Fair enough, I interpreted your post as though the band said that. I agree the argument that Tool never change setlists or play old stuff is invalid. I think most us agree that it'd be nice if they changed more than just one song a night in the setlist.

Barely 90 minutes isn't really accurate - the show I went to was just under 2 hours long and that was one song short of a few of the other shows.

I agree that $500 is more than I'd be willing to pay for VIP, but I've spoken to many who attended the event and said it was excellent. I doubt any of them feel like they've been exploited.
