^Nice pics! Rare to get some daylight shots of them.

30 pics of Maynard swallowing the mic or crouching, 25 pics of Adam looking miserable, 4 pics of Justin farting, 2 of Danny sneezing.

Great pics.

Yes....great pics.....BUT did the journalist have to just upload every shot they took during the show.

Four pictures (one of each band member) would have been sufficient.

Hey all - for VIPers, can someone give me a good idea of what time they expected you to be at the venue? I have a flight arrive in Sacto at noon and am wondering if that gives me enough time to go to hotel and then over to venue.

$5 in Idaho!

$120 for the Gorge. That is about $40 less than when they first posted. I think the $5 Idaho tickets are because Idaho is fairly close to the Gorge in WA state so people in ID bought Gorge tickets before the Idaho show was announced. People travel from Idaho, Oregon and Montana to go to the Gorge.

Thanks for posting this! That review has me so excited for The Gorge on the 17th!!! Hoping we get The Pot or Eulogy!

Good point. If I was in the area, no way I wouldn't add on another show for the 5 bucks though. Lol

Anyone know what time tool has been hitting the stage?

Depends on the venue, if it's late curfew it's 900pm to 905pm early is 830p

i'm sorry, i just feel compelled to comment. herbert looks ridiculous in his riot gear. he's 53 years old ffs. can't imagine what he wears on halloween

Just bought my camping pass for The Gorge show. Gonna be care free and orbiting saturn as it comes down on WA. This will definitely be a one of a kind Tool show for me.

Great show in Chicago last night. MJK had a bit to say. Changed the lyrics of Aenema to "hopeless fucking hole we call USA". I can't make out what he changed "we both want to rape you" in Opiate to. A little help? They played The Pot again, which most definitely beats a phone-it-in Vicarious. This was my 21st show across 11 states, and even without new material the show was awesome. Allstate Arena was packed and all the damn posters sold out before I could buy one. They were pretty cool looking with the felt. To all of you with shows coming up: Enjoy!

5th time will be on 24th at Glen Helen. I've seen and heard nothing but greatness from them and never seen the pot live , I would prefer it over the phone it in vicarious too

Hey guys, how's it going? First time poster, long time listener. Was at the show in Chicago last night as well and couldn't agree more with this post...show was awesome! Couldn't make out the lyric change as well. Never even saw posters...still haven't seen what they look like. Anyone have a pic? Also, am looking to purchase one as well if anyone has one they're looking to sell. Thanks!

You should have a great time. This Gorge show will be my 3rd time seeing Tool at The Gorge and every time has been amazing! We will be camping at the Gorge also. I think we are leaving like 8 am on the 17th so we should be out there by 11 am.

Same here. To me that is a no brainer.

One of my best Tool memories is from the Gorge and the opening line of Jambi. Maynard singing "Here from the king's mountain view" and pointing up behind him in such a magical place was perfect.

welcome to the site! i will sell you my poster for $43,866. That includes the toolnavy discount. pm for deets bro

ok ok, $42,696

lol they got stiffed a song tonight

IMPORTANT: Does maymay ever do any of the grudge scream anymore? Or is that long gone?

Mixed emotions about the Saint Paul show. My 9tb time seeing them, and best I've heard Tool sound in awhile, but after anticipation of whether it would be 'Eulogy,' 'Vicarious,' or 'The Pot,' we got nothing... They went right from DC's drum solo into 'Sweat.' Kind of bummed, however it did solve my anxiety about which song we'd hear, it was resolved by not hearing any of them. And seriously, best I've seen them, MJK's voice was crystal clear and not too toned down, and the rest of the guys all were flawless.

Hello fellow Tool fans!

I got a signed drum skin from the Toronto show (May 31st, 2017) and I just wanted to know if anyone knew if it was played during a concert? It is dated May 27 which is a date they did tour. It does look like it was played, just wondering if it was during a concert or was it a jam session?

I asked the guy when I bought it at the show and he said he didn't know.

Thanks,

Long gone.

VRY.

Figured so, but I had the faintest of hopes that it had made some form of return.

your alma mater

but seriously guys, is tool still playing the extended version of SCHISM live? What a time to be a tool fan...

^your avatar is one of the best I have ever seen, lol

I play schism every time before I go to bed and think of jag.

Jism (Extended)

There's absolutely no way to know, but they're not going to go through multiple sets of heads in one night. Whatever was on the drums for soundcheck are what will be on the kit for the show.

Sur, the live version is better than ol boring 36&2, i'll give them that...

For those tool fans waiting for tix to san jose, show plenty of good lower bowl tix are
available right now on the Ticketmaster website. not floor seats but pretty good seats regardless
and i know some scalpers were charging $50 and up over face value for some of these seats.
so if you want to go hear and see Schism for the 30th time nows the time to shop
ps i still like Schism not afraid to admit that but i would prefer eulogy

oh its sunday 1:30pm here in Richmond California as i write this

and i know some scalpers were charging $50 and up over face value for some of these seats.
....
They've been going for < 50% on resale sites for weeks. PM me if you want a pair of tix for $60.

It's 8:43pm here as I reply to this.

damn i love when its 8:43pm

So for anyone who was at the detroit or chicago show(s); any suspicions that the visuals being shown on the screens during the pot were the unreleased music video?

Perhaps junior can confirm or deny, assuming an NDA isn't involved.
