Firstly, etc43, you are of course right.

anarcho-commie, I got into Tool from one song, and enjoyed it so much that I had to hear the album. Vicarious getting played on the radio at all is surely a good thing (I live in the UK and I've heard Tool no more than twice on the radio ever). If more people get in to Tool because they heard Vicarious on the radio then that means that they're listening to the album (even if that album is 10,000 Days).

Schism was the first Tool song I ever heard, as a result of that I went out to buy Lateralus, then snapped up a chance to see them live, and now I think they're probably the best band around today. Maybe Vicarious getting airplay will have the same effect.

That's not what I'm talking about though. I think everyone got misconceptions from this thread. What I'm trying to say is the exact opposite of what you said. I'm talking about people who settle for one Tool song (vicarious) and dont even take the time to get into more Tool songs. Just listen to that one song and think that they're big Tool fans.

Have faith my man. Tool's music being on the radio will lead to people really getting into the band, thus becoming real fans in the process... Having said that I'd be happier if they played Jambi on the radio. Much better tune imhbco.

And then they "claim Tool." And school is not a credible source of information. And you're a true OGT, even though you were 2 years old when Opiate was released. We get it. Why are you still explaining away the ridiculous shit you've posted so far? You made an ass of yourself, you're an idiot, and you should be embarrassed that you're still trying to rationalize your vapid and inconsequential opinions. Shut up.

Wow, anarcho-commie! Congrats on being the most hated on poster I've seen in a while! Doesn't that feel great deep down inside? Oh no, wait, that's just our big internet cock giving you a total ass fucking! (I think we can all agree that you probably like it.) Have a nice day!

Yes, they claim Tool, claim that they are #1 tool fans when in reality they just only heard one song. School isn't a credible source of information. That's fact. You're taught nationalist propaganda. Things that make your country look good. Even an idiot would understand that. And how much of an ass do you have to be to think that I was actually being serious about the "true OGT" shit? I was mocking those people that do like to consider themselves true OGTs. How fucking hard is that to understand. If I was being serious, would I have put a ":D" at the end of the sentence? Use common sence.

Seattle is nice! We got a large local music scene here, lots of great radio, lots of shit to do. It's not bad here. Oh, and the Gorge in central Washington I hear people say it's one of the best places in the country to see a concert, and I have been there a few times and I am going to see tool on the 27th there. Seclusion, practicly out in the middle of nowhere, in the Gorge, and the huge ass Columbia river flowing nearby, none the less, It's a great place to see any band!

Must be her car because if it was your own, you would be in control of the radio.
If mommy is still driving you, I assume you can't be more than 20 and if so, for shame. Were you listening to Tool when you were 7? Because Undertow was released in '93. You didn't start at the beginning of Tool either, so get off your high self-important horse.

You enjoy Tool on your own level. Get as deep into it as you like because hell, it's an experience to do so. But don't harp on the new guys just getting interested in Tool. You think you have some sort of holy ground to defend? Saving all of Tool-dom with your heroics? Fending off the new generations of Tool fans from the ones who have been enjoying it for many years? Spare us your theatrics.

I don't see how Tool getting exposure on the radio is bad. Tool isn't exactly an underground band or well-kept secret. They are almost mainstream... so much so that when Lateralus was released the local Top40 and pop radio stations here gave Schism some airtime. Very odd hearing Tool sandwiched between Britney and Mariah. But it may mesmerize a few interested people who will find more depth and meaning in bands like Tool. These people may become more what you deem acceptable and less what you obviously hate so much.

You do need to get a grip though because you overreacted in a major way back there.
Live and let live. Ignore the ignorant. Your Tool will never be their Tool so don't worry about it.

YES, "Vicarious" is getting overplayed. Tool is a pop band. End of thread.

Here's a crazy idea:


Not judging who is and isn't a 'real' Tool fan.


How could you possibly measure that? By who heard them first? By who's seen them the most? One person could have heard the first half of a Tool song and be unbelievably compelled by it - so much so that she or he appreciates it more than someone who is a 'real' fan. Someone who knows every single tiny thing about the band and the music that she or he has gathered from years of gigs, VIP passes, websites, newsletters and magazine cuttings.

Who the fuck are we to decide who is worthy of listening to them. Who the fuck are we to assume that we know how to identify a 'real' Tool fan to someone who just wants in on 'the scene'?


Get a grip.




Oh, and Liquid Identity 010... nice work.

definitely. some people need to introduce to the idea of getting a grip, as oppose to justifying their undying love for the band by slating that of others.

I'd say someone who actually goes out and buys the bands albums are fans. I see plenty of people where I live who know about Tool only from the songs played on the radio. Fans? I think not.

On Theend up here in Seattle, both Vicarious and The Pot are common, along with older TOOL like Parabola, Lateralus, Prison Sex, Sober etc, and I've also heard a couple of times Jambi and Rosetta Stoned too!

Damn. I wish Columbus had a rock station like that. The Blitz and The Big Wazu only play Tool's songs that were released as singles and nothing else, in between Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, Nickleback and a bunch of other bands I hate. That's why my car radio is always tuned to the AM stations.

Anyone else dig the Al Franken show on Air America?

Yeah I see what you mean. If they haven't ever really listened to a Tool song and instead claim that they 'know' the songs (after just hearing them once or twice on the radio) then they - as oppose to people who have spent a little more time listening to the music might not appreciate it as much.

But then it doesn't mean the music didn't hit them as hard as those who have the albums.

To me I think being a 'fan' is over rated. What matters is what you get out of the music - not what you know about the band's history or how many times you've seen them live.

I'm no law student, so here's what wikipedia has to say on it:



"Anarchist communism is a form of anarchism that advocates the abolition of the State and capitalism in favor of a horizontal network of voluntary associations through which everyone will be free to satisfy his or her needs.

Anarchist communism is also known as anarcho-communism, communist anarchism, or, sometimes, libertarian communism. However, while all anarchist communists are libertarian communists, some libertarian communists, such as council communists, are not anarchists. What distinguishes anarchist communism from other variants of libertarian communism is the former's opposition to all forms of political power, hierarchy and domination."

There's a whole page on it here:

And this might help too
(also from wikipedia)

"Anarchist communists reject the claim that wage labor is necessary because people are by "nature" lazy and selfish. They point out that even the so-called "idle rich" sometimes find useful things to do despite having all their needs satisfied by the labor of others.

Anarchist communists support communism as a means for ensuring the greatest freedom and well-being for everyone, rather than only the wealthy and powerful. In this sense, anarchist communism is a profoundly egalitarian philosophy. Anarchist communists do not think that anyone has the right to be anyone else's boss."

i think vicarious got played once on the one rock station in birmingham

but now tool friends, pay attention to the lyrics in hooker with a penis
spreading the love isnt that bad, itll get more people listening to actual good music.
it sucks that they bleep the songs up and all that, but ask yourself- when i turn on the radio, would i rather hear my chemical romance or tool?

if we lived in a perfect world... it would be a communist world.
communists, unfortunately, are unrealistic idealists. humans, on the whole, are a bunch of selfish fuckers, eutopia never works.

as for the whole fan thingy, chai_nese hit it on the head with it being over rated. If people like listening to music... they should be alowed to enjoy listening to it. They should also have the right to claim they are a fan of that song. If they went around claiming to be a die hard tool fan after hearing only a couple of songs on the radio, then yes you have something to bitch about. Personally in my neck of the world those people dont tend to exist, but then i cant speak for you.

What really DOES get up my nose, is people who think they are somehow superior because they own all the albums and dvd's and shirts and go to the gigs. Fair enough, you'd know more about the band then people who only have one release... does it mean you've more right than that person to enjoy their music, or some extra ability to understand that same release? I particularly dont think so.
