View Full Version : Why the freaking DVD hasnt come out...
Why? because the dvd will be with the new album. How do I know? Cause Tool is bitches like that. They're gonna toy with us all the way to 2006, if this is released by then.

Salival was released in the year before Lateralus... Now if the forthcoming album from Tool is released this year, that doesn't leave much time for Tool to bring out this live DVD (assuming the guys want to release the DVD before the album)...
Therefore I predict that the DVD will be released with the CD, in some sort of special package...
God, I want this DVD and a double LP from Tool so bad...
no doubt. i always get blown away beyond what I ever thought each time I hear a new Tool or APC cd

If I can paraphrase Adam here I believe he once stated “You have to leave your fans wanting more, kind of like a heroin junkie, just make them wait and wait to get that hit and once they do, it will be like the best hit they have ever received” That quote is way off but the meaning is the same.
Basically Adam and the rest of Tool are arseholes.
But talented arseholes.
I think your spot on Inner, 2006 is highly likely, if! they decide to do a DVD as well which I hope they do, but then again it might just take them that long to create the album.
"Who knows, maybe the next Tool record will be a cool DVD with a whole film and soundtrack involved in it," vocalist Maynard James Keenan said. "That's a possibility. This whole [Tool] project has been about not limiting ourselves."

2001
If you think Tool's new epic, evocative Lateralus sounds like the futuristic soundtrack to a mind-blowing film, you're not alone. The bandmembers are as interested in presenting their art visually as musically, and they're thinking about creating a full-length Tool movie in the vein of Pink Floyd's "The Wall." "Pink Floyd are our heroes, and we'd totally love to do something on that level, but in our own way," guitarist Adam Jones said. "We've been talking about that, and the people we've met with have the kind of pull to get it done."
The biggest obstacle, of course, is money. "It's so hard to find someone who's willing to invest in a project like this," he explained. "So much of what we do is based on experimentation, and if you're trying to get money from people to make a film, they want to know exactly what it's going to look like, how many frames you're going to shoot, how many people you're going to work with and what the budget is going to be. And to me, it's not that concrete. [Making a film should be] more like jamming and writing music." Jones speaks from experience.
Before he was in Tool, he worked as a Hollywood special effects designer on movies including "Jurassic Park," "Edward Scissorhands" and "Terminator 2: Judgment Day," and he has shot and overseen the production of all the band's videos to date, including "Prison Sex," "Sober" and "Stinkfist." Even if the band can't get a movie studio to fork over the cash, Tool might create something itself and release it on a smaller scale. "Who knows, maybe the next Tool record will be a cool DVD with a whole film and soundtrack involved in it," vocalist Maynard James Keenan said. "That's a possibility. This whole [Tool] project has been about not limiting ourselves."
I so want this to happen I don't give a fuck if it takes them another 2 years!

That would be most awesome.
I wonder what the theme of a Tool movie would be. I can't help but think they'd go for a vague lyrical narrative like in The Wall.
Hmm theme aye, I would love to see as much footage from live shows as possible and not necessarily a movie but then again if Adam directs it who knows what type of nasty shit he can create given the time and money.
Maybe Maynard himself might take the lead role if they do a movie, something along the lines of a cross-dressing hippie trying to discover how and why the cyborgs have taken over the planet to which he finds that an alien race has control over them and their goal is to wipe out the human species so that they can take over the rest of the resources but through the power of music(Tool music) it scrambles the cyborgs circuits like an EMP device and irritates the aliens so much that they mass suicide, who knows.

Part 2
After along hiatus by the aliens that managed to escape, they have decided to finish off what they started. The hero from the original has sadly passed on but not after leaving hidden messages in compact discs that contain some form of 'Rock and or Roll'(it's been half a millennium since the first invasion and most of earth's population died).
A certain race of child was born, this race had psychic abilities like most new borns born after the great war, but that wasn't the strange part, no the strange part was they all had similar birth marks located behind the neck, running vertical with the spine, the mark contained letters of an old language that was once used a long time ago, the letters were, T, O, O, L.
In a museum was a shiny disc that archeologists had found upon searching an old site that laid ruined beneath the waves of the Pacific ocean. The disc was shiny on the bottom but was black on top with eyes going around the outer side of the disc and it also had a hole in the center. This baffled the many scientists who tried to figure out where this disc was made and for what purpose was it made for.
In this new civilization because many people had become higher beings there was no need for the arts and music and space travel had become a daily thing. The quest for material things had become obsolete, and many strived to reach out futher into the heavens.
As the aliens prepared to finish the race of earthly beings off, they had developed new devices to combat the sound that had drove them insane in the beginning. These were called 'ear plugs', these were very versatile as the aliens did not communicate through sound but through telepathy.
Early indications from earth radar scans and scouts situated deep in the solar system it appeared to them that a massive swarm of objects was approaching Earth and would reach them in 111 Earth days. No one new what was going on and why these things were approaching but scientist's eyebrows started to raise when satellites were destroyed without reason and people situated in space stations did not communicate back to base, they had simply disappeared.
Meanwhile a school excursion was under way with 30 youths attending a history class at a popular museum. As the group leader approached a closed window cabinet she started to talk about this disc that had been discovered years ago.
Group leader- "This object is of unknown origin, some say it is technology from the old world, some say it is a coaster to place your drink over but the most popular thought is that it was a piece of jewelry"
"Excuse me sir" Said a tall young man "is it true that these discs can be found all over the country? and that this has no relevant function what so ever?"
GL- "yes this is true but this was one of the first discovered and is in perfect condition, unlike many which are eroded or are snapped in peices"
As the group leader continued on with the class, several stayed behind to view the disc. As they peered at the disc they some how felt connected to it, it was as if it was giving off some kind of vibration, but they couldn't understand why, then without warning it moved! ever so slightly. They felt compelled to have it, to take it and use it in some manner. So without anyone watching they opened the cabinet, took the disc and left the muesum.
100 Days to go.
shit sorry once I started I couldn't stop, I'm sure you see where this is going anyway.

I am never joking if I am talking about Tool. Adam has even bought a cucumber for this movie. I read this on one of the secret links in toolband.com. Its pretty hard to find, but have patience and you will find it, as well as the release date of the new album titled "Tämä on silkkaa paskapuhetta ja kusetusta". There are also tracks titled "Kyrpä" and "Pillu". The letter ä is from the eastern mythology, I dont actually know where it comes from, but I think that Tool has got some influences from the book "Älkää nyt otttako tosissanne, paskapäät."

Launch Radio Networks reports: TOOL intends to record some dates on its next North American tour for a live CD and DVD, according to Harddrive Radio. The initial dates for the outing have been announced, with the first confirmed show on March 15th in Las Vegas. Although TOOL tapes all its live shows, drummer Danny Carey told Launch that the band doesn't want to release each one as groups like PEARL JAM have done. "I doubt if we'll go that far with it, but we'll definitely be releasing some live DVDs and specific concerts that we feel strongly about," he said. "I think that's just a cooler way to do it. Pick the best stuff instead of just flood the market with a bunch of mediocre crap (laughs). No one can be their best every night. It's great that people may want all that, you know, if they're real hardcore fans, but I don't know, I think quality rather than quantity is a lot more important way to go."
Some tickets for the new tour begin going on sale this Saturday (January 27).
The stage production on the next TOOL jaunt will be "more intense" than the band's last trip, with computer animation and props possibly being included.
The band is supporting its fourth album, "10,000 Days", which has sold 1.4 million copies since arriving last May. The CD's next single is "Jambi."
I found that on a forum earlier, however it was from Jan. 27th and the Hard Drive Radio news archive only goes back to the beginning of the month of Feb. I apologize if this has been posted already.

Good bump.
Very good bump!!! Well, it's nice to know the band is actually working on something. Sounds like they want to make it really special.
His comment about this next round of shows being more intense than the last round has me very excited about seeing them next month!

They don't video tape all of their shows. The do audio tape them, though.
And I mean professional quality videos--as far as I know, they use a MiniDV type camera to film from offstage, based on many eye witness reports.

Man, I too am really looking forward to this. I always wanted Tool to have a nice DVD video of them playing at a cool venue. I know that it would be near impossible to do this, but I've always wanted to see them pull of something as intimate as the unplugged Alice in Chains DVD. What a great live DVD! The audience didn't yell and carry on (or at least they drowned it out) in the wrong parts. I would love to see a show like that. Big enough for Tool to have a really engaging stageshow, but still maintain a certain level intimacy with a respectful crowd that knows to listen to the music and to WAIT UNTIL THE SONG IS OVER BEFORE CHEERING! LOL.. I'm sorry, I've seen them live, and I know it feels natural to cheer them really loud when they something really cool in a song, but it puts a damper on things for me. Picture this, the crowd going wild after a breakdown in Schism and NO ONE gets to hear the the beautifully subtle "Is this a test? It has to be." whispering. That's just my opion, it's not like I hold it against the crowd or anything, but it seems some of the people who inevitibly go to these shows don't seem to know when their songs end. So they cheer and cheer and then say to themselves, "Oh yeah, there's like three more minutes." Sorry for the rant, but does anybody feel the same?

The Molson Amphitheatre, Toronto. Fucking dead silence. Granted, i was at the outer rim, on the grass, in the pouring rain, but it was quiet through the songs. The crowd new what to do, for the most part. "We love tool" chants were a little embarrasing at times, but love is love.
Someone mentioned props... i saw a cowboy hat?

You are right, any dvd of TOOL shouldn't be released. Besides, how do you give a lethal injection to a disk????

so we need to read your wanking literature before we can understand your wanking posts?

I think they should release something with some live video, just about every show they have ever done is bootlegged on the internet somewhere, but it is all shitty quality, it almost certainly wouldn't be a straightforward live show though, knowing them (adam especially) it would be some mind blowing epic done in a way that no one has ever even thought about doing before. If one ever does come out, prepare for super cool video/packaging. It would be hard to make a live tool dvd not look cheesy. One of those you gotta be there things I think.

Yeah, I think their live shows call for the "you had to have been there" scenario. To be honest Tool will make a mistake every now and then. If you've got an ear for it you can tell when a note is slightly off or a guitar is slightly out of tune. Tiny shit like that is acceptable at live arena type shows, granted Tool hardly ever has slip-ups.
I think if they were to make a live DVD they would have to have that relatively small quiet venue, with a great stage show. Also, they would all need to be total perfectionists that night. Making sure everything is tuned perfectly and trying to ensure that they "nail" the complex parts. They would really need to tap in to that original energy they had at the time they wrote each song and play it to it's fullest potential. I'm not saying they don't do this and play their hearts already. I'm just saying they could really make an astonishing live DVD that could serve as a testament to why Tool was a truly legendary musical act of our own time. They won't be around forever.
When you see a Jimi Hendrix video after hearing how fucking unbelieveable he was in his time, you begin to understand what gave him the status in rock that he had. Years later, I don't want my kids watching some stupid ass fuzzy video with horrible sound, in a crappy venue, with some drunk ass yelling stupid shit in the background and them thinking "So... this was Tool? My parents favorite band,,,"
Now, I know if my kids were to listen to their actual albums they might appreciate that a lot more, but how am I to tell them they really sounded like they do on CD when all I have is cell phone video, and old shaky-camera bullshit?
I really hope they come out with a DVD like this. I wouldn't be surprised if they never do, but I just don't understand why. Maybe it's some point they are trying to prove. "You have to have been there and if you weren't there you simply missed it" Wanting their legend to live on strictly through word of mouth instead of just popping in a DVD. Regardless, I think it's project they could have a lot of fun doing, and obviously it make plenty of fans wet their pants.
Peace guys.

I would have said pretty much the exact same thing.
10,000 Days is a fucking GOOD album, yet there are people here who tear it to shreds. Think about what would happen if Tool released a sub-par live DVD. Even if it was pretty good in terms of concert DVDs, it wouldn't be good enough for a lot of fans (or Tool's own high standards).
They probably haven't released anything yet because what they have filmed so far just isn't good enough. Maybe it's their performance, maybe it's that they haven't been able to get the look they want in terms of cameras, lighting, effects... who knows?
I'm choosing to just be patient and know that if/when they finally release a live DVD, I can put my full faith in it being amazing.

will it be a highlight dvd or a full concert?

Judging from rumors it'll be a highlight DVD. Either way would be fine with me. I think they are a little paranoid about releasing a DVD. Worried that it won't meet it's fullest pontential. I know they can do it though. I just hope they do it before too long. Look at Pink Floyd. They didn't release a full version of "Darkside of the Moon." until "Pulse" in 2006 (which was a 1994 performance). It's a great DVD, but look how long it took. They were all getting into their fifties and early sixties. Still great DVD. Check out "pulse" esp. disc 2.

Pink Floyd is a far different case, though. Their heyday was definitely NOT in the era of music DVDs and such. ***, they were at their peak before the VCR was even invented. So for them to do a DVD is sort of...weird. That was a PPV concert that was originally turned into a VHS/Laserdisc, and then way later brought out as a DVD.
I remember even 5 years ago, music DVDs were hard to find. Now, every band out there has a DVD or five out on the shelves--except Tool. I think on one hand, they don't want to let people down (because their shows have blown many a mind), but on the other hand, perhaps they just don't want to join in the monotony? So many bands have full concert DVDs out, and you know what? Very few of them are interesting to anyone but the hardcore fans. And knowing Tool, they won't cater to the hardcore fan, they'll cater to themselves. Since they've (obviously) seen every single one of their shows, I highly doubt they are going to release an entire show.
What I'm looking out for (and am excited to see) are the tracks which really showcase each band member doing SOMETHING. In other words, I fully expect to see some sort of sequence that shows off that video program that Adam works with, the one that modifies the video clips as a visualization for the song, kind of like what NIN did with the video sequence in And All That Could Have Been, except Tool would show off just that segment. I can imagine that being for a new song, like The Pot or Jambi (I loved the videos for those). I expect to see a full version of Wings for Marie, showing off Maynard. I STILL expect to see them show off Danny (like that one mysterious vid of the Forty Six & 2 drumo solo?), so maybe they'll throw some Forty Six & 2 or Rosetta Stoned action in there. I'm HOPING that they'll throw in Vicarious and show off the ambient style intro...perhaps a full "trilogy" video? They're playing Vicarious/Lateralus/Ænema at every show, I hope it will make it onto DVD...
That's all I can think of for now, but I'm somehow positive that at least ONE of those things will appear on a live Tool DVD sometime. Maybe not before Tool breaks up, maybe not before all the members die, maybe not even before we die...but someday, I expect an official release with one of those clips :P
