So true.

In my honest opinion, I think Tool is totally a 'live band.' When I was listening to some of the songs, all I could think was: "THIS is how the song is supposed to sound. This is how the guys intended the songs to sound." Tool is incredible, but CD's don't do these guys justice. I think they're so much better live.

One particular instance is Jambi. I saw it live at the Hummingbird Center, and it was alright, not what I expected at all. But then I saw it at the Molson, and I must say, this song is truely amazing. In my opinion, it sounded SO much better live than it does on the CD. Especailly the bass. The bass was so distinct at the Molson. And the atmosphere that the song created for me was so much better than what it does when I listen to the recorded version.
