as sonnyboy11 so importantly pointed out............ A serious thanks needs to be said to ALL the people involved with putting on the show. These shows are no simple production and certainly dont just involve 4 guys walking on stage and showing us how well they play together. It takes quite a bit of people to properly put on a show like this and things can and DO so easily go wrong in live concerts. These shows are AMAZING as I just saw 4 of them in 8 days and wish I could have seen more. So thank you to the band - and the whole crew that worked to make these shows what we experienced.
I have been to a TON of concerts in my years of all types and sizes and levels of production - and theres a reason when I finally saw Tool in early 2007 for the first time, I said 2 things to myself.
1. Why the FUCK haven't I been making sure I catch them since I became a fan when Undertow came out?!?!
2. I will do everything in my power to make sure I see them when they come around - possibly more than once.

Thanks to all who were involved in putting on those shows. They were just spectacular.

Does anyone know the names of the songs played in the background before Tool came on Sunday night? I really like the instrumental one: heavy percussion, some sort of cowbell, Afro-Cuban beat. Anyone?

Wow i finally made it home to Dallas.Was a hell of a drive, but so fuckingg worth itttt. My 3rd time to see them on this tour and it blew me away even more. Seeing Intention live was too sickk!! Third Eye was done even better than the first two times i had seen it live. Intolerance killed itt! Cause NO ONE IS INNOCENT!! ( The build up to that was too Sick) I have never seen Maynard so into a show (Love seeing him chugging wine the entire time and sharing it with Dalek), but i guess that is what i get when i come see them in LA! The build up of Lateralus always kills it. That song just never disappoints me! Adam's part in EBA was beautiful! It was a hell of a trip to LA and i will definitely be back. It is one thing to see them in the South, but this was the best show i have ever seen!!. Amazing visuals and lasers..i was definitely expecting Justin to start out 46&2, when i saw him tuning up his bass, But of course Tool surprises me again with THE POT!!. INTENSION was the best thing of the night, i just wish people around me could have appreciated it more, rather than some drunk guy yelling at me telling me that he wished they played "rosetta stoned". People need to appreciate the beauty that Tool brings. Why hear rosetta stoned, when we heard "INTOLERANCE, 3rd eye, EBA, THE PATIENT..etc..." He should have seen them on the 10,000 days tour. O well all in all it was a badass show and my buddy ran face to face with Alex Grey and actually made eye contact with him but was in such shock that he didn't even say anything loll! Great time. Thanks LA for badass show,

Just an incredible last 2 shows to end a great run. I'm always and i guess i should be more specific in case someone's reading this. I ENJOYED BOTH SHOWS FROM BEGINNING TO END! It was just amazing and moving for me and was glad to had been there for these 2 nights.

"Third Eye" - WOW! I can't get enough...

"Jambi" - Still a great live rock song as is "Stinkfist", etc... You know what i mean

I had the chance to witness "Intension" live at Red Rocks the second night and was kinda bummed when they didn't play it on sunday night. As soon as i heard it start to play on monday i just froze after an OMG moment. Then to get the chance to hear "The Patient" once again... Damn!

"Lateralus" is and will always be my favorite song.

"The Pot" < Holy Jebus!

Great sets on both nights and once again i can't wait for the next run. I had some great experiences throughout these shows and was able to hang out with old friends and make some new ones. Hope everyone had a fantastic time! Time to create something positive in the meantime while the next phase is upon us.

Thank you to everyone involved in making these shows a memorable experience and look forward to the next tour and album.

See you soon,

Hey guys, I just finish uploading my pictures and videos for the show, indeed the best Tool show I've ever seen! (I went to 3 shows this summer) Please take a look and feel free to leave comments.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/wei1062...7624557068268/

http://www.youtube.com/results?searc...okia+weilun106

These are all that I have, since blocking ppl's spot whole night is not polite. (Although I still want to say sorry to the couple behind me, maybe I'm indeed "Intolerance" to you guys :p) But hope these footage can make up something for you. Especially The Pot...totally unexpected!!! I was trying to sell the ticket since I already attend two shows of the tour with my friends, but after all no one willing to take over and I decided to gamble they will change setlist...even though right in two has been played 1st night of LA show. I was right!!! The Pot!!! and the amazingly beautiful FULL Intension!! (definitely not a filler to me, love it so much) and I'll never tired the opening of Third Eye and Intolerance...not to say the amazing EBA + The Patient.

Lateralus solo part is not as good as b2b drum solo at San Diego show which I also attend, but the venue got amazing acoustic! I'll probably rate Nokia Theatre the best 5000+ capacity veneue in LA.

Thanks all the staff and cool audience, we make it a wonderful experience!!! Thank you Tool!!! If the new material was the between-songs part in this tour...I'm really looking forward to it!

That was truly..just an amazing show. I was so happy i got to see third eye live and the timothy leary quote at the beginning was prett cool. (question authority) jambi was just kickass. i thought the entire theater was gonna blow from the outro. then stinkfist was just good fun with maynard throwing his leg around the whole damn time lol. Vicarious felt great. Intension was amazing. I could say so many good things about the show. I felt so free there. It allowed me to move like my bodys never let me move before. I was just happy :)

Both Nokia shows were amazing, nothing else can be said.. but night 2 was something extra special.

The Pot sounds much better tuned down, and The Patient & Third Eye were fucking relentless.

what does "5" after Stinkfist stand for? And the (c) copyright sign after The Pot?

I was told the "5" is probably an error. it is after jambi on all the others, meaning they played the ending 5 times instead of 2. and the (c) after the pot is for key of c.




amazing night. just had to soak it in for nearly a week. I can't say any night was better than the other, but i'd say almost perfection.

my 7th time seeing them on this tour. sat near the light/vid/laser area in the back row of the orch, and the sound was incredible. i could see everything clearly, with the exception of a guy putting his hands in the air every 3-5 seconds. random screaming during the intros/interludes and "intermission" but not too bad. sure, they had a couple flaws, mostly by adam, but not much. he's improved 3rd eye (great opener) since the beginning of the tour. maynard dressed as a cop, (switched to t-shirt and cowboy hat before lateralus) drinking wine the entire time, did the whole 'back the future, do the math, hard to follow, ah forget it' before intolerance. i still smile every time i see/hear people singing in the long version of stinkfist. everyone was pretty animated. the video to the pot was cool - mostly red, with "people" appearing to march, and the forehead/eye thing, as well as lots of firey smoke. that song was interesting. many people couldn't really tell that there was a difference, but when it started off, you could tell it was lower. and heavier. i'd like to hear it again. i don't think i'd heard it since '06 or '07? and i believe adam brought out a guitar from the "wayback" days for that song.
dalek was just an odd fit during lateralus. saw them do in at night 2 at red rocks, and my impressions were the same - just odd. ending with aenema in LA is perfect. very cohesive show.

on another note, i saw alex and allyson grey, lustmord, chet zar all appreciating the work they created and combined to make the show/tour what is was.

every single show is different, whether it be subtle or overt changes in songs, notes, interludes, flubs, ambiance, production, stage setup, audience, or the venue in general. i think because of this, i will always be a fan of the band. they are incredibly talented artists, and their abilities have not diminished. maynard can sing. he can hold some notes that are just beautiful. danny will always kick ass, as will adam and justin.

a huge thank you to everyone involved with the show and tour.

I thought I caught Indigo Children by Puscifer, other than that I was in my own head waiting in anticipation of the show.

Not sure if that has been getting done all along on this tour but it is different than the Salival version of same song.
I hear ya bro. Another was the bridge dealy in Intolerance. I hadn't heard that before, not even in the previous shows I was at. Not sure if it's been done before, but I totally lost touch of intolerance when that happened and thought they WERE playing a totally new tune. Then Maynard started coming back with the "lie, cheat and steal" and I realized it was probably still a work in progress.
