my first live tool experience was just as i knew it would be....

met up with some fellow toolarmy members before the show.....a med student opened his home to a virtual bunch of strangers.....it was really a cool mix of ppl there

we were about as far away from the stage as we could get (front row of the gallery)
yet we had a really trippy, cool vantage point of the stage.....very 'toolish'
hanging over the crowd looking down into danny's kit as he played

unfortunately we couldn't hear much of what maynard said between songs.....except 'chicago' and that he had a sore throat.......the rest was inaudible

and as expected the show itself was incredible
the very few mistakes i heard just made it feel more intimate
seeing them as the imperfect humans they are

'right in two' was a nice surprise....though they didn't play 'the pot' (maybe due to maynards throat/voice?)
i had to laff when all four came out on stage.....sat on maynards platform kicking their legs like little kids.....soaking it all in
