It's cool more people are into Tool, but you ever get the feeling it's the "cool thing" to see Tool? The music should be a unifier. I felt out of place not smoking and drinking 'til I stumble, mumble, and fumble. So from the corner of Liberty & Wyoming, high on my horse and waving my mighty finger, I wait... and see an underbelly.
Thoughts after:
Music and Tools performance were great. As for the crowd, lemmings. All lemmings. One person clap, all people clap. One person give a WOOOO during Wings(WTF?), everyone give a WOOOO. I think I'm getting old and pissy, but I want Tool to play an opera house. No pit, no drunken beligerant fuckers. Just a stage for the artists and their craft.
Also, I saw the fireworks. Kinda cool, kinda funny anyway. Maynard, you buck ridin' two-steppin' sumbitch. Ride on.
