If you really are on the west coast you should have no complaints, you will get plenty of shows in your vicinity no matter where you live you guys(the west coast) always get the most shows total. I really hope that the New Orleans and Houston rumors are accurate because it gives us (the state of Oklahoma) a better chance of getting a show(we have had one on this tour 5-19-07). It wont be long now though and we will have all the answers sounds like the Tour Dates are right around the corner!!! Good luck to everyone!!

Good news for Tool fans in Seattle. I was just on the local rock station's (KISW) web site and they have a rotating headline part on the home page and one of the headline's says coming soon info on Tool. Also I get KISW weekly e mail and it said that a band we all know is coming back to Seattle and heres a hint: There old logo is 8==<.

There it is! Yes, a good list. But not good enough until I have filled it out through the end of this tour! I am a big 10,000 Days fan. I'm sorry for those that don't get it.
You got a lot of two nighters, and debuts i.e. "Wings" and "Pushit". I am truly envious.

my friend called me today freaking out because she heard on the radio that they're playing in austin november 14th!! i can't believe they're coming back to texas again but i'm definitely taking full advantage of that!! i can't fucking wait!!
did someone say they were playing in houston too?? that'd be perfect. 2 more shows would make my year perfect.
Re: General Tool tour questions / discussion (merged)
I heard on Houston radio that Tool is playing the Toyota Center in Houston on 11/16/07. I wonder if they're going to slide a San Antonio show in for the 15th?
Re: General Tool tour questions / discussion (merged)
this is the best news i've heard since.... ummm the last time i heard they were coming back around!! i really really really hope i get to hear them play flood!!

I'm seriously gonna shit guys. This is so fucking exciting. They're gonna play near my wee little home town where I grew up, near Saskatoon, and Saskatoon is so small (like 229,000), and it's only like six hours away. I was worried the nearest place would be like Denver or SF. AWESOME!!!!!!!

Let's just hope they play Anchorage or the Seattle, Portland area. Would love to see the LA shows at that new Nokia Theater but $700 in airfare is a little steep. Just glad I was able to see them twice at the Staples Center and both shows at the Pearl in Vegas.
Re: General Tool tour questions / discussion (merged)
i'm thinking about making the trek to the casper, wyoming show does anyone know of any hotels or motels right by the casper events center? thanks for the help.

i know that. cuz you know, i am from australia. but this is a tool board, not a ratm board. also if i wanted to see ratm i would have done so 11 years ago.
anyway i am glad to see tool playing up in saskatoon and wyoming. i would guess the LA shows would be the last, or in the last few dates.
Re: General Tool tour questions / discussion (merged)
wooooooooooo-oo-oooh... KISW.com (seattle rock station) has a big banner scrolling on their home page saying info on TOOL coming to the PNW is soon to come!

Re: General Tool tour questions / discussion (merged)
Of course I will be at both LA shows. Gotta wonder if that's really it for us? The 10,000 Days tour has been going on for a while. The band doesn't owe anyone anything, especially after the extensive touring. Hell, they don't set the dates or location; their management does that in tandem with the promoters.
I honestly cannot wait to see them at the Nokia. There's a lot of hype going around about that place.

Hopefully, they will do something interesting for the LA shows being that it's a two-nighter in their hometown. Maybe debuting "Intension"? Actually they probably will seeing as almost every two-nighter that you've gone two has had a debut of some kind.

Re: General Tool tour questions / discussion (merged)
Anyone from the east coast interested in a road trip for the LA shows?? I know some people in AZ and few other spots along the way, and I'm sure we all know someone, somewhere along the way. I'm thinking it could be an interesting and rather humerous experience. While I'm at it, does anyone have any road trip advice, tips, success stories???

<sigh>.. OK HEAVY FREAKIN SIGH! :P
Sure I want them to do Intension as it is on the album. But you should know by now, the are probably going to do the following instead
Jambi
Stinkfist ( extended )
46&2
Schism ( extended )
Rosetta Stoned
Flood ( with intro )
Lateralus ( with Danny's solo )
Vicarious
Having been a professional musician for a while, I know how hard it is to get random tunes inserted into a tour set. But Tool has easily inserted songs like Pushit and Swamp Song into their set this tour.
Honestly, this is Maynard's fault for not changing things up. I will listen to whatever they have to play, and I love 10,000 Days. So if that's all they play, then I am happy. But not playing Intension is the one thing that defies all logic. For whatever reason Maynard has decided not to sing that certain song and it really bugs me.
