Re: 2006/10/02 - Wilkes-Barre, PA - Wachovia Arena

By the way, does anyone else know how good Danny Carey is??
I mean, are there any words to describe how good of a drummer he is?

I was on the floor in the middle about 30 rows back and I thought the sound was excellent. Maynards voice was clear mostly except for "Rosetta" where he was way too muffled. Justin's bass was just POUNDING! Danny's kick drums were so punchy. Adams guitar was clear and loud! Very good sound mix from where I was, but I know how the acoustics are in the damn Wachovia, and there are definitely places to sit that have a shitty sound.

Highlights:
Maynard was very animated and moving around a lot.
The middle jam in "Schism" was cool. That was new for me.
"Jambi" just rocks.
Justin totally getting into it at the end of "aenima"
The cool laser effect in "Lateralus" that made you feel like you were being crushed by a compactor on the floor.

Also, the setlist is made for those people who only see ONE show.
Not for us crazy fucks who go to six or seven every tour.
If that was your first or only TOOL show, you would have been happy.
