But when he started playing the second half of Right in Two (after the tabla solo)...just trust me, you have NO idea how incredible Danny's drumming really is in that song until you see it live. It was the only live Tool piece I've EVER seen where I just literally did not know what to think. I was watching his hands, watching his sticks fly from piece to piece and cymbal to cymbal faster than my brain could even process, and he just didn't stop. I truly almost had a nervous breakdown, because it was at that point when I realized, compared to Danny Carey, I know absolutely nothing. He is that good.

I've seen them all too...Rosetta Stoned, Third Eye, Pushit, Prison Sex, etc. etc. But Right in Two was just in a different league as far as Danny's drumming. I've tried to describe it in this post, but it's hard to really get across. I hope they play it at every show.

Anyway, even though I've been playing for 17 years...after watching Danny play Right in Two, I went home that night feeling like the shittiest drummer in the world.

i will have to totally agree with you on this one.

i saw tool on their mini tour back in 2006, about a week or 2 after 10000 days came out. during that mini tour, they werent really playing right in two, but somehow, they broke it out for us. keep in mind, this venue was SO small, it only held about 1500 people. i was absolutely in awe of the drumming in that song. SO powerful.

they really need to bring it back for this summer tour 2010!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
