New Tool Video thread (something interesting) and pics

[SomethingSpecial]

For anyone who lives in Pasadena, CA (or near there). You know those signs that are put up when a movie is being filmed, usuallu neon sings with one or two words on them pointing the way to the movie set? Well, before Lateralus came out, those sings were all over pasadena with Tool stickers on them, pointing towards some studio in old town pasadena (which I later found out was where post production is done on Tool videos). I just went through Pasadena today, and as I got off the freeway on the corner of Fair Oaks and Corson St. there was a bright neon sign, with an arrow pointing down the street with A Tool sticker on it! This tells me that their finishing up the video.

(Kind of an obscure post, I apologize.)

[noisetherapy]

yea they use those neon signs everywhere a production is going on. its cool passing by something that says 'xmen3 -->'

[Ryan]

go back there and take a photo!

[#Notion]

No, go back there with a video camera and infiltrate the damn place!

Seriously thats some cool news considering all the bullshit that's flying around lately.

[Ocelot199]

go back there and take a photo!
I support this notion.

Would it be difficult/irritating for you to go back and take a pic of it? I'd like to see it.

[SomethingSpecial]

Yeah, I'll go tomorrow and take a pic of it. Hope someone doesnt take it! Well, there's probably a ton of them around. A friend of mine grabbed one last time. I used to work at this coffee shop that was right around the corner from where they do their videos and on my day off of all days, Adam and Maynard came into my work to get coffee. So yeah, that sucked. Anyway, the sticker is black oval shaped with Tool in a cursive-ish font. How would I post the pic (nevermind, photobucket duh)

[Khadgar346]

that sounds really tight. why do they announce it to the public tho?

You took off a day of work that would have let you meet Maynard and Adam.

Wow. I'd be slightly pissed.

[KILL_CLOWNS]

Wow, if I was working I would of let them have all the free coffee they wanted.

[SomethingSpecial]

Wow. I'd be slightly pissed.
Yeah it sucked. My friend Lenny was working that day (this is at The Equator Cafe in old town pasadena, and the studio they do their production at (I think) is called Fire something). He was rubbing it in my face for a month. Another cool thing happened to me there. Right before APC put out Mer De Noms, I had received an advance copy of it and was playing it at the cafe. And this dude comes up to me and starts talking about the cd. When I ask him his name, he tells me Kabir. And I'm like, not the Kabir, and he's like... yeah. I had him show me his liscence. It was him, or at least someone else named Kabir

[Ocelot199]

You met kabir?

Hes cool. He gave me my custom user title. Thats how cool he is.

I wish I lived somewhere cool :/

I've met David Draiman before. Is that cool?

[KILL_CLOWNS]

I've had a chance to meet Danny a few times. He has drum clinics and he has had a few in Overland Park, Kansas (him being from Kansas). However, I'm not a drummer.

[Ocelot199]

I had a chance to meet him backstage at a Pigmy concert a few years ago. Met the rest of the band at tower records (danny was busy with other shit), and they invited me backstage at their concert that night. Couldn't go cause of school in the morning... I was kinda pissed :/

[orange.juice]

Does anyone know Thomas Gottschalk? Anyone?

[magnolia]

Since we're gonna do this... about 2 months ago, I was in Seattle and I went to hail a cab, but when it stopped for me, I looked back and realized Maynard and Justin had been hailing the same cab. I got the hell out of the way, of course, then they looked at each other and laughed then Maynard asked me where I was going. I said I was on my way to the ferry terminal, and he said it was the right direction, and said I could share the cab. I was so nervous... but of course I got in... and we were driving, doing some terrifying small-talk and....... and........... and Maynard and Justin RAPED ME... *breaks down crying*

[#Notion]

You sure it wasn't Cheech and Chong?

[RDescartes]

I live in Pasadena too.

I've seen these signs. They're posted at the exits of the Freeways.

Yeah, their video post place is in Pasadena and I saw the signs for the previous videos.

I don't think it's the Firehouse (which is right down the alley and across the street from the Equator). That place is a SUPER posh recording studio I've been to a few times. Unaware of any video post work going on there. Of course they could be working on the audio post end of it there.

However Screaming Lobster was in Pasadena. No longer exists under that name. But I believe they still use the same space. Lots of graphics/video post studios in Old Town.

Nice, someone to corroborate my story. Whereabouts in Pasadena do you live? I think that studio they goto for the video shit is one street south of Green, next to some internet cafe'. I think.

And since you all are doing the guess who I've met. I've met no one from Tool :( But I did meet everyone from APC (excluding Maynard) and Josh Frees recorded the drums for a band I used to play in (big deal, anyone can hire him for $1000 a song). So that was cool. I shook his hand, and I'm sure he's shaked Maynards hand, which of course has touched Maynard's Dick, so essentially, Iv'e touched Maynards dick.

[Rubb.]

i mat maynard after the APC show in Austin a few years back. Very nice to me. All he said was no pictures. He signed my APC cover.


Also met Justin and Danny when TOOL came to Austin. Danny is the coolest.

ha, its not proven! he doesnt even have a picture of it, and even the guy who scanned the paper of the track list was considered fake.

edit: and even if he doest take a picture, its still not proof, photoshop. same thing again as the scan.

Get your shit straight, it wasnt considered a fake. It was considered unverified. Just like the Andy King review originally was. What we have in this thread is not information concerning the new album. It is someone noticing something in the town where videos are produced. When we get verification on that email, it will be allowed. Protecting names and radio stations? Sorry.

[dick Cheney]

I met maynard in San Francisco at amoeba records. He was looking in the devo section with his wife. I went up to him and shook his hand and said he was great. He said thanks and kind of blew me off. He was not all that friendly. I am still none the less obsessed.

[Ocelot199]

lol, dick.


so, its tomorrow... where is this picture?

[mike tyson]

perhaps he's in work. in cali-ali it's only 11AM

oh, in that case. what he saw is unverified as well until toolband or blair or some other reliable source confirms, "yes there are tool stickers on neon signs in california".

I believe this guy a little more than the past posters who said their uncles, and boyfriends, and roommates have seen people talking to someone who was talking about the new album maybe being released in May. And if this guys bullshitting, so what? It's not like there's any MASSIVE news he's lying about, we all know the video is currently being made, this guys just seen some signs for where the studio is.

I'm with you on that one.

Actually, you just suck. Period.

I was joking. I know my German sucks. I'm decent at speaking it, but spelling is hard... plus I haven't had the opprotunity to speak/learn it in 2 years or so. So its getting kind of rusty.

Oh yeah, go fuck yourself.

Why are these post production signs up? Do they want people to go there or are they just to let people know that the project is in the post production phase? And by post production they just mean editing right?

[dracomordag]

It's probably just to let people know where shit is going down so they dont barge all up in there like no ones business, n'um sayin?


and yes, post production means editing, effects, mastering (or whatever the video equivalent is), etc.

[Cucumber_11]

So it's filmed then? That was quick...

I hope it won't be a cheap "because we need it now" kind of video. (Like Alien Ant Farms - Movies original video)

Usually, at least with movie sets, the signs are used to direct the crew or anyone else involved with the film to the location.

[Ertai]

Usually, at least with movie sets, the signs are used to direct the crew or anyone else involved with the film to the location.
cause you have to remember celebrities and movie stars are normally dumb w/o any common sense, so the film studios are trying to make it as easy as possible.

[reverend resistor]

awkward.

[ifrigginghatethis]

sorry if someone already answered this, but why do they post those signs up on the highway? is it so people working on the videos know where to go? and if that's the case, it seems like a peculiar way to give out directions...

[RDescartes]

Nice, someone to corroborate my story. Whereabouts in Pasadena do you live? I think that studio they goto for the video shit is one street south of Green, next to some internet cafe'. I think.


I live right across the street on the east side of Caltech. Near Hill street.

That makes sense about the studio. Next to the Firehouse is in fact another company. You can't see it from the street (Dayton). . . but behind the Firehouse Recording Studios gates is a large courtyard. Off to the side is another studio. Which I guess does video post/VFX stuff.

I have a feeling they shot stuff there too (or were working on early VFX shots). . . because I first saw a sign back in early September. Just after the Rose Bowl. It was posted at the Fairs Oaks off ramp from the 134. I remember because I was sitting in Rose Bowl traffic staring at it. I also saw one at the Hill St. exit.

[mike tyson]

Thanks for taking the pics, but this guy is right. That sign does not have anything to do with the Tool music video. It looks like that is a company that makes short films. See the website above.

I knew that sign wasn't for the band Tool at first glance. How could you have thought that Tool would have written their name in that font? Anyway, it seems that the nonsensical "No Christianity" tatoo is a testament to your intelligence. Sorry, I had to point that out.

I actually used to own a Tool workshirt w/ that logo on it, but I don't remember where I got it. I can't remember if it was a one-off bootleg I picked up in one of the local t-shirt shops or if I got it from Tool's old mail-order service.

Sweet - I'm in the Valley, not too far at all... might have to see if I can find something - what freeway you near? 134?

Meh, nevermind, I just read the third page there.

I can't believe you took it!
The evidence is clear.
haha

[SpiralOutKeepGoing]

I'm not too familiar with southern California geography but it looks like the wrong tool shot a short film recently in Santa Monica.

Looks like you stole their sign...

now thats comedy. Today's comedians can learn from this guy.

[varg]

I've met David Draiman before. Is that cool?

No, that's horrible.

[Ocelot199]

No, that's horrible.
Hey, I like Disturbed. Sort of. They're sort of fun to listen to... Everyone I know around here seems to at least sort of like them, so its kind of cool...

Whatever.

[TenSpeed]

Yeah, I like them too. They were also the first not completely shitty band I got into back in 5th grade.

i dont see that happening.

[LoKi]

bad luck dude.


oh, and you spelt colour wrong.

[Wretched]

Shouldn't this have been in the Video's section, the one dedicated to the new video, which I just noticed a few moments ago.

Well no one really checks there except me like once a month.

[Lamb & Martyr^]

We don't spell color with a U in the U.S.

[Perseensilmä]

That aenima eye tattoo gave me a great idea, don't get a tattoo, ever!

Agreed 100%


though, that tattoo COULD have been cool, if lenticular shirts existed....

[Cucumber_11]

We don't spell color with a U in the U.S.
Because its too confusing to have a silent letter in the word? I don't get it, why does America hate u?

[LoKi]

yeah, you guys spelt it wrong.

[Goldfoot]

yeah, you guys spelt it wrong.

You just used spelt in the wrong context so your opinion doesn't matter.

[dracomordag]

and I'm sure that back when it took around a month to travel between the US and Britain, Americans took the time to coordinate their spellings exactly with those of England's.

They could have just gone to Canada - Canadians still know how to spell :P

That's a dumb assumption. Haha, get it?

[dracomordag]

too bad Canada was relatively unpopulated...

[SomethingSpecial]

Wow, this is the first time I've logged on since I posted the pics, and what's this about a disturbed tattoo? no christianity tattoo (It's Bad Religion by the way). Regardless... I know for a fact that these signs led to where Tool does post production on their videos. 5 years ago, before Lateralus, they led to the same spot that these signs led to. I followed them, they don't lead to any TOol of North America whatevers. Same place. So, let's just leave it a mystery.... It's possibly (though would seem wierd (wierd = Toolish)) that Tool used this logo for principles of anonymity, no? Well, either way, like I said before, my friend grabbed one 5 years ago, I grabbed this one, so now its officially a tradition (for me). And what makes my tattoos a reason not to get tattoos? lame comment.

[Fulcanelli]

It's possibly (though would seem wierd (wierd = Toolish)) that Tool used this logo for principles of anonymity, no?

Think about that question for a second. OK... now, if they wanted to be anonymous don't you think that they would have used a different name instead of "Tool" with an alternate font?

[dracomordag]

especially choosing a logo that a movie company has


something special = self pwnt

[THE JESUS]

you lose becuase you have a mac, not becuase you stole another companys signs

[Spaceman Spiff]

There were enough people there to repel American attacks, and burn the White House...

[kabir]

Yeah it sucked. My friend Lenny was working that day (this is at The Equator Cafe in old town pasadena, and the studio they do their production at (I think) is called Fire something). He was rubbing it in my face for a month. Another cool thing happened to me there. Right before APC put out Mer De Noms, I had received an advance copy of it and was playing it at the cafe. And this dude comes up to me and starts talking about the cd. When I ask him his name, he tells me Kabir. And I'm like, not the Kabir, and he's like... yeah. I had him show me his liscence. It was him, or at least someone else named Kabir

hey nice! i remember that - i feel like that was YEARS ago, but i totally remember that. i have been there once since then, but i live in silverlake so i don't get out that way too often.

ha i even remember getting a hook up on some coffee! =)

[kabir]

David Blaine was there too?

no that's not david blaine. i did a show with him a few years ago. that was nuts.

[dracomordag]

There were enough people there to repel American attacks, and burn the White House...

what history books did you read? America hasn't fought Canada since the French and Indian war, but then you guys werent even british. In 1812, the Brits sent over troops alongside the Canadian ones, and they burnt the White House

[TenSpeed]

While this is something interesting, wasn't it proven false with the other TOOL company?

[khemystri]

(though would seem wierd (wierd = Toolish))

....so.... wierd = Toolish = weird. :-)

Just bustin' balls.....

[Andorion]

Why don't we move this to the Lies forum? This wasn't our Tool, we verified that a couple pages ago.

[thevirusunknown]

Ok SomethingSpecial is still cool in my book... of cool people.

[Fap]

and remember, ignorance is strength, bitch.

Oh. Is ignorance anything like doing curls and sit-ups?

[Wretched]

No but it is like masturbation.

+1

[Goldfoot]

Oops.

[dracomordag]

opps

[SomethingSpecial]

Fuck, big deal, I was wrong. It was a cool experience for me. (also, santa monica is no where near Pasadena) And plus I kept you all busy for a few days. I'm going to go take my sign outside to burn it. Thanks for participating in one big pwn; even if it was I that pwned myself. Oh, and I'm a little upset that this thread ended up in the LIES section, it wasn't a lie, it was a, er, mistake?

Hey Kabir, I sent you a myspace friend request, did you get it? www.myspace.com/michael_long

[5th Eye]

Don't burn it, hang it up in your house.

[Myriad: Days To Come]

Who claimed this as a lie? I think before it goes into the lies folder... there should be an explanation

[amitface]

Did you not read the thread? Or two threads above you?

[hanger25934]

Who claimed this as a lie? I think before it goes into the lies folder... there should be an explanation

the explanation is that it was not the band tool but rather a production company of some sorts. try reading the thread.
