day being a TOOL of the system.

Hell, in fact, neg me again. I'd positively love it.

I do have a question though.

Does anyone know of a place besides MX where I can get good drum tabs of Tool songs? A lot of Carrey's drumming is very subliminal, and it's hard to find good tabs on it.

[QUOTE=Kage]Yeah, that's what I was talking about. It's kind of a conceptual thing, that when you hear/feel it, you'd know what I was talking about, but it's hard to explain. I don't know the exact gauge strings Adam uses, but I'd guess he uses 10s, which are designed for standard E or Drop D tuning. When you tune down so low as B, the string becomes really lax and loses the tension it had, thus shifting the action on the guitar lower and giving the intonation and sound of the notes a different tone. It sounds "looser" so-to-speak.

To do it properly, you would have to buy thicker gauged strings that are designed to be that low, and adjust the nut of the guitar to work with those guages.

Adam just tunes the strings down, and doesn't use the thicker gauge strings and adjust his guitar accordingly. In this way, the intonation and tone on Adam's guitar when he uses that tuning is quite different, but it sounds really cool, in my opinion.[/QUOTE]

Really? That's crazy. He actually tunes that low w/ 10's? I tried tuning drop C with 10's once, and it sounded like sh*t! Imagine that in drop B. I thought he used a 7 string, but I guess I'm wrong.

[QUOTE=faith+1]Nah, they do it for 3 weeks at the store. The winners then go back in a month (Where im am going) If you win there you go to A selected place in your region, Then finally hollywood. :) I have only made it to the second stage, but im doing it just for fun.[/QUOTE]

Good Luck. I made it to the regonials, where we played at the House of Blues in Orlando. (My feet on the same ground as DT, 311, G3.....)

At the local finals one of the judges was the bass player from Live. I got to hang with him and he told me i was a pretty good guitar player...:smoke:

Wow. Since when did using phrases like "elitist system," "imperialistic ideals," and "idiosyncratic beliefs" make you an intellectual? Especially describing an internet forum? GG moron. You pretty much insulted the entire forum with your wannabe-intellectual bull****, and then you ask us where to find tabs? Are you seriously retarded?

Wow, what a load of complete garbage. You're going to have to do more than throw some big words together to impress people here. You've got to have rules and some kind of leadership to keep a place like this from falling apart, nice try you jack[size=2]as[/size]s.

You come in here and start (trying to) bash one of the most respected/coolest regulars in this thread and elsewhere and then expect us to answer a question? Nice try.

no offense but since I joined I've noticed that people on these threads are too goddam touchy. no offense to anyone but arent we here to discuss Tool? not thats its not normal to get pissed off at some jackass but too much just kills a thread.

Everyone has seen that.

[QUOTE=Diego]Everyone has seen that.[/QUOTE]

See, it's this kind of assholishness that he's talking about. The man merely asked if anyone had seen the video, yet you feel the need to reply to him with a condescending post.

Oh and BTW in case a lot of you thought the words were too big and didn't realize what I was talking about, I was referring mainly to the rep system, not the forum as a whole or everyone in general on it. So while you made fun of me using "big words" I guess you had a hard time understanding them too huh?

:rolleyes:

No, I understood exactly what you said. Trouble is, you were waaay too general and your thesarus skills too poor (either that or you're fresh out of eighth grade or ninth grade history class) to be talking about any subject in specific. Again, nice try, but before you try to expand your vocabulary, make sure youc an do it effectively. You may be able to place the words together in some form of vague coherence, but that does not mean it will be effective, as you proved with your post.

As Kage just said, you may be able to use big words, but that doesn't mean you can use them correctly. Thank you, come again.

[QUOTE]Does anyone know of a place besides MX where I can get good drum tabs of Tool songs? A lot of Carrey's drumming is very subliminal, and it's hard to find good tabs on it.[/QUOTE] If you are going to look at tabs for a tool song, you are not good enough yet. Spend time on Rudiments, or something that matters. Than learn the songs by ear once it is trained. Playing to a song isnt learning to drum. There are basic fundamentals, as with anything that are more important than learning a passage to a track.

I haven't, but I'm an exception. Dialup isn't internet any more. :upset:

Marshall, what did you end up playing in the drum off?
