That 2006 Gorge show was great, and from what I remember it was towards the very start of the first 10,000 Days run. Only downside to that show was the visuals were pretty minimal. Like some light drape type of thing? Either way, you can't beat the Gorge as a setting for a Tool show.
Just saw them here in Boise last night. What a fucking show. I didnt think they could top the last leg of the 10,000 days arena visuals back in December 2007 when I saw them here, but the full LED backdrop/panels they are using now is so fucking amazing. Makes the stage so HUGE.
Highlights for me from last night...
- Opiate's extended middle "post rock" sounding section and the cathedral stained glass visuals
- Descending's visuals and the lead in to Jambi
- Danny's solo and visuals (staring into the sigillum was extremely hypnotic with Danny's playing)
- Justin rocking the fuck out
- Being reminded how much I love the video for Vicarious
- Stinkfist as an ender had so much energy (and the once again confetti bombs at the end)
