F yeah!

[Wheres the beef?]

anyway, seems weird Tool would wanna go on tour with no new material for a summer....must be this damn economy.

Allegedly they are working on an album. Who knows how much effort they are really putting into it though.

[Wheres the beef?]

BlueMan was one of my favs.

[Mr. Dylanja]

[Alchemy]

Here's hoping for El Paso.

[TommyboyUNM]

Here's hoping for El Paso.

Oddly enough, they like to play Las Cruces.

[suprefan]

I got it, Tool would be great in a park. Like Grant, Liberty State or Golden Gate.

Stanley...

this argument can go on all night...it's about preference...there's no right answer...some people tend to like excitement and energy on stage (which includes mess ups, improvs, whatever else)....rather than a band that can stick every note and make you think you're listening to a studio recording while watching movie screens in the background. Again, to each their own. I have nothing against Tool...

I completely agree man... myself, I've seen Tool live, and I found it extremely boring. The four of them just stood on stage in silhouette, you couldn't even see them play their instruments. I thought I was the only one that found them this boring so I'm glad to see I'm not entirely alone. I don't think Radiohead is exactly the most exciting live band either, though their mixing up of the setlists can be fun. To each his own of course.

But with that said, I'm not being the troll of the thread here, I really want to see them again and I think this announcement is great news. At the time that I saw them, I also was not at all a fan of their music, and that has since changed quite a bit. I would gladly see them this summer if given the chance. OSL would be awesome.

Well, that'd be good too. A Perfect Circle dropped by El Paso. It was really cool.

Didnt El Paso get screwed last tour due to illness or something then it took them 9 months to do the make up date?

[kreutz2112]

I hope it's the "Hey we're going on tour this summer because we forgot about most of the songs on our first three albums on our last three tours so we'd like to play those for you now" tour.

[SeeYouAuntie]

Chicago or bust.

[Wheres the beef?]

I hope it's the "Hey we're going on tour this summer because we forgot about most of the songs on our first three albums on our last three tours so we'd like to play those for you now" tour.

Doubtful. But that would be awesome. If you break into the other albums the potential setlists get pretty crazy.

[Jon Blazed]

I hope they get added to Coachella and if not I'm sure they'll play two nights in Vegas.

YES.

[sonnyboy11]

Just when I thought I was going to start saving money...

Damn! Yea, I have been posting up on this a Toolshed. If true, I can pretty much wave goodbye... to my cash! Tool!

Ummm.. damn. Confused right now because I am a fan boi. Any chance they do Coachella? Are they doing only festivals? grind grind

[Jon Blazed]

Fuck yea there is a chance. They are only the best band ever and they are touring...why not ten anniversary coachella late addition?

[faxman75]

I knew there was a tour involved. They usually play Phoenix, I hope we are included.

Supre?


I'm feeling the same way about Albuquerque.

[JSam67]

It's going to be a good summer.

[HEADSTRUCK]

I will hit up a show or 2 for sure

[Monklish]

Why has no one brought up the fact that we might have a chance of hearing brand new material on this tour since they're working on the next album?

And Nirvana isn't even in the same class as Tool. Sillybears.

[ThomThom]

I can most definitely do another Tool show or two... Berkeley Greek? Please Jesus?

[mattpach]

I will have to try and make one show.

[corbo]

YES. i'm definitely going

Distinct possibility, but that would be surprise me more than if they played the same shit again with one or two changes at most. I know Adam and Justin are writing shit as I type, but you know the pace that they do shit at. It's never rushed. I can see them bringing back something like The Grudge with some new twist or intro and we would all go " Fuck. Jesus. What a Monster of a song. Forgot about that one. Christ Almighty." Flood was out of control at Bonnaroo and Nokia.

[dorkfish]

Probably Bill Graham Civic again or Outside Lands.

[Mr. Dylanja]

Remember that they played 10K DAYS material on the Lateralus tour, who knows what they have done or for how long they've had it done.

Flood was indeed the shit.
