Yea it was pretty good suprisingly. I thought it who evers side you were on ( Adam, Justin) that would be the dominant sound but not at the pearl. The sound was awesome and the visuals were great. I'm getting to old for the floor so this was a nice change sitting for some parts of wings 1 & 2...lol.

I don't know how Tool normally responds to such antics, but I had to cringe when the guy ran on stage. I mean, if he knows anything about the band he'd realize that 10,000 days was probably the WORST song to choose to try and run up on stage. I thought there might be some "retribution" from the band...which leads me to my next point: I love Tool, I read about them, use them as inspiration for my own art (writing), and like their no bullshit ideology. With that said, I can't help but feel a little disappointed that thousands of fans' experience can be lessened by one individual's actions. Although I can't help but think, perhaps it was the crowd's reaction (raucous cheering) that really angered Maynard, and not the idiot that stormed the stage. Either way, the experience was great, but I never thought that I would walk away from a Tool concert feeling slightly cheated.

I think it sucks that Maynard always does that. If ANYTHING happens, something thrown or someone coming onstage or him messing up a lyric or two, he always just stops the entire song and quits like a baby. It's like dude, what happened to wrestling old boy to the ground while not missing a beat? Let security take him down, and then continue. To just stop and basically whine and cry without using words, that's being a baby. You're rich enough from these fans who paid good money to see you, don't act like a dick and cut short the show cuz 1 guy walked on the stage. OOOOHhhh grow up MJK. At least a little bit.

I know it sucked, but then I hear about the last two night's of this tour some asshole jumps on stage during 10k days (reno) then last night (cox arena) some dumb-ass yells during wings and then some other dumb-ass is pointing a laser pointer an Maynard and Chancellor ,seriously why would you pay to go see them just to try and fuck up the show? Some people just have no respect for what is happening in front of them.

Danny and Blair (I've never seen him, just an assumption) were hanging out in the bar at the palms before the 4/27 show. It was awesome, he was wearing a pumpkin orange shirt.

I saw Camella taking pics up in my section (303) during Wings. At least I'm pretty sure it was her. Standing at the railing taking pics with a badass camera during the whole song, right when the lasers were kicking and shit. Then she was gone. I want to see them!!!!!

Yeah, I saw that too. She was right next to me in the 313 box Saturday night taking a bunch of shots during Wings or Rosetta. I was gonna ask her if she was responsible for Adam's pig-tails, but she was gone before the song ended.

This show was far better than the 1st night in Las Vegas.

The band was on and from 303 the sound was very clear.

I recommend sitting in 303 if you ever go to The Pearl. I did not like my 203 seats.
