It should definitely be fine. You might have had something to worry about if you saw them in the 90's. MJK is pretty tame these days
EDIT: Damn where did all these other responses come from lol

Maybe I'm just old and cynical, but shows these days aren't shit to worry about. I recently went to a GA Lamb of God show with a friend of mine and his 13yo daughter and aside from some funny looks from security on our way in, there was nothing out of control.
Contrast that with when I was 22 and went to a FILTER (short bus tour) show and Richard Patrick got pissed off and started throwing water bottles at security (who said, fuck it and left). The place went absolutely crazy. I got the fuck out of the pit as quickly as possible. I swear it was mayhem in there.

You need to keep in mind that there will be plenty of weed floating around the air in the venue. Besides that ------ TAKE HER!

Maynard will not say anything worse than he does on Opiate or Undertow. If she's heard those songs and gets what those lyrics refer to the worst you'll have to deal with is a cringe-moment here or there where he mentions something sexual. He used to encourage the crowd to strip down and fuck or jerk off when they got home or something but lately he's been pretty calm. He does curse though. The rest of the band is statuesque and totally silent.

My 4 year old daughter loves Tool and she definitley doesn't understand the depth of their art. It is just music that sounds good to her. When she was 2 she would mimic the screaching sound in Stinkfist, it was pretty cool.

Slipknot would be questionable for a young kid. When I saw Slipknot a couple of years ago Clown and other members were very vulgar (the guy with the long nose was stroking the nose like it was a cock and clown was flipping off the crowd and making jerking off motions) and Corey Taylor said fuck alot.
I do have to agree with you that today's shows are milder. I remembver going to see Pantera and Phil throwing cups of beer in the crowd and telling everyone to smoke pot and eat acid. Pantera was great live!

As I was thinking about what Tool is going to play on this tour I thought about the first time I saw them live and found the set list for that show. Here is what Tool play the first time I saw them on 10/24/1996:
Stinkfist
46 and 2
Intolerance
Eulogy
Hooker with a Penis
Prison Sex
Jimmy
Undertow
Pushit
Sober
Opiate
Aenima
This was an Awesome show and I would love to see all those Aenima songs today.

Hello Tool fans got my charlotte tix today section 107 mezzanine . Also going to the Atlanta show section 105 . And jan 25 going to see the red hot chili peckers . I am very happy right now . Got a question . While getting my charlotte tix it spit out sec. 106 but it had a warning that said beside the stage . I gave them up with hesitation and searched again and got the section 107 without the warning . Did I screw up guys ? Has anyone ever sat beside the stage ?

I can see them playing Ticks on this tour. Triad without D/R would be kinda odd but cool. Jerk-Off... ehhh. I can't see them playing that.

Sure enough, Third Eye/The Patient/Intolerance were played that tour.
He may not be full of shit.

Very good point. Well, one can only hope. I'm hoping for Triad or Ticks. I wouldn't mind Jerk-Off but I'm kind of indifferent towards it. With all due respect though, can Maynard sing Ticks anymore?

He never really sang it live (without help) on the Lateralus tour anyway. Tons of vocal effects and seeing as he used a lot of distortion of Third Eye on the last tours, I don't see why he couldn't or wouldn't want to do the same with Ticks.

I get that Blair built himself a reputation of a world class bull shitter, but for the past few years, I think he's been more truthful than not. Especially when he talks directly about the band.

We will just have to wait and see of it's true or not. I honestly thought the whole winter tour thing that was hinted was gonna be nothing, but then it happened. I noticed in the newsletter before the official announcement (November I think) when it is hinted where they would play "a date or two in LA " was said. I don't know if that will happen, but hearing the Coachella rumor going around, could be referring to that, since it will be the same festival two weekends in a row this year. Yet also blair mentions something about Australia, so who knows.

He stopped coming here after the 2009 tour.
I talked to him last month and he said the negativity around the tour (setlists/bitching/etc) made it difficult to keep coming back, unfortunately.
He also toured and did lighting for both Puscifer and System of a Down last year.

I'm pretty sure those track hints are just jokes relating to the fact that he's drumming on her tits.

Dude, it won't. Just walk up to the sound area, and ask "which one o ya'll is junior?" and say hello. You might have a beer in hand for him if you're feeling generous. He's a good guy, but remember he is working.
I still think he lurks here, btw. Hopefully he'll post up. There are plenty of us who'd welcome his insight.

Junior is pretty friendly, I've chatted to him at a show before, though only briefly as he usually tends to be a little busy. He also normally has a setlist in the booth with him...

Currently listening to The Grudge transports me to the time and place of absorbing Lateralus for the first time. The unfamiliar landscapes to explore quickly awaken the senses and leave you craving more with every note. I so badly need to feel that again and wouldn't it be swell to hear something like that during this tour? New material!!!!!

Guys I am so excited !!!!! I get to see Tool twice in February on the 4th and the 8th . And I feel like I got really good seats 16 and 19 rows up from the floor and I get to see from both sides of the stage. The charlotte show I will be facing the left side of the stage in sec. 107 . And the Duluth Georgia show I will be facing the right side of the stage in sec. 105 . Can u believe it ? These are the best seats I have ever gotten . The July 29,2009 show at bojangles coliseum in charlotte n.c. I sat in sec. 112 and this time I scored sec. 107 which is much closer . I am a happy Tool Fan .
