Mastodon Gets Pranked by Tool 2006-12-17 by Jom | 16 Comments | Mastodon, who has been nominated for a Grammy for Best Metal Performance, is still continuing its European tour with Tool. This past Friday, the opening band was pranked by the headliner in a bizarre series of events involving apes.

The reason why Tool donned the ape costumes and pranked the band onstage is unclear at this time.

Since people call Mastodon "Mastadon".

try playing in front of a huge crowd and all a sudden four guys in gorilla costumes coming running on stage ruining your song. or at least distracting you
