Tickets on sale Jan. 27 @ 10am through Ticketmaster (http://www.ticketmaster.com/artist/720703).

[parables in the world]

is it by themselves because that would be great and exciting since its my first tool show experience.

[sonnyboy11]

Shiat I grew up going to Tingley- what a cavern that place is!! Still, I saw Rush there twice, Van Halen four times, Kiss, Styx (my first concert- Grand Illusion), the Cars, Black Sabbath w/ Dio (I think that was at Tingley). There are more I'm sure.

I always will remember praying that Queen would come there but they never did.

Anyway, Tool anywhere is a good time!

[parables in the world]

yea it is a cave. but tool will put that to use

[sonnyboy11]

How is it there in Albuquerque anyway? I grew up in Sandia Heights. Just off Tramway. My house was there before there was much else. I know it has been built up quite a bit since I left. I went to Eldorado High School. I left when I was 16 and have only been back once for 1 day. Kind of miss Santa Fe a bit tho!

Most of the concerts I went to were by myself. It always seemed hard to get anyone there interested in much of anything. That said, Tool is going to bring the place down!

[so0l]

wtf is going on here?

yesterday everything was fine and dandy, today....no tool shows in albuquerque listed at ticketmaster...i check the tingley site on TM, and it had tool listed...click the link, "this event no longer exists in the ticketmaster database"...refresh, and its no longer listed...but they still have "tool" listed under the seating chart lists

wtf




EDIT: meh..apparently it is TM updating their system. the guy said they could be either inputing information for a presale or discount tickets....

[greenie67]

So does anyone know about this pre-sale that they are having from 10am-10pm today? Is it just for the tool army "fans?"

i havent heard anything official, but ive read on the boards that TA members within an hours drive got the password..





so if you didnt, and thats true, then i guess you can sit on the phone with ticketmaster like me on saturday morning and hope all the good seats arent gone ;)

no problem

it sounds like the presale tickets are very limited, so it might not be such a big deal. you should, hopefully, still be able to get decent seats come saturday....if youre fast! lol

[The Rak]

Remember how bad the sound was when they played Tingley w/Meshuggah? Best part of that show was seeing the performance. ( Best sound I've heard at Tingley: Monsters, Inc. on Ice) I saw Tool in Phoenix September 06 the night Maynard got hit with the bottle. Hope I get tix tomorrow. If not, there's always Vegas in March the night before a friend's wedding.

Shit..we were at the same concerts.

I'm hoping to get through here in around an hour. I'm biting my fingernails

[greenie67]

got 'em, 4 tix GA Floor... see ya there!

[2and46]

got 'em, 4 tix GA Floor... see ya there!

Word. Can't wait. GA/floor

[so0l]

i got GA floor but searched again...we're in section R row 3.....anyone thats been there tell me if those are decent or not?

its a side view of the stage, which i had when i saw them in daytona and i loved it....so im expecting them to be pretty good.

searched for box seating AT 10 am and got box 40 =/

[Ace1810]

Just got my tickets and now im really excited...I saw then here 3 years ago and it has defiantely been long enough...

by the way does anyone know if there is anyone else coming with tool?

[teleincision]

Got them! sadly, i got bleachers.. not so bad though, they are 1st row seats..

[waltz46n2]

I got mine this morning too. Pretty excited, haven't been since Aenima at Red Rocks.

[parables in the world]

I got mine at Section U row 12 Decent seats but it don't matter as long as i'm there. I had to buy 4 tickets. But yea i think it'd be better for Seats. you get to see the stage show.

[2and46]

I haven't been to a concert since APC(no flames please) at Red rocks years ago. Are these printable tickets for real? Do I have to bring this entire piece of fucking paper with the ticket printed on it? Honest question.

[greenie67]

Yeah, just take the whole piece of paper, it should have some kind of bar code on it so they can scan it. I never used a printed ticket myself, but I have always seen other people use them.

[The Rak]

Here's what I found on opening acts: basically nothing confirmed even after searching toolband, toolnavy and tdn.

Isis opened when I saw them in September (get the new CD, folks), Mastodon opened recently in Europe (Oct-Dec 06), but they are headlining this winter/spring in the Eastern US with no dates scheduled here.

News and interview link from metrodistortion.com -- http://metrodistortion.blogspot.com/search/label/Tool

"Rumor also has it that MJK will be picking the supporting band this time around. In his recent A.V. Club interview, he mentioned the likes of Autolux, Peaches, or the Yeah Yeah Yeahs as bands he would like to have as openers."

For the truly lazy, here's the AV Club interview link:

Anyone going to Gojira? That shit is cool, too.

[2and46]

Thanks. I appreciate the info.

[dclxvi-qas]

YEA!!!

just got my tickets, won the auction for GA Floor.

damn i am so stoked man, i missed the internet sale last weekend and all they had left were crappy ass seats, but now im walkin around with a hardon since 1230 this afternoon at work.


saw them at the Cricket back in Sept but had horrendous seats then, but this time its the floor. Someone in the crowd at the Cricket screwed it up for everyone. hope we get a better show here.


No announcements of opening acts yet?

What about Opeth? haha yea right... but that would be cool.





Anyone going to Gojira?


i got my Lamb of God/Trivium/Machinehead/Gojira tickets last week.


cant wait for that one, but TOOL was what i really wanted, i would have given away those Sunshine Theater tickets for TOOL, but alas... i scored.

[dclxvi-qas]

Yeah, just take the whole piece of paper, it should have some kind of bar code on it so they can scan it. I never used a printed ticket myself, but I have always seen other people use them.



printed tickets is the way to go...

[dclxvi-qas]

LOL! I am at section U row 1!

Maybe i will see you there... maybe not.. =)

[The Rak]

Hey, did you all see on the El Paso show discussion that the show there was cancelled and that it may be moved to the PanAm Center at NMSU?

[mourningxair]

True dat. Don't know if you've gotten your answer yet but after a lot of stress and panic from all my friends and I, we were able to pretty much confirm that. Tickets are supposed to go on sale on the 17th [even though it's not on ticketmaster]. I really wanted to see them in my hometown [even though I'm going to the Albuquerque show, too] but...what can you do. A Tool show is a Tool show, I guess.

PEACE

[dclxvi-qas]

45 more days!!!!

Thanks for the tip. It seemed easier at the time but i have never used them, so i was a little leery about it; but not as worried about the post office actually getting th tickets to me on time. I guess it doesn't matter if they are in color or b&w??
Anyway am definetly looking forward to this show. last time i was in the pit at Red Rocks and was sore for a couple of days. I am liking the thought of being able to sit back, relax, and enjoy the view and the show. As long as the sound is good i don't care. See ya at the show all!

the tickets come to you in whatever email address you specify. it comes as a pdf file which you can download to your computer. then at whatever time you want to print them, you can print them on a color or blk/wht printer. the document itself is in color, just the barcode is in blk/wht.


they use the scanner at the gate to scan the barcode and thats it. then to get to your designated seat/area, they just look at the ticket and direct you to that seat.

i think the charge for that was 2.50 a ticket and you have your ticket in a matter of minutes after purchase.

click on link below to see how it looks most times.

[dclxvi-qas]

Dang ticketmaster had GA/FLOOR tickets available yesterday afternoon for $49. had a friend of mine purchase some for himself, dont know how long they lasted.

now they only have Sec Z, Row 18 available.

emailed another friend about it, dont know if he got lucky.

[teleincision]

now they only have Sec Z, Row 18 available.

Wow. Personally, I wouldnt buy any that far away.

[toolwithapenis]

anyone know if they have an open stage
or does it have walls on the side of it?
cause i got section v row 1 seat 12-14

Here's a link to a mess of photos from their Dec 10, 2006 concert in Paris that shows the arena set. If you're sitting off to the side, you prob won't see Maynard lurking at the rear of the stage. and will miss all the animations on the multiple video screen. I'm in Sec. Z just off the floor, looking head on to the stage (and not too far from the beer stand, as I recall). Ticketmaster tried to sell me stage L tickets looking at the stage from a 90 degree angle, but I held out for something better.

that sucks. who the hell knows how many days and counting...

what happens to Will Call tickets anyways?

anyone know?

[AtomHeartMother]

I'm so fucking bummed! Now I have nothing to live for...except for the rescheduled tour date! But I was going to be home from college for spring break right when they were playing in ABQ and now I'll probably be back East when they reschedule. Shit!

Does anyone know how long it takes for a torn bicep to heal?

[dclxvi-qas]

a post in one of the other threads stated that it could take 6-9 months for it to heal properly.

Marc Bernier at the Alabama Sports Medicine and Orthopaedic Center (ASMOC), replies:

"From the description you have given, it would appear that you have suffered a distal biceps tendon tear. This injury is most commonly caused by a vigorous eccentric contraction (lengthens whilst contracting) of the biceps muscle, similar to the mechanism you have described.

"The symptoms you have reported are textbook for this injury:

a popping felt at the elbow;
localized swelling and bruising at the area;
and a significant loss of strength in elbow flexion and supination.
"The more severe the injury, the easier it is to diagnose. When the tendon is completely ruptured, the biceps muscle will retract towards the shoulder, resulting in a ball-like appearance ½ - ¾ of the way up the arm. The tendon can be partially torn, which appears to be the case in your situation .



"The surgical decision depends on the severity of the injury and the activity level of the patient. In most cases, complete ruptures of the tendon require surgical correction, which involves reattaching the tendon to its insertion site.

"The decision regarding partial tears is a little more involved. The activity level of the patient (low demand vs. high demand) will be one of the primary determining factors. Low demand patients (minimal labor-intensive activities) will typically do well with conservative treatment (rehabilitation). High demand patients will usually require surgery to allow them to return to labor-intensive activities or athletic competition.

"This surgery involves reattaching the torn portion of the tendon. If most of the tendon is torn and is functionally deficient, the surgeon may detach the remaining intact fibers, and perform a complete surgical correction.

"The recovery after reattachment of a complete rupture is a very gradual process, and the speed at which the rehabilitation can be progressed is based on the healing process. Very basic exercises for ROM (Range of Movement) are performed initially for the first 6-8 weeks, followed by light strengthening exercises. These are started with 1 pound weights and gradually increased as strength and symptoms allow. Light weight training can be performed (bench press, shoulder press) at the 3 - 3 ½ month post-op mark. Generally speaking, strength becomes normalized anywhere between the 6-9 month post-op period, which includes a return to full unrestricted function.

"The recovery after a partial tear can be significantly less, but is heavily dependent upon the size of the tear and how much had to be reattached. The physician will typically dictate the post-op progression based on the surgical findings."

[2and46]

I bet they just cancel the tour outright if it's going to be 6-9 months. I'm so fucking bummed man.

i feel you man...

We saw Lamb Of God/Trivium the other night at the Sunshine and all thruout the show, all i could think of was seeing TOOL next month. I couldnt really get into the show, even after knockin a few skinheads on their asses and making them cry like pussies.

"TOOL next month" kept crossing my mind all night long.


Damn.

damn, my bro called me up early this morning to rub it in. I hung up on him...


Any idea when they'll release the new dates?

But im fully certain she would be hotter than whats there.

Ruby red lips...

Maybe Danny ought to conjure up the Torn Bicep Demon and have him mend his torn appendage. Full recovery in no time.

Ill be in line at Tingley on March 23rd.

[toolwithapenis]

i tore the ligament in my arm during football this year
and shit
i couldn't drum for about 2 months
so
idk about April
but if it happened
that would be sick

[dclxvi-qas]

i called up TM the other day and asked them to send my Auction Will Call tickets to me, i opted to use Ticketfast and i got my tickets about 5 minutes in the email after i paid for them. i think the fee was $2.50 to use Ticketfast.

The other option was snail mail. that one might have been free... not sure.


this is the one i used below. automated until the option to speak with someone.

ticketmaster
All areas 505-883-7800

ticketmaster express
866-448-7849

[dclxvi-qas]

Who's all gonna be in line March 23rd at Tingley?

What time you think people will start showing up?

Any good bars to hang out at after the show?


21 Days left!!!

unless the show gets rescheduled...

Wonder when the announcement is going to be made...

All i ask is that the rescheduled show is on a Friday... or Saturday.

[2and46]

Ticketmaster and Tingley are still advertising the Tool show, and maintain it has not been cancelled. What's going on? Does anyone has any solid evidence that the shows have been cancelled?

[dclxvi-qas]

Evidently Ticketbastard is selling Sec G Row 17 tonight.

Might indicate that the show is still on.

dunno, lets hope.

havent heard or read that it was cancelled.

[toolwithapenis]

all of this
is it reschedules or not stuff is getting to me
they just need to come out and say it

[dclxvi-qas]

all of this
is it reschedules or not stuff is getting to me

Same here, bugging the hell outta me.

drinking more,
martial strife,
unkempt household,
goldfish dying of starvation,
kid talking back,
loss production at work,
loss of appetite,
did i mention drinking more?

haha

i wish they would just tell us. is it on or not?

They better have a kick ass setlist when they do come back, if they reschedule, hell even if they dont reschedule and play on the 23rd, they better have a kick ass 2-2.5 hour long set.

better add some Pushit, Third eye, Reflection, The Patient, H. and a few more to the list of what theyre playing now.


And a few bottles of complimentary Nagual Del Sensei for each ticketholder.

sounds fair.

[dclxvi-qas]

found this on the Tool site

06 March, 2007 (11:07am)

UPDATE ABOUT AN UPDATE

I'm hoping to have an update about the tour sometime soon, but for the time being all I can do is wait until the rescheduled dates are confirmed by the band's management. For now, the good news is that Danny's right bicep is healing well, the guys are looking forward to performing live as soon as possible, and I also had hotel reservations for the Vegas shows. Also, as I've mentioned before, the time frame for Danny's recovery from this particular injury is expected to be much quicker than a lot of you have suggested in e-mails and on the message board (even you 'doctors', physical therapists. and actors that play doctors). So be patient... look for leaks on other sites, etc., and know that we'll get the correct information posted here as SOON as we're provided with it.


Albs might still be on the 23rd?

too much to ask for?

Probably called Miyagi right after the injury, came over, did his thang and went back to pruning his bonsai and sipping warm sake.

or

probably fukin with our heads, needed to take a break or something and faked an injury.

Not really- if they truly are ready to go by the end of March then that's an amazing recovery on Danny's part. I still think there is a good chance they postpone more dates though.

[toolwithapenis]

i figured the show would be in april anyway
i mean there is no way on earth you can recover from a torn bicep in like what
2 months
but anyway
at least there not canceling the show

[toolwithapenis]

SOME RESCHEDULED SHOWS

"Here are SOME rescheduled shows - shows that had already gone on-sale prior to Danny's injury. People can exchange their original ticket(s) for the new show. I'll add these to the tour section after Kat's birthday party (which is currently on-going), but you can read them here in the meantime.
April 30 - Reno @ Reno Event Center
May 2 - San Diego @ Cox Arena
May 5 - Las Cruces @ Pan American Center
May 6 - Tucson @ Convention Center Arena
May 8 - Albuquerque @ Tingley Coliseum
May 15 - Southaven @ DeSoto Center
May 19 - Oklahoma City @ Ford Center
May 21 - San Antonio @ AT&T Center
May 22 - Corpus Christi @ American Bank Center
May 24 - Baton Rouge @ River Center"



That is from Toolband.com, now it is a Tuesday show.

[mourningxair]

What is this exchanging tickets business?
I would assume that the tickets bought for the original show would still be honored for the May 8th one, right? Isn't that how they did it with the SA show?

[I'm just relieved we didn't have to wait 6-8 months...]


PEACE

[dclxvi-qas]

dammit, 2 month wait... AGAIN?

better have a brand spankin new setlist.

i know its in support of the latest and greatest album, but c'mon, mix it up a bit. Its the same thing thats been played since the TOUR started.

Maybe with Dannys injury, they will be playing some , newer, slower stuff. A little Jimmy, H., Pushit, No Quarter? i can only wish

Who the hell knows...

they may as well play

Only consolation is the new NIN DVD, pretty nice. The leaked songs are pretty good also, been humming Me, I'm Not all day yesterday and today.

another consolation is that NIN will probably be touring around the same timeframe as Tool now. should just get NIN as the opening act. haha yea right...?

Well enough of this...


2 frickin MONTHS!!!

Just spoke with a pleasant chick from ticketmaster and she said the original tickets are fine. No need to exchange.

Anyway at least they didn't cancel outright. So what's the deal anyway was danny hurt on the job or was he pulling some crazy stunts in Australia, maybe some good old fashioned kangaroo wrestling?

Yea i read that. pretty cool that Randy Blythe wants to do a show on the rez sometime. Too bad we dont have a nice venue to offer them. i dont foresee the wannabe "cow" people letting us tear up the rodeo arena. And besides... ITS A FRICKIN RODEO ARENA!!! El Morro just got renovated also.

I laugh everytime a big name comes out to the Dean C Jackson Arena. They probably expect a huge ass arena, instead they get a broken down, POS, dirt rodeo arena. thats pretty damn pathetic.

the new 6000 seater Den In Chinle would be perfect for concerts. I doubt they would let that many people out on the new court tho. Hey they are having a 3 day powwow there this weekend. dont know much else about it, but it should be a big event.

I went to the Lamb of God show and i thought it was cool. I got a good spot up on the balcony, on the edge of the railing and enjoyed much of the show. I think Lamb of God needs to mix up their songs a bit, sounds a little too much like the album. improvise a little.

i think it was on the Killadelphia DVD they had that argument pertaining to changing stuff around alittle.


When Randy gave props to the navajos, lots of people booed. i found that funny and amusing. Always navajo haters out there... it dont bother me tho.

Crazy natives ran the pit. i still have someones goatee, haha.

Damn, i cant wait for may 8th, woulda been 2 weeks now... but hey, at least they ARE playing soon. I just wish they would play other stuff than what they have been playing so far... hell... since the tour started.

wouldnt it be kick ass if they played Pushit, The Patient, Eulogy, Bottom, Jimmy, Demon Cleaner, No Quarter, Kasmir, You Lied, D/R/T, and maybe Flood along with H.?

haha, wishful thinking.

HELL anything other than what they played, or didnt want to play(maynard not singing after the introduction with the water bottle), when i saw them at the Cricket in Sept.

[licks and teeches]

anyone going to the cruces show as well?

The rescheduled show is on a tuesday. This just fucking blows.

Yeah, I was planning a big blowout for the Friday Mar 23 show with my friend from Durango, who was talking her high school age daughters for a birthday and early graduation event and another old friend and his teens in Alb that was our NIN group last year.

Last time Tool were in Albuquerque was a weeknight also. Came in from Santa for the show. I was ironing my shirt at 3 a.m. for a meeting the next day after "decompressing", shall we say, at the place I was crashing. Brutal next day at work. Not sure yet how I'll handle Wednesday May 9, but I've gone in the next day after Green Day, Ozzfest, I think, and possibly NIN. Some people will have it worse. I'm pretty sure dclxvi-qus has to come in from Window Rock AZ, and that's 3.5 or 4 hr from Albq.

So who the hell is opening at the resked show in May?

Yeah...I'm coming in from Farmington, and will have to be a t work the next day. I'll probably leave early on the 8th though.

I haven't any idea whose opening. I'm kind of hoping they just do an "evening of" show with no opening act.

[dclxvi-qas]

Some people will have it worse. I'm pretty sure dclxvi-qas has to come in from Window Rock AZ, and that's 3.5 or 4 hr from Albq.


yah... about 3 hours actually... hate that drive, especially from gallup to sky city. BORING.

damn, that would be cool if they pulled a 2+ hour shindig with no opening act.

tickets still on sale on Ticketmaster, sec C & X Row 17 or something like that.

got a new phone the other day, the choices for ringtones were horrible... so i installed my own TOOL midi files on there and now it plays 46&2, Eulogy and a few others.

pretty cool... its probably been done and all and common knowledge but hey, i love having my phone crank out TOOL tunes when it rings.

heres the link to the site where i got the files.

http://toolshed.down.net/audio/midi/

they even have NIN midis also at

http://nothing.nin.net/tech.html

just thought id share that with you all.


does anyone know who the opening act is for this leg of the tour?

[waltz46n2]

Hey thanks for the tip on the tones. My phone is probably too cheap to download them, and i doubt i can figure how to do it anyway, but they do sound pretty cool. Maybe when i get a better phone they will come in handy.

if your phone has an IR port and you have a laptop with an IR port, its pretty easy. no need for a $40+ cable.


man i am stoked for the show!

i wish they would announce the supporting act soon. get my moneys worth because i feel like theyre gonna play the same variation of what they have been playing since the TOUR STARTED. although they DID change the order up at the Sept show at the Cricket Pavilion.


aside from $8 beers, $50 teeshirts - a given. Id like to hear a little something different. i guess we shall find out on the Reno show on April 30th.

gonna have to smuggle in a disposable camera this time. the last time, my wife talked me out of it right before the show and so if anyone found a disposable camera wrapped in duct tape outside the gates at the Cricket Pavilion... that was mine. i had taken some pics on there also... might even have an idea of what i look like.


55 DAYS AND COUNTING!!!

[waltz46n2]

A supporting act would be ok. but i would also be allright with a good long solo set.
I'll give the phone thing a try.

[licks and teeches]

the last time they played albq in 2002 was amazing ,maybe the'll play third eye again(fingers crossed)

[The Rak]

I want my third eye squeegeed.

[dclxvi-qas]

should just play Third Eye all night long...

after the 8th time playing it, they can sit on the riser and soak it in, then finish off by playing Demon Cleaner, Kasmir and Lateralus.

id like to see that.

i missed the 2002 show because i got out of work late and was too damn tired to drive the 3 hours from WR Az to Albs. I hear it was a good show tho...

[The Rak]

The sound on the floor over by the mixing board sucked big time, however. I refer to it has the time I SAW Tool in Albuquerque. We had a much better mix at the Cricket.

would be better if i could get box seats right off the stage, but then again, my wife and i are tall so the view shouldnt be bad.

[dclxvi-qas]

the sound in tingley sucks anyway,how is the journal pavillion? I haven't been to a show there yet.

sound at the Journal is ok, probably a hell of a lot better than at the rodeo arena.

Ive been to the Journal about 6 times now and havent had a complain with the sound really. only time i has a small complaint was when the cold wind didnt let up at or when the sunlight during the sunset was distracting.

Other than that, its basically another Cricket Pavilion sans shaded covering.

The probably should have scheduled the show at the Journal instead of the tin box Tingley. Only good thing about Tingley is that there arent seats on the entire floor, anyone can get up to the front.

[toolwithapenis]

anybody have any idea whos opening
or is it just gonna be tool all night
either way i cant complain

Britney Spears, on the post rehab get back tour. I'd complain about that.

Hey does anyone know anything about the Colorado Springs show like the onsale date? I tried at TicketCrapster but they don't have it listed, and i couldn't find a thread on the tour section. Anyway thinking about going there instead of ALB in which case i may have a couple of tickets to sell.

[dclxvi-qas]

48 DAYS TO GO!!!

damn, it would have been this Friday...

hope they use this extra time to work out some programming for a new setlist.

if the article is to be believed, it sounds like the last 4 songs are the staple from here on out... (wings 1+2 = one song)

Wings For Marie
10,000 Days
Lateralus
Vicarious
Ænema

but we can still hope they can change up the rest of the songs with fresh stuff.

BTW, Rachel Maddow on air america was talking today about a new study that says smart kids like metal.


http://www.telegraph.co.uk/connected/main.jhtml?xml=/connected/2007/03/21/nmetal21.xml
Heavy metal 'a comfort for the bright child'

By Nic Fleming, Science Correspondent
Last Updated: 12:01am GMT 21/03/2007


Intelligent teenagers often listen to heavy metal music to cope with the pressures associated with being talented, according to research.

The results of a study of more than 1,000 of the brightest five per cent of young people will come as relief to parents whose offspring, usually long-haired, are devotees of Iron Maiden, AC/DC and their musical descendants.

Researchers found that, far from being a sign of delinquency and poor academic ability, many adolescent "metalheads" are extremely bright and often use the music to help them deal with the stresses and strains of being gifted social outsiders.
advertisement

Stuart Cadwallader, a psychologist at the University of Warwick, will present the findings at the British Psychological Society conference in York today.
.....

The heavy metal fans in the study had lower self-esteem and more difficulties in family relationships and friendships.

Mr Cadwallader then held an online discussion involving 19 members of the academy, 17 of whom were heavy metal fans. They spoke of listening to bands including System of a Down, Slipknot, Tool, Dragon Force, Forward Russia and In Flames when they were in a bad mood and using it to work off frustrations and anger.

One student said: "It helps me with stress. It's the general thrashiness of it. You can't really jump your anger into the floor and listen to your music at the same time with other types of music."

Mr Cadwallader added: "Perhaps gifted people experience more pressure than their peers and use the music to purge this negativity."

uhhhhh... sorry. i thought i put the link on here...

hold up ill retrieve it.

http://livedesignonline.com/concerts/tool_time/

heres the article.

good read, jargon heavy, but gives a little insight to the stage/tour prep that is needed to pull off a show i guess.

sounds to me they put too much money into delivering a set and almost non-deviating performance that they DO have to perform the same set every night.

hence the comment about the last four songs being the mainstay of the set.

I certainly do hope, considering dannys injury, they change it up a little for this leg of the tour, maybe with songs such as Jimmy, H., Pushit, Third Eye, etc, etc... but most of these songs are more complex drumming wise than the ones they have been playing.

we just might get lucky.

i hope so.

Awesome article - because there is a CLUE about THE OPENING ACT!!!!!

"Since Wilson was on tour with Hilary Duff for most of the rehearsal period, most of the laser elements were programmed in just two days."

tres outre.

[dclxvi-qas]

Hilary Duff!!!

wow, 2 great shows in one night...

gonna definitely have to check out the Hilary Duff afterparty.

man im seriously thinkin about trading my Alb tix for the Las Cruces show on the Sat (may 5th) before the (may 8th) Alb show.

really hate to have to drive back the TUESDAY night after the Albs show. Id rather make it a killer weekend affair with the Cinco De Mayo festivities also. Not that its an intergral celebration or anything in my native culture, i just had my hopes high on a friday night concert that was supposed to take place tonight.

So we might as well take a mini-vacation down south, catch a killer show and then continue brewing it at the mex celebration.

man i would have been standing in line right about now... probably munching a carne asada buritto from that place near Audio Express (i think) and sipping on a cold Foe-tee outside Tingley.

haha

Now i have to wait 46 more days to hang on the block...

gonna have to run to SAGE (milepost 12) after work. go home and jam on TOOL in the living room.

damn that sucks, but at least its something.

hell that might be the way to go, go to both shows, use grandmas surgery money for a better cause and get Hilary to do that thing that i like...

[toolwithapenis]

dude i got an idea
lets just screw tool
and make it an 100% Hilary Duff concert
featuring all the other fakes in the music industry like Ashlee Simpson
now
that would be a sick concert

damn, 40 Days and 40 nights...

time to begin the TOOL fast. Will go home tonight and crank up the iriver the rest of the night and in the morning, no more TOOL til May 8th.

Tell me that isnt a blatant reference to whom the opening act will be for this tour...

Sisters Of Mercy.

I don't see any Tool enthusiasts on skateboards in all their "Hot Topic" finery heading down Zarzamora Street on midnight forays to the "Dome of Light" in Olmos Basin (what is it, a golf course, now?) or to a certain "baobab" tree to get answers from the bulbous-eyed "Sisters of Mercy." I don't know about you, but I sure as hell don't want to see any more shows postponed. Especially not SAN AnTonio. Not with all that e-mail and telegrams and posses in a state that even has the death penalty for statues.

http://www.toolband.com/index_frames.html

i know i have a few of their CDs somewhere... know a few songs... heard them alot at strip bars... ALOT.

Well, i suppose if its true, its alright... never thought id see Bauhaus in my lifetime but it happened ast summer with NIN. So i never thought id see Sisters Of Mercy live...

http://www.the-sisters-of-mercy.com/showcase/mp3/albumsandsingles/mp3index128.htm


im not sure if this is what kinda opener i would want tho... maybe if i was still into goth stuff like Christian Death or Shadow Project or some other goth band. im not sure if Sisters Of Mercy would set the right mood and atmosphere for a TOOL show.

Vision Thing right into Stinkfist???

wouldnt work i think.

So im sure im just reading too much into what was written...

But i would love to see Kyuss open up for TOOL as someone else had posted in another thread. I could see that...

Didnt someone say that Maynard would choose The Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs? better off with Mars Volta if that happens. Only YYY song i can stand to bear is "I'm Rich" or something to that effect.

i dont know...

alls i know is that there are 34 more days and i stoppped listening to TOOL back on the 29th of March.

Its hard man.



chainsaws and stools?

wow, hardcore.

haha

[toolwithapenis]

dude
that sisters of mercy band is kinda bad
i really don't like them
definitely will not get me in the mood for tool

[waltz46n2]

Sisters of Mercy and Goth is starting to ring a bell. Did they do a cover of Cinnamon Girl or is that another strip-bar Goth band. Anyway never was into Goth too much or Freaks with Chainsaws for that matter.

WHAT DOES THE SET-LIST ENTAIL? ANY CLUES?

[dclxvi-qas]

WHAT DOES THE SET-LIST ENTAIL? ANY CLUES?

Stinkfist
Swamp Song Maybe... maybe not
Forty Six & 2
Jambi
Schism
Right In Two or The Pot or not
Sober or Opiate or not
Wings For Marie
10,000 Days
Lateralus
Vicarious
Ænema

more than likely this variation above.

the last 5 songs are always played in that order, except in Phx 2006 and somewhere else i cant recall.

the last several places they played in Japan, they played Right In Two.

dont know if that means anything, but i would like to hear something other than what they have been playing. with dannys injury, i would think they would play other stuff than what they have been playing since the tour began.

28 DAYS TO GO!!!

havent listened to a TOOL song for nearly 2 weeks. did hear some stupid remix of The Pot on 104.7 Alb NM. they played the song to the beat of some crappy ass rap or reggae song on some show called Scratch & Sniff this past Sat night.

That was plain disgusting and uncalled for. I would suggest that they stick to ruining old Winger or Stryper songs instead

That wasnt TOOL so that didnt count as a violation towards my self imposed 40 days and 40 nights of TOOLlessness.

[greenie67]

WHAT DOES THE SET-LIST ENTAIL? ANY CLUES?

Who cares what they play, just go to the concert with that mindset and you won't be disappointed. They will not play what you want anyway, and since this is still the 10000 Days Tour, I am sure we will see the same setlist as it was last year, maybe except for a couple of variations.

[greenie67]

That wasnt TOOL so that didnt count as a violation towards my self imposed 40 days and 40 nights of TOOLlessness.

Man you are hardcore! I am not sure I could have listened to that remix, kinda like the (Shit)Stained version of Sober. Good luck with the Toollessness!

[licks and teeches]

what about Lost Keys/Rosetta stoned?

[angry load]

the pot w/ a reggae/rap beat? that is fucking gross. not too much of undertow- that is kind of a bummer. swampsong would go a long way. I know they don't deviate too much from previous 10k day set agendas, but with the time off maybe they'll mix it up some.
Did hear rosetta stoned was in the mix. is it really dropped?
How's the sound in tingley? Heard the joint is a rodeo barn, but i;m just an albuquerque tourist coming in for the show.
The lasers are still coming out during wings, correct? Just trying to open my 3rd eye at its widest and most appropriate time.

really. i dont have an influence on what the band chooses to play? goddamnit, i don't know if my ego will recover from the news. i forgot they were artists that played from their hearts and with a point they were trying to express.... Er... don't lose any sleep i will enjoy the show. I'm ready, less than a month away! I'm feeling it.

[dclxvi-qas]

Yep. Rodeo barn... i guess it sounds good as long as its loud. saw some acts in there and the sound was seriously lacking but they made up for it by blasting the hell outta our ears.

yea... some stupid sounding Pot mix. they did have a cool one with Johnny Cash and some rap beat.

27 more days... i can not fking wait.

Who is all going to Deftones on Sat?

We'll probably get a good idea of the set list after the Vegas show. I am definetly counting on Rosetta Stoned...man that would be sweet.

I'm with ya- when in doubt, just turn it up as loud as possible volume can compensate and carry a band such as tool. Negative on the Deftones- i'd be there if i could. 26 days- i'm ready.

Quincy the medical investigator? Are you implying that Tool are dead? I'm sure there's an allusion to that in all the NIN Year Zero stuff.

[waltz46n2]

Video Girl told me she couldn't buy the ticket until April 16, which is Monday.

Video Girl told me she couldn't buy the ticket until April 16, which is Monday.

Apparently she could'nt get out of work to go to the show, I'll try your other friend, and if not you may see me on the sidewalk at tingley trying to get a few bucks for the beer stand. So what does a $60 ticket translate into beer maybe 2 or so, can't afford to get too wasted on the beer stand beer.

By the way do they sell any good beer there or just bud and coors...a good microbrew would be all right.

[The Rak]

I would assume that the State Fair people sell cheap whiz at a steep markup. Ask for a microbrew and they'll give you half a plastic cup. I was at Stone Temple Pilots there a few years ago, ordered a double gin and tonic and had it blown out of my hands by moshers. The moshing community therefore owes me a drink.

Not sure what the deal is on drinking in the parking lots at Tingley The crowd in Phoenix was insane on the tailgating front.

Not sure what the deal is on drinking in the parking lots at Tingley The crowd in Phoenix was insane on the tailgating front.

not sure how it is now, but a few years ago, dont remember what concert it was, but they had a hell of a tailgate party at Tingleys. Then another concert i attended there, security told everyone to disperse after a macing threat.

i was at the phx show and there were alot of rowdy tailgaters, especially on the west side of the facility. the east side not so much even though it is the back end of the lawn and quite possibly the best place to hear the soundcheck.

the new NIN is out today, probably go and pick it up later today or tomorrow.


21 DAYS TO GO!!!

[The Rak]

the new NIN is out today, probably go and pick it up later today or tomorrow.
[/B]

It's $9.98 at Best Buy. I've been streaming it for the past several days.

[dclxvi-qas]

yea ive been streaming it since last week when it was posted on The Spiral.

It sounds ok, part 2 of Year Zero is supposed to be out next year sometime, probably even a movie or something to that effect.

i heard the intro to Parabola this morning on my way to work... almost forgot to shut it off and actually was turning up the volume when i caught myself. 19 more days and ill get my TOOL fix, but for now, im suffering, but not anywhere near giving in.

anyone have RAVE Channel 9470 (i think) on Dishnetwork HD?

i love that channel, concerts and music stuff all the time... in HD.

weeks back, i was perusing the concert reviews for the Australian leg of the tour and came across someone saying that there were people at the BDO that were saying that Muse is better than TOOL.

Well, ive never heard anything from Muse so i couldnt put in my 2 cents at that time. but last night while watching RAVE Ch 9470, "Later...with Jools Holland" i did see Muse do a few of their songs. They sounded alright, a bit poppish and almost like Coldplay, but definitely NOT better than TOOL.

If anything, The Rapture is better than Muse. i saw that Paris concert right before the Jool Holland show. That dude in The Rapture has a cool voice.

the guy that stated that Muse was better than TOOL was probably high off his mind or tripping from dehydration...

BUT I would like to hear some more of their stuff though. another band i thought was a bit good was Duke Special. they look like they would jam hard and whatnot but the songs they played were all piano driven, and thats not really what im in too. sorta reminded me of a toned down Andi Sexgang without all the electronic soundeffects, but good nonetheless in some weird way.

The bottomline... i love RAVE. If only TOOL would do a show on there.



19 MORE DAYS!!!

I CANNOT FRICKIN WAIT!!!

my self imposed 40 day TOOL fast ends with this desperate hunger being satiated on May 8th.

[dclxvi-qas]

2 weeks!!!!

Until . . . ?

[dclxvi-qas]

That one band that plays that one song on the radio comes to albs.

[The Rak]

Oh, those dudes. Yeah, I like those dudes. What are they called, Fuel or what the fuck, and there's that one bald dude whose all crazy or something. Yeah, those fuckers are right on but I'm kind of into country, myself.

[angry load]

If you could pick a song for tool to cover, what would it be? Think they'd dominate Zeppelins 'achilles last stand'. \ crush it dead to rites. Inside 2 weeks fellas. feelin it.

[waltz46n2]

I'd pick something real far out like Simon and garfunkel, maybe Woman in chains by tears for fears..

[diaji]

if anyone has an extra GA Floor ticket they would like to sell or trade for a ticket to the stands that would be stupendous. i was out of town for the day of the sale and my buddy got me a ticket but its in the stands and im really hoping to be on the floor this time around. i dont know the section/seat at the moment of my ticket for trade but should be able to find out in the next day or two. if you want to sell one id love to pay 63ish dollars seeing as how thats what they come out to with ticketmasters fees.

[angry load]

what did they open with tonite?

[diaji]

jambi

[angry load]

jambi

thats different. good jam to open with. my 2nd favorite on 10K. what up with the ticks and leeches heresay i saw on an earlier post. that's crap rite. MJK wouldn''t make to albuquerque if they do that song on a regular basis ( plus i'd kill myself out of jealousy if they did follow through and i missed it).

[diaji]

looks like the setlist is:

Jambi
Stinkfist
46&2
Schism
Rosetta Stoned
Sober
Wings
10,000 Days
Lateralus
Vicarious
Ænema

well it is what it is. still pumped up for the show

[waltz46n2]

Well seeing as i have not seen tool on this tour i am not complaining about the set list. Maybe i am the only poor tool fan sap that hasn't seen them 4 times this tour but living in nowhere land sorta prevents me from hearing about all the shows. and to be quite honest i am pretty lazy about checking the website until recently after missing the last 2 shows in Denver. anyway 9 days and counting....

"Push It" by Garbage. It would mock and piss off cranky old fans and confuse the shit out of everyone else.

[toolwithapenis]

oh good about a week till tool
FUCK YES!!!

[supersloth]

since this is the local thread i figured i'd thrown it in here, mods feel free to edit or remove if it's inappropriate, I have 2 GA floor tickets that i'm trying to get rid of for 60 apiece (cost), if you are interested or anyone you know is, pm or email joshua.rivera AT gmail DOT com

[diaji]

I have TWO tickets for the Albuquerque show (5/8/07).
Section S, row 15, seats 9 and 10.
Looking to trade for the same number of GA Floor tickets.

[dclxvi-qas]

6 Days!!!

this time next week ill be sore as hell and probably still hanging a bit.

so... who the hell is Kinski? tried to hear some of their stuff on the internet but wasnt all that.

you all read the reviews on the Reno show?

dang... hope we dont get a halfasses show like they did. I already went thru that in phx last Sept and i sure as hell dont want that to happen again.

i am gonna be royaly pissed if that happens. gonna have to get my native brothers out around the tour bus and burn it if Maynard brings or pulls a fit on us during the show.

Damn that dude seems so touchy lately, wonder if thats the fame getting to him? or he just pissed at ruining his voice making Puscifer songs during the break?

Well, we will find out in 6 days.

ill be the longhaired native guy in the black chevy truck sitting on the tailgate with my wife, sipping on an ice cold 40... haha probably not 40s, but ill be sipping on something. dont hesitate to come over and say hello and share a round and shoot the shit.

I dont bite... much.


would be nice to hear something other than the same SETLIST they have been playing since the tour started also.

i dont know why i even write that everytime i post something... maybe im just thinking that one of the members of Tool will read it and say to themselves... "thats right... we HAVE been playing the same stuff since the tour started last year... might be time for a change..."


haha, hows that for wishful thinking?

SEE YOU ALL THERE!!!!

6 DAYS!!!



Anyone have a spare GA ticket to sell? i wanna take my 4 yr old daughter to her first TOOL show. She has been singing "my TOOl song" (The Pot) nonstop since the album came out.

[email protected]

[angry load]

Sounds like reno was an absolute disaster. Maynard better not pull that bullshit on us. 6 more days... they better get their shit together.

[waltz46n2]

From what i heard it must be related to the freak jumping up on stage. Seriously though you have to shake that off and perform. that dude got thrown out, maybe it was worth it to him but the rest of the crowd shouldn't have to suffer for one poor sap.... 5 days and counting hope to see some of you at the show perhaps at one of the ridiculous beer stands.
so what time do the gates open for the tailgating??
I would imagine the doors to the show open around 6:30 or 7ish..

[K1DA]

Appearantly they killed it in SD last night so I wouldn't worry too much, unless one of you plans on rushing the stage.

[toolwithapenis]

dude
im totally gonna rush the stage
just to piss every body off
haha

[angry load]

thank god. reviews appeared all positive, but for the standard compliants. All in all, I'd more than settle for that set list. RIT!... that'd be crazy good.

[dclxvi-qas]

word is the SD second night crowd is getting Pushit as i type.

damn.


i feel like sobbing like a little bitch... because the anticipation on the 8th.

[angry load]

Pushit?! those lucky bastards. tool gaining momentum.... just like those golden state warriors.. B Dizzle was huge tonite (much better in dave chappelles tiger woods voice during the racial draft skit). I am ready. fuck the Mavericks. Ready to geek out in 4 days...

[waltz46n2]

Just try to hold on man..keep it together...just a few more days...

I'll keep an eye out for you. i have a new Ford 250 Super duty that i can't park worth crap so if you see a guy circling the parking lot 10 times looking for 5 spots together that's me...

[waltz46n2]

[QUOTE=angry load;1909485]Pushit?! those lucky bastards.

By the way how sweet would pushit be or maybe Eulogy something like that can't wait...

[dclxvi-qas]

i predict Third Eye for Albs on the 8th.

anyone else with me?

Third Eye and Right in Two on the same night.

my self imposed 40 days and 40 nights of TOOLlessness is about to end.

[The Rak]

Tuesday night? The Long Wait is almost over.

I'll be in Sec. Z, Row 1, the Red Man in a chongo rollin with some billigaanas. There has been some talk about a beer stand hookup with waltz46&2, who sold his extra ticket to one of my boys from The Promised Land. I'll be on the lookout for 666-quas (long haired Indian guy nursing a 40, chevy truck - THAT narrows it down). 2and46 is too busy posting to the girls' thread in socialize to get back to me, although we we both live and work in Santa Fe.

Stage rushers be warned that the guy who tossed the bottle at Maynard in Phoenix got the beat down by security or other fans. "I'm The Rak, and I endorse that message."

Tuesday, then Saturday night at Defrones. Fuck yeah.

Yeah, I had my hopes up. No Sober, either, but that didn't bother me all that much. Is Tingley bigger than the Pan Am (for those of you who were there). I forgot how small that place was.

Hopefully they'll change up the setlist at least a little bit for ABQ.
Now all I need is to figure out how I'm getting down there.

PEACE

[toolwithapenis]

shit

I think that they're gonna go off in albuquerque in front of a packed house,can't wait till Tuesday

[The Rak]

Two tickets available - Sec. Z, Row 1, just off the floor.

$50 each. The retail-printed tix (not fast tix) have the original date on them. Ticketmaster assures me they are still good for Tuesday night.

PM me with an email or phone number and we can do the deal. I'm in Santa Fe and will be headed to Albuquerque day of show.

[licks and teeches]

so it seems that they soundchecked with The Grudge yesterday,hmmm?
That would be quite explosive to see live again

[toolwithapenis]

hoy shiznat the grudge live

Drop over the rail away from the floor entrances when the lights go out, run into the crowd. You didn't hear it from me.

take that 2.5 hour drive into albs from the big rez jammin on Poison or anything else that sucks because TOOL will sound that much better when the concert starts.

probably wont try for the front row slots, but ill hold back a few rows from center.

See you all there, probably wont do the tailgate thing because im barely over a bout of food poisoning this this past sat night.

see you all there!!!!

40 days and 40 nights of TOOLlessness ends tonight!!!
