That's still one of the best concerts I've ever been to, in fact that was my first Tool show. I'd love to get my hands on a copy of that. If my memory is right, I believe MJK wore nothing but white boxers while his body was painted completly purple with white and black poke-a-dots. Wild. Do you recall who the warm up band was for that show?
According to distortiononline, it was Lodestar and Foil.

Well who ever it was, I was shocked that the guy was there to see them and not Tool.
Yeah, that is kinda shocking...kinda like when I got a free ticket to see the Rolling Stones at the horseshoe, who I respect, but don't care for a lot of their songs. The opening band was Blues Traveler, who I loved at the time, and I left in between the shows. The security guys at the gate thought I was nuts.

I'm afraid I'm gonna have to side with the security guys on that one :)

Just personal taste, AND, like I said, the ticket was given to me...if I had it to do over, I would stay for the show now, but I was by myself, surrounded by old people, and wanted to party with my friends, who were not at the show.

I've done that before. I saw Megadeth open for Dio in '88 and, being no big fan of Dio, left with my friend before his set started so we could end it on a high. Pun intended.
Sounds like a fun day Frank. Mine will be fairly similar. I'm thinking to head toward Cincy around 1:30 pm, which will put me near the venue by 4. Maybe hit the horse track for betting and drinking a couple hours. Then head to the parking lot to check out the tailgating situation. Probably won't head into the venue until after 8, but I'll look for you and you wife in your TA shirts.

Hope to see you there, Miller. River Downs will be an ideal place to drink due to it's proximity, provided your walking skill has not been affected!
Just found this on River Downs' website:
Join us each Friday during live racing in our Thirst N Howl Tiki Bar. There is no better place to unwind from the week. The atmosphere is laid back. The view is panoramic. Watch the horses prepare for the race and the fantastic finish as they both happen right in front of the Tiki Bar. To top it off, drafts are only $1.50 until 9pm every Friday. If a tropical drink is more your style, we serve them all. Get your Tiki on and join us for Bud Select Fridays. It’s a party with a payout!
A buck fifty drafts?! Um, yeah, I'll be over there!

Holy living Jeebus, I wasn't aware of that! Could this be a tdn meetup place?
Duuuude that's the meetup place for sure man. Let's do it!
I say we exchange some phone numbers so we can actually find each other. Anybody that plans on going to Riverdowns for beers shoot me a PM and you're real name, and I'll reply with mine.
For out of towners, Riverdowns is directly next door to the venue, so you can park and go to either or. This sounds like a perfect place to hang out before the show.
*edit*

Haha, not sure how I missed that post the first time. Maybe because the show was still so far away. I'm definitely up for meeting up there though. I'll be there with my brother probably between about 4 and 6.

Sent you a PM. Hope to be able (and functional) enough to meet with some of you. Just to let you know, I'm hard of hearing (yes, really) so if I do meet any of y'all be cool if I ask you to speak up. It's one of the reasons I tend to avoid people. Oh well, my wife usually acts as my translator and I doubt any of you are anything but the cool people you seem to be. Let's let this one rock.
Bogart, you up for this? Would love to shoot the shit over Halloween.

+1 for Burn. If during the show, let me know where and when. Doubt we'll have a problem...so long as we're cool. Even better if it's outside River Downs in the parking lot, wink.
The day has finally come folks. Seemed like when tickets went on sale the show was still sooo far away, but here we are.
I'll be headed out around 3, going to pick up my friend, and getting there around 4. I'll be enjoying some beers at Riverdowns then headed to the show and rockin' the pit for the first time at a TOOL show. By far the best tickets I've ever had to see them, and probably the best seats I'll ever have.
headin out...was planning on twittering the set list tonight but my updates arent showing up...i dont know what the deal is... heres the address but i cant guarantee it will work: www.twitter.com/corynew
hallo guys...just landed in cincinnati checked into eastgate holiday inn and going to dinner then over to the venue around 6:30 or so..after our 17 hour greyhound journey 5 pm was just to early we are feeling completely fucked up so we are heading for coffee right now...
