Tool
USF Sundome, Tampa, FL
Thursday, April 5, 2007

[flipmojo]

This show looks like a tasty, little gem. I think I will be at this one and Orando.

[SpiralReflection]

Really surprised Tool isn't playing Ford Amp instead. Sundome seemed kind of trashy when I saw Slipknot there in 2005.

[czar]

I attend USF and really think that it's great that Tool is coming and I will definitely go see them, but I am not very impressed with the acoustics in the SunDome.

[Cycloz]

Florida in early April. Maynard hates smoke, why not play outside somewhere? Not familiar with the venues in Florida but have they no ampitheaters down there?

Anyways, I'll still be attending this show or the Coral Gables show. Possibly both, anyone know which is the better venue in case I only can hit one... the SunDome or the Bank United Center?

[pornstarchampion]

Yeah Florida is loaded with Ampitheaters, Ford in Tampa, Metro Park in Jax, Sound Advice or whatever it is now in West Palm, couple other big ones. Ohwell.

Definitely want tickets to this show.

When do they go on sale?

[toolgirly]

The 24th

Still Sound Advice. Used to be Office Depot Center IIRC.

[DarlingDepp]

Does anyone know when the rescheduled tickets go on sale?

[czar]

So, 10AM this morning, I requested tickets on ticketmaster as soon as they came up... "waited in line" and then it said "sorry, tickets are no longer available". This was at 10:05am. Ridiculous... now they are all over the internet/ebay for outrageous prices... fannnntastic.

[toolgirly]

Wow, really? I got mine no prob. Tampa and Sunrise. Hmmmmmm. Whatta drag. I truly hope you get tickets. I want nobody that really wants to see this show to miss it. Oh and we are driving in from Texas.
Good Luck!

[czar]

I just checked ticketmaster for the hell of it and some level one seating was available so I bought them. At this point I don't care if it's not floor.

[tigerlily1972]

My husband tried to get us tickets the day they want on sale, just one hour after they started selling he went on and we were only getting third balcony!

Anyone have tickets they are willing to sell in Sections K1, L1, E1 or D1?

The very first time we saw TOOL, they were at Masquerades in Ybor City, very small venue, it rocked! We've seen them one other time and can't wait to see them again,

Can anyone help us out?

Thanks,
Renee

Czar. I keep getting upper levels!

[czar]

Czar. I keep getting upper levels!

Yeah, when I told a couple of my friends that I got level one, they tried and kept getting level three. I dunno ?? heh

If you are that desperate to see them, you could always go to another ticket site and pay $100+ a ticket for general admission or some close seats.

[toolgirly]

[mightyweasel]

ok i got 4 floor tickets to tampa and 2 floor tickets for orlando i am looking for a trade only. i would like to trade these tickets for lower level seats if possiable?

[WiredIllusion]

Anybody happen to know of any semi-decent yet cheap hotels in the area? Just looking for a place to crash at for the night before leaving for work in the morning.

Im staying at the Days Inn on Fletcher Ave which is just a tad north of USF. Something like one street up. pretty close. the room was about $64 i think. Not sure about the quality but its just a bed to sleep in. Theres other hotels around too. The Wingate is right on Fowler Ave for about $110 a night. Check it out. Just look on any hotel website and search tampa hotels, and then narrow it down to the USF/Busch Gardens area and map it out.

[ShamanicTom]

Hi all, I live in Az, but I happen to be In florida until June. I just found out that my boys are playing in Tampa and Orlando while I'm here, and naturally I want to go! Does anyone have any extra tickets or no where I could find some. I found a few online outlets that are selling tickets, but I'm not sure if they are legit or not.

[WiredIllusion]

Yeah so over the weekend I got a helluva sickness and won't be able to attend the Tampa show (still doing Orlando, even if I blow my eardrums). I am selling a floor ticket for Tampa at or below face value. Only catch is, I am in Orlando (Metrowest to be exact), and can't really travel much to pass off the ticket (the being sick part). If someone in Orlando is interested in meeting me somewhere, I can do that pretty much anytime tomorrow. Shoot me an email at [email protected] or IM me on AIM (NeoDrifter3).

[lamentelibre]

Anyone know if Kinski is still the opening band? I read in a few reviews of previous shows that it was their last for the tour. If theyre done, anyone know who is opening tonight? Just curious. Break a leg to guys and look forward to seeing you tonight. Off on a 4 hour drive to Tampa. See you there!!

[fearxile]

Kinksi is not opening, its some new opening band. Im kind of sad, cause my friend said Kinksi was actually a pretty good opening band compared to the others that have toured with tool. The new opening band is MELT BANANA heres their myspace link

http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=133866589

Looks like some experimental band from Japan, I must say they are horrid.

[fearxile]

OH BTW ITS FUCKING TOOL DAY!! 1 RULE FOR TODAY, DON'T WEAR A FUCKING TOOL SHIRT TO THE CONCERT! K THX.

[sam959]

Melt Banana actually sounds pretty cool. All you kiddies expecting some Ozzfest douche band might be a little upset.

[czar]

I work for USF, so I'm just sitting here all day until I can head over to the SunDome. Can't fucking wait.

[Maz46&2]

How about a subtle change for this show. Something...different? Hmmm.

[Hodge]

my friend called and they just played third eye

You're kidding right? wow. Kinski sounded like Tool compared to this.

[K7_Leetha]

You're kidding right? wow. Kinski sounded like Tool compared to this.

LOL, I've actually heard of Melt Banana before, and they DO NOT belong at a Tool show. I wonder what the crowd response will be if they are in fact the opener.

Edit: Yup according to MB's website they are indeed opening for TOOL for most of June! Oh my!

[hushypushy]

Yet another reason why I am ashamed to call myself a Tool fan.

[czar]

What a fucking fantastic show, minus the opening band.

My God, I could die a happy man right now.

Soooo fucking amazing.

No setlist????

[Hodge]

can u post a review bro?
http://toolnavy.com/showthread.php?t=81907

[czar]

No setlist????

From my recollection:
Jambi
Stinkfist (Extended)
46 & 2
The Pot
Schism (Extended)
Lost Keys
Rosetta Stoned
-- INTERMISSION --
Wings for Marie (Pt. 1)
10,000 Days (Wings Pt. 2)
Intension
Right In Two
Lateralus (Extended)
Vicarious

And I want to post a review I have ready, but its still locked.

[Hodge]

the pot has returned eh?

[czar]

the pot has returned eh?

Indeed, and with full force I may add.

That setlist is probably a little mixed up, but all the songs are right.

[TOOLEYE]

Damn...sounds like a great show! I thought the pot was gone for good. Did he nail the scream (you must have been out your miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiind) at the end?

[czar]

Yeah... it sounded like he was using the chipmunk voice effect through the whole thing, but he still nailed it, it just sounded a little funny.

The most memorable parts of the whole night were:

1) OVERWHELMED AS ONE WOULD BE WHEN PLACED IN MY POSITION....
2) The ending of Lateralus..

Like I will state in my review, the crowd was un-friggin-believable. Such an energy, everyone was in unison, singing everything, completely into it without much moshing etc...

[TOOLEYE]

Good deal. Looks like you have three more shows in the FLA, you goin to any of em?

[czar]

Unfortunately, no. :(

Ever chance I get to see them I miss, and there was no way I was missing it this time. I work for USF now, so it's not like its far away.

[3poundsoflove]

Intension just for a little intro... or integral?

[czar]

IIRC, Intension was a little intro...

[TOOLEYE]

Rosetta Stoned.....absolutely amazing live isn't it. Definately the highlight of my shows. Gotta suck to have them so close yet so far away :(

[czar]

It was indeed amazing. The whole show was. The lasers/lights were intense. I loved every moment of it.

[K7_Leetha]

Yeah Rosetta Stoned is so under-rated. Maynard's vocals are too cool in that song. Holee, Fuckin, Sheeaat.

[czar]

I was waiting for that part, but he said it fast like the rest of the lyrics, he didnt single it out and yell each word like HOLY. FUCKING. SHIT!....it was just like... holyfuckingshit... but, nevertheless, it was still awesome.

[ShamanicTom]

I was at the show as well. I saw them a month ago in Tucson, so I was very happy to hear them do The Pot and Right in Two. They played The Pot in Phx in September, but someone threw a waterbottle and hit Maynard on the head, and he stormed off the stage and didn't finish singing the song.

I wrote a review for this show and I noticed my setlist differs from yours slightly. Didn't they play Schism before The Pot tonight? And I thought Stinkfist was the regular version, but I could be wrong about that.

I wasn't sure about Stinkfist, but my friend said it was "the extended" one. And yes, I admit my order is probably wrong. I was too into it to try to remember the order perfectly.

BTW where did you sit? I was M1 Row 5 Seat 4.... and what a perfect view.

[fearxile]

Jambi
Stinkfist
46+2
The Pot!!!!!
Schism(ext)
Lost Keys/Rosetta Stoned
Right In Two
Wings for Marie/10k Days
Lateralus(ext)
Vicarious

Correct order, Stinkfist was not extended sadly enough. My opinion of the opening band changed. Gotta give them respect, they are unique. I was doing some reading about them when I got home from after the show, seems like they toured with Fantomas, which is one of Mike Pattons projects, and hes a good friend of the band, so Im sure thats how they got signed. They must of crapped their pants when they got the call.

[TOOLEYE]

you guys need to check this band out, you can definately tell who they are influenced by.....TOOL
