Sorry, I lost that one in the hurricane of stuff gong on this past week.
I've seen no indication that the dates between Lollapalooza and Pomona will get filled with anything.
I'm 99% sure we have seen all the dates for this tour.
The lighting and video systems are being trucked directly from Chicago back to LA where they will sit until the Pomona show.
Could you let the guys in the band know that if any of them want to crash at my place before the Pomona show they can. The show's only like a 10 minute from my place.
Plus we could stay up late the night before playing Chutes and Ladders or Simpsons Halloween Monopoly if they wanted. That or play with Lego's.
I guess I'm in the minority, but I prefer to know the setlists they are playing before going to the show. They still rotate a little bit, so you don't always know exactly what they are going to do.
I was at Radio City in 2003 when they busted out Commando, and couldn't fully enjoy it because I didn't know what the hell it was until after the fact.
Agreed but I have come to that conclusion only recently. I was lucky enough to see them cover Demon Cleaner and I am a pretty big Kyuss fan but hadn't picked up Sky Valley yet.
as I noted back on the orig thread (page 47,000 I believe) I'm pulling for Revolve...
"Yeah Tool is fucking amazing. But there’s a big chunk of their fan base that think they’ve become thought provoking geniuses just from listening to them."
Seriously. Sagebrush and coyotes. One two lane road in. It'll suck worse than going to the Journal Pavillion.
Dude, I thought FOR SURE I had made a wrong turn.....although it is one of the smaller venues of the tour, I went to the box office and they were really cool (gave me an original hand bill!) she said they would be selling 6500 tickets but it's not sold out. :(

lmao.
I know this is a joke... but kmon! At least pick one of the shows that isn't right beside most of their homes!
yeah now that I think about it, I think i'll check out what the setlists are before I see them. Did the same last tour, and the second concert I went to was the first one they played Flood. So I knew right off that was special to that concert. If I didnt know the previous setlists I woulda figured they had played that one all along.

But just think of it this way, If you don't look at any of the setlists, every song would be special! You can always go back and look at the other setlists after your show. Its gonna a massive test of will power, but I'm going in unknowing to the Dallas show.
Still haven't made up my mind about checking the setlists prior. Two schools of thought.
But I do have to say I suddenly stood up and did a gigue around the house tonight! Grabbed the wife and kissed her (and thanked her for not having a problem with me splitting town for a concert). Then I went and pumped some Opiate and Lateralus and embibed in a gin and tonic or two.
Sorry, I should have clarified... I meant to ask if the lighting/video will progress substantially DURING this tour (due to limited rehearsing beforehand), my mistake. I know full well that there will be several new things to look forward to in comparison to 2007, no doubt about that. You have never let us down before!
I think it will be mutating the entire time. It always has on previous tours, so I don't think that will change just because it's short. If anything, I expect it to evolve more this time since we didn't have much pre-production time. The 'seat of the pants' aspect might make it even more exciting, in particular on the songs that weren't played in 2006-2007, if they make the cut.

I'll look for you in Phx at the sound board junior. Buy ya a beer if yer up for it. Thanks again.
As far as cover songs go, I agree. I don't want to know the tool songs being played and in about what order, but if there is a cover song being played, I would like to know it before the show.
I'll send ya a PM in 2 weeks or so and you could let me know what cover, if any, that they are playing. Sound good?
Zinger >> No problem. If you want to PM me, I'd be happy to let you know what cover (if any) they are playing.
I like seeing the setlists ahead of time though. Just builds excitement for me as I'm waiting for them to get to my show.

Last time I saw them was the first time I read the setlist before hand. I think it helped make it more enjoyable for me. Not wondering what was next and just enjoying what was being played at that time. I will be looking before I go.
I'm going to the last show in Pomona. I know myself and that curiosity will get the better of me, so I'm not even holding out hope that I can refrain from peeping the list.
"Yeah Tool is fucking amazing. But there’s a big chunk of their fan base that think they’ve become thought provoking geniuses just from listening to them."
I can't wait to hear the new and clever ways he'll tell us all how much he hates us. And how all the fanboys will roar in agreement. That always amuses me.
well just for the hell of it, and b/c i am real slow at work, to speculate on the "old" songs that may or not make the cut as junior has been speaking of (not played in 2006 or 2007).....
album song last played odds?
opiate sweat 1998 low
opiate hush 1998 low

scale of real low, low, maybe to possible
I'd say they need a long song to fill wings, which either the grudge, 3rd eye or DRT fills. I don't expect DRT again though... other than that, some older ones that could resurface : cold & ugly, part of me, eulogy, H, undertow or 4 degrees. the rest pretty much seem to be retired, but i could very well be wrong (and in some cases, would like to be wrong).
thoughts? 72 hours until we find out (maybe, they might save a few for later in the tour, but it is only 13 dates)

I guess we'll find out soon enough, but do they typically play a lot longer set in a stand-alone setting compared to a festival , only a little, or the same? I guess it depends on the slot given, but just wondering in general, thanks.
Cool list. I'd move jimmy, prison s, ticks and d/r/t to real low and add in intension as a maybe.
i would agree with jimmy real low, they hardly have ever played it, same with ticks. prison also, but they did play it ALOT in 2002, which surprised me. d/r/t i only thought *maaaybe* due to its length (wings replacement), but im not holding my breath.

As luck would have it, yes. 'Iron Man 2' was done with them slightly early, so one of our trucks swung by Van Nuys on the way out of town to pick them up from the manufacturer.

I think I would pay extra if they would please NOT play Schism this tour. Love the band, and there is certainly nothing wrong with that tune. But enuff already. Also, you gotta think they'll do Right In Two- at least I hope they do!

Agreed about "Schism". Should swap that out with "Parabol/a". Hell, it would take about the same time since they always do that extended intro to "Schism" so time shouldn't be an issue.

that extended part in Schism is amazing. wish the production version had it but i guess that makes it special to live concerts. i agree id rather not hear schism though but if they do it better be extended.
aghhhhh Im already fucking pumped just to see the setlist and read reviews on their first concert sunday. I decided its better to know the previous setlists going into a concert.
interesting discussion here. that was a nice read. Does anyone know when the concert reviews thread will be unlocked? I would think they would have it on a timer to unlock the day of the show. *shrugs* with technology now im sure there will be a lot of people ready to put down their experiences.

I think only marcus knows the answer to that but on the last tour they usually opened it right around the time that the show started. In fact, soonyboy, that reminds me of the Pearl shows in April of 2007 when you gave us play by plays of those shows as they happened in real time. Good stuff. Ah the memories.
