Long time lurker, like many before me. I may never post again, but needed to take this opportunity to say HOLY SHIT!

This is the 7th time I have seen TOOL and is by far the best. I know a lot of you will disagree, but just wait and hear me out.

We arrived around 4 in the afternoon to get in line to try to score a signed poster. After finding out that they were $100 we decided to just hang out behind the venue. Good move! I won't go into a shit load of detail, but needless to say me and the other 10 people back there had something to write home about after that night. Between 4 and 8 we all had the pleasure of meeting and talking with Adam/DC/Justin. After everyone else left (right around 7:40 or so), Maynard made a speedy entrance. Glad we stuck around.

After spending a little time chilling with Ashton from TB we headed inside to take our perch in the nosebleeds. We were escorted down to the pit right after TOOL went on (Thanks Mick!! You are still the shit. I hope Duluth went as well for you as Dallas. Anytime you are in Dallas, the offer still stands)

The show was amazing. Who cares about the set list and fuck the flubs. It was still an amazing experience, and I was not even tripping this time. TB rocked and Ashton's duel was phenomenal.

After the show, we went back to the tour bus area for some more chill time.

Thanks to TOOL for being cool enough to say hi to the fans. Thanks to Tweak Bird for making this an amazing concert experience that will not soon (if ever) be topped and thanks to Mick who made an impossible fucking dream possible.
